Advanced Operations (Remote Control of TV)
This section explains how to use the VCR's remote control to operate your TV. It also shows
you how to hook up a cable box and how to connect a second VCR for a complete home
entertainment system.
Controlling Your TV with the VCR's Remote
Compatibility
The remote control is designed to be compatible with many televisions and cable
converters, but will not work with every one made. If your TV or cable box does not
respond the way it should when you program it as explained below, this remote may be
incapable of operating it.
Once you have programmed the remote, you won't have to do it again until you change
the batteries.
This Hitachi remote control can be used with your TV as well as the VCR, as long as
your TV comes with a remote control. This feature comes in handy - you don't have to
juggle two remotes.
The remote control is compatible with the fourteen makes of TVs listed next page - but
don't be alarmed if yours is not on our list. You may still be able to program the remote
for your TV.
Every TV that comes with a remote control is set up to detect certain infrared signals.
You need to program the VCR's remote control to send signals that your TV will
recognize and respond to. Here's what to do:
Programming the Remote Control
Turn the television on (any channel is okay).
Aim the VCR's remote control at your TV set. Hold down the TV button (not the
TV/VCR button) while you press the number corresponding to your brand of television
as shown in the chart (page 37).
