The VCR channel is the channel on the TV which will display the audio and video signals from the VCR. The VCR's CH3- CH4 switch sets the VCR channel to CH3 or CH4.

The CH3–CH4 switch is preset to the CH3 position. Set to CH4 if CH3 is used for broadcasting in your area.

If your TV has no AV input terminals, set the channel on the TV to correspond to the CH3–CH4 switch on the back of the VCR.

Even if your TV has AV input terminals, you must connect it to the VCR using an RF cable in order to record one show while watching another (pg. 34).

For full identification of the VCR's rear panel, refer to the Index (REAR VIEW pg. 54).
