Multi-Brand Remote Control
This Remote can control some functions of remote controllable
TVs, cable boxes or DBS (Direct Broadcast Satellite) receivers

not function with a specified code, try other codes.

operated using this Remote.

sensor.

Changing Remote Control Code
This Remote is capable of transmitting two control codes; one set
to respond to A code control signals and another set to respond to
B code control signals. This Remote control is preset to send A
code signals because your VCR is initially set to respond to A
code signals. You can easily modify your VCR and the Remote to
respond to B code signals. When using two PANASONIC VCRs,
set two VCRs and their Remotes to different codes, so that you can
operate these VCRs separately.
A

B Press the Number key “2”.
C Press OK, and release A/B.

Check remote control code for VCR
Press and hold 4 on the VCR for more than 5 seconds while the
VCR is turned off. The code currently set appears on the display
panel.
C
Change code for VCR
Press any key on the Remote. The VCR now responds to B code
control signals.
● To set the Remote and the VCR back to A code control signals,

Number key “1” in step
B of 1 1 1 1.
To control two VCRs with the same Remote
You can control two PANASONIC VCRs by switching the remote
