Other Information
The Remote Control Doesn’t Work
• Something might be between the remote and the remote sensor on the component. Make sure there is a
clear path.
• Maybe the remote isn’t aimed directly at the TV/VCR.
• Maybe batteries in remote are weak, dead or installed incorrectly. Put new batteries in the remote.
(Note, if you remove the batteries, you may have to reprogram the remote to operate other components.)
• You might need to drain the remote’s microprocessor: remove batteries and press the number 1 button
for at least 60 seconds. Release the 1 button, replace the batteries, and (if necessary) program the remote
again.
Problems with V-Chip/Parental Controls
The rating limits don’t work
• You must lock the settings. Go to the TV/VCR MAIN MENU (press MENU on your remote), select Parental
Controls (press 4 on your remote), select Lock Parental Controls (press 4 on your remote).
I don’t remember my password and I want to unlock the TV/VCR
• If you forget your password, simultaneously press STOP/EJECT on the TV/VCR front panel and MENU on
the remote. This resets the password and you can enter a new one.
The V-Chip won’t let me watch a program even though it’s not rated as violent.
• Maybe the movie was given an NR (Not Rated) status. After you block movie ratings, you must set NR to
View separately in order to view movies with an NR rating.
