Explanation of Buttons
You can use this remote to operate the DVD recorder, and to access the features available. The
remote is also designed to operate most RCA, GE, and Proscan components (TVs and satellite
receivers). If you have another brand, you can program the remote control to operate those
components (go to page 22 for instructions).
The descriptions that follow describe how each button works when operating the DVD recorder.
