Using the Remote Control

Controlling the VCR

The VCRÕs remote controls two compatible ProScan, RCA, or GE VCRs with the VCR1 and VCR2¥DVD
buttons. Most compatible VCRs automatically respond to VCR1 without being programmed. If you own
two compatible VCRs, test them to see if VCR1 turns on both VCRs. If it does, then you may want to
program this VCR to respond to the VCR2¥DVD button on the remote.

The remote then controls the VCR with either the VCR1 or VCR2¥DVD
button Ñ whichever position you select in the menu.
