Connections & Setup

Set the VCR’s CH 3/4 Switch

The CH 3/4 switch on back of the VCR determines what channel the TV must be tuned to see the VCR’s image. Choose whichever channel is not used locally in your area.

Note: If you connected components using A/V jacks and cables, the VCR’s signal must be viewed using the TV’s Video Line Input. To find the Video Line Input, refer to the manual that came with the TV or see How to Find Your TV’s Video Line Input on page 57 in the Other Information section of this manual.

Plug in the VCR

Your VCR’s power cord has a plastic band strung through the blades. Remove the plastic band before plugging the cord into the power outlet. To remove the band, cut with a pair of scissors and pull it free of the blades. Once the plastic is removed, match the wide blade of the power cord to the wide slot in the AC outlet. Be sure to insert the plug completely.

Put Batteries in the Remote Control

1.Remove the battery compartment cover on the remote control.

2. Insert new batteries matching the polarities (+ and –) on the batteries with the diagram in the battery compartment.

3.Put the battery compartment cover back on the remote.

Turn on the TV and VCR

Turn on the TV and press the VCR button on the remote control to turn it on.

Note: If you have an RCA, GE, or Proscan TV, your VCR’s remote control may be able to operate it without being programmed. Press the TV button on the remote control and then the ON•OFF button. If neither one turns on the TV, see Using the Remote Control starting on page 25 for details about programming the remote control to operate other brands of TVs.

Tune the TV

Tune the TV to the VCR viewing channel. The VCR viewing channel is channel 3, 4, or the TV’s video line input.

•If you connect your VCR using RF coaxial cable only, turn the TV to channel 3 or 4 (whichever was set on the CH 3/4 switch).

•If you connected the VCR using A/V jacks and cables, select the TV’s video line input. For more information see How to Find the TV’s Video Line Input on page 57 in the Other Information section of this manual.
