Default Admiral 23 or 25" TV 15-18 Years Old

My mother-in-law has an older Admiral TV and she needs to use the
monitor in or A/V jacks to view her VCR. She lost the book and the
remote for the TV and I haven't found the right combination of buttons
to find it yet, but it has to be hid in a menu somewhere. The front
buttons at the bottom are audio, video, setup, volume +/-, channel +/-
and Power. Between the video and menu buttons I found a listing for
video monitor but am unable to access. Anyone got any idea how I
access the video in on this set; don't have a model # handy right now.

For now, try connecting the vcr via the RF cable - all vcrs have a
modulator . In the US, I believe that outputs on VHF band, ch 3 or 4.

Av is often via a dedicated button on the remote, or '0'. Is the
rmeote the original one that came with the Tv? If not, get a new
universal remote and try that. I have seen these in US walmart for
about $12.

With some models of sets, if you use the channel down button as if to
try to go below channel 2, it will go to the A/V inputs.

With many models of sets, the original factory remote is required to
be able to select the external video.
