Use a composite video cable to connect the AV receiver’s V VIDEO 1 OUT jack to a composite video input on the recording VCR. Use another composite video cable to connect the AV receiver’s V VIDEO 3 IN jack to a composite video output on your TV or playback VCR, as shown.

Audio Connections

Use an analog audio cable to connect the AV receiver’s VIDEO 1 OUT L/R jacks to an audio input on the recording VCR.

To play back a video in the recording VCR via the AV receiver:

Use an S-Video cable to connect the AV receiver’s S

Notes:

The AV receiver must be turned on for recording. Recording is not possible while it’s in Standby mode.
