Quick Tour of the Controls

Study these pictures carefully to learn about the buttons and controls that
you'll need for everyday operation. Various controls are explained
throughout this manual as they are needed, but now is a good time to get
familiar with their locations.
Most of the time, you'll be directing the VCR from the remote control, but
there are some controls on the VCR that will come in handy too.
When you're familiar with these basic controls, proceed to Setup (page
19). We'll show you how to program your local channels and set the clock
to make your VCR fully functional.
Pressing a button on the remote control transmits an invisible beam of
light (infrared) to a receiver at the right front of the VCR.
When using the remote, aim the front end toward the VCR and make sure
nothing - such as a coffee table or your dog - is blocking the path of the
infrared beam.
