You need to determine

buttons
on the remote control.
As you press the buttons,

Watch your cable box. Your cable box should
show the exact
same number
a moment
after it appears
on your VCR.
If your cable box does not change
channels
at all, or does not
show the exact same number,
do one of the following:
• Try moving the cable box on top of'_he VCR.
• If more than one "Brand
Code" is li _ted for your type of
cable box, try a different
one. (You can use the CANCEL
button
to move back to the "Brand
Code" option.)
After you haw_ determined
that you a:re using the c.orrect
Brand
Code, turn the _huttle
ring right to begin memorizing
channels.
The TV screen will show you a message
that
the
VCR is memorizing
the channels
coming from your cable box.
Your TV screen,
the front of your VCR, and your cable box
should all display
each channel
numb _r, one by one.
When the VCR is finished
memorizing,
it will return
to the VCR's
picture.

If no code number
is listed for your cable box, or if none of the
numbers
listed
wil! work, try each code, from 01 to 94.
If your cable box cannot be operated
by a remote control (i.e., if it
is operated
with a mechanical

to any o r the codes, your VCR
cannot
change
channels
on the cable box. You will need to change
