●The clock and tuner channels will automatically be set when the antenna is connected and when the AC power cord is first connected to an AC power outlet (☞ pg. 8).

5 Set VCR channel

Press POWER to turn off the VCR and press STOP/ EJECT ( ¤ ) on the front panel for more than 5Ê seconds. “3CH” appears on the display panel. Press CH + and – on the Remote to select “3CH” or “4CH” for only RF connection, “–CH” (OFF) for RF and AV connection, then press OK.

(☞Ê pg.Ê 21) or basic recording☞(Ê pg.Ê 25).

NOTES:

●The VCR channel is the channel on which you can watch the picture from the VCR on the TV when only using the RF connection.

●Even if you are using audio/video cables to connect your VCR to your TV, you must also connect it using the RF cable. This will ensure that you can record one show while watching another (☞ pg. 26).

●For full identification of the VCR’s rear panel, refer to the Index ( ☞ pg. 63).
