STEP 1 Connection

Make sure to use the pair of supplied RF coaxial cables

Use the pair of supplied RF coaxial cables only when you make connections to the unit through its RF IN and RF OUT terminals. Striping may appear and disrupt images on the TV if you use different cables for connection.

Before connection, turn off all equipment and read the appropriate operating instructions.

Select the connection pattern that matches your environment from pattern A–B. Confirm connections not listed below with your dealer.

When the unit is not to be used for a long time

To save power, unplug it from the household mains socket. This unit consumes a small amount of power, even when it is turned off

[approx. 2 W (Power Save mode)]

When “Power Save” is set to “On”, the “Quick Start” function does not work.

This unit is a DVD recorder with an integrated DVB tuner. This means that you can receive and record both analogue and terrestrial digital channels without having to connect an additional DVB receiving unit (set-top box).
