Controlling Your TV with the Camcorder's Remote Control

The remote control is designed to be compatible with many televisions, but will not work with every one made. If
your TV 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 remote control can be used with your TV as well as the camcorder, 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 makers of TVs listed on the 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
camcorder 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 camcorder's remote control at your TV set. Hold down the CH ( ) button while you press the button
corresponding to your brand of television as shown in the chart (page 52).
For example, if you have an RCA television, press CH ( ) and DISPLAY at the same time. If this button
combination sends a signal that matches your TV, the channel will change on the TV, and you'll know the remote
is set to control the television.
• If that button combination does not change the TV channel, go through the whole list of button combinations one
by one until you find one that does change your TV channel.
Also, if your brand of TV is not listed in the chart, try all the buttons. One of them may work for you.
If the TV channel still doesn't change after going through all the button combinations listed, it is likely that you will
not be able to program this remote control for your TV.
