Before you start…

•Check that the VCR clock is set to the correct time and date.

•Insert a tape with its safety tab in place. Make sure the tape is longer than the total recording time.

•To record from a decoder, turn it on.

•Turn on your TV and set it to the video channel.

•Set OPTIONS PROGRAMM. to SHOWVIEW or MIXTE in the OPTIONS-2 menu (see page 68).
