Troubleshooting (continued) Problem: The remote is not performing commands properly. • You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key (TV, VCR, DVD, SAT·CBL) so the remote knows which component you want to operate. • Make sure component is "ready" (e.g., DVD player has disc loaded; VCR has tape loaded, etc. • You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in. • If you're trying to turn on an RCA, GE or PROSCAN component, press the component key (TV, VCR, DVD, SAT·CBL) instead of the ON·OFF key. • If you're trying to change channels, try pressing the OK key after entering the channel number as this is a requirement of certain models and brands. • There is a possibility that a programmed code may only be able to control some of your component features (e.g., only turns a component on and off). To confirm that the component key is programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality, test the component. Attempt to control a variety of the component's functions with the remote. If some of the features of your components do not work, try programming the remote with a different code in the list (using the Direct Entry Method) until you find the code that allows the remote to control the majority of your component's functions. Different codes can provide different levels of functionality. Problem: The LED indicator light does not turn on when you press a key. • You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key (TV, VCR, DVD, SAT·CBL) so the remote knows which component you want to operate. • You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in. • Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed. (See Battery Installation on page 3.) Replace the batteries with two new AAA batteries, if necessary. Reprogramming may be required. Problem: The VCR won't record. • Make sure the remote is in VCR Mode. • Make sure the tape is properly loaded in the VCR. • Make sure the tape is not write-protected. If the safety tab is removed the tape is write-protected, and you cannot record onto that tape. Problem: The remote will not change channels on your component. • You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key (TV, VCR, DVD, SAT·CBL) so the remote knows which component you want to operate. • Press the OK key after you enter a channel number. 10 CR450_NA_IB_02.indd 10 1/30/07 1:01:30 PM
