NOTES:

●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, on the back of the VCR, 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 and set the channel on the TV to correspond to the VCR's CH3– CH4 switch setting.

●If RF connection to TV is used, when switching from VCR to TV mode and from TV to VCR it may be necessary to issue a CH UP and then CH DOWN on TV to obtain a good quality picture.

●Even if you are using AV 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. 39).

●For full identification of the VCR's rear panel, refer to the Index (REAR VIEW ☞ pg. 61).
