STEP 3: CONNECT YOUR VCR

If the VCR is connected to an antenna or cable system and then to the TV, use the VCR’s ANT. IN and RF OUT jacks for a good signal (see the diagram to the right).

If the TV has AUDIO/VIDEO jacks, use A/V cables to connect the two for a better picture. See the Connections section in this manual for additional connection options.

STEP 4: PLUG IN THE VCR

The VCR’s power cord has a plastic band strung through the blades. Remove plastic band before plugging the cord into the power outlet. To remove 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.
