POSSIBLE CAUSE/CURE
• Remote control is too far away from the main
unit.
• Point the remote control at the VCR.
• Batteries are flat - replace both.
• Batteries have not been inserted correctly.
• VCR is positioned in strong light.
• Adjust the position or angle of the satellite
receiver.
• Re-install all channels ensuring that the satellite
receiver is not in any special channel setting
mode and that the desired channel is below
channel 199 on your satellite receiver.
• Make sure the VCR is not in Timer or Menu
mode.
• The channel position has been set to be
skipped. Cancel the SKIP mode for that
channel.

plugged in.
• Make sure the RF OUTPUT has not been switched
off. (Refer to note on RF THROUGH ON/OFF in
