Setting Up Your VCR

Memorizing Channels Automatically

Using this process, your VCR will automatically memorize all of the television stations available to you. You can later get rid of unwanted or unused stations.

If your local cable company scrambles some or all stations, and/or requires you to use a cable box, then your ability to memorize channels would normally be limited. The cable box receives all of your channels, then sends only one to your TV and your VCR, usually on channel 3 or 4.

If your cable box or cable system seems incompatible with your new VCR, call your cable company. They may be able to provide solutions to your problems.

1Set the VCRÕs input to tuner. To do this, press INPUT on the remote control until a channel number appears on the screen.

2Press MENU on the remote control. VCR Main Menu comes up. If First Time Set-Up is not highlighted, use the ADJUST buttons on the remote to highlight it.

3Press ENTER. First Time Set-Up menu will appear. Press the ADJUST buttons to select Memorize channels. Press ENTER.

IMPORTANT

If you are playing back a tape or receiving a video signal from an external input, Not available will flash and an error message will appear. To correct this, stop the tape or turn off the menus and switch the VCRÕs input to tuner.

4You will see the menu for sources connected to the VCR. Using the list below as a reference, press the ADJUST buttons to select the kind of antenna you connected.

¥Cable if you are using any cable combination, including a cable box with an A/B switch

¥Indoor/outdoor ant. if you use rabbit ears type or roof

mounted type antennas

After you have selected, press ENTER.

5An on-screen message will show you that the VCR is memorizing the stations you can receive. You can cancel the memorization at any time by pressing CANCEL. After the VCR has memorized all the channels, the screen will return to the VCRÕs picture.

IMPORTANT

Automatic channel memorizing may include vacant channels if there are stray signals or noise on those channels. If this occurs, you can manually delete the channels using the procedure in the section Adding and Deleting Channels.
