•Make sure the Recorder is connected directly to the TV and tune the TV to the correct video input channel.

•Do not connect the Recorder’s AUDIO OUTPUT jack to the phono in jack (record deck) of your audio system.

•Do not connect the Recorder via another VCR. The DVD image could be distorted by the copy protection system.

•The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio may be distorted during playback. Position the units away from each other or turn off the unit after removing the disc.
