OPERATION

WATCHING TV

Using the TV’s Tuner

To watch a broadcast using the TV’s tuner, turn off the VCR, or press TV/VCR until VCR does not appear on the VCR’s display.

Note: If you are using a TV/monitor connected to the VCR’s AUDIO/VIDEO OUT jacks, be sure to set the TV/monitor to the TV mode.

The antenna or cable signals pass through the VCR unaffected, as if the antenna or cable were connected directly to the TV. Use the TV as you normally would.

Using the VCR’s Tuner

1.Turn on the TV and set it to the same chan- nel as the VCR’s 3 CH. 4 switch.

Note: If you are using a TV/monitor con- nected to the VCR’s AUDIO/VIDEO OUT jacks, set the TV/monitor to the video mode.

2.Press TV/VCR until VCR appears on the VCR’s display.

Selecting Channels

Your VCR can receive up to 68 VHF and UHF channels, and up to 125 cable channels. The VCR displays the channels as 1–125.

Notes:

•Channels 2–13 are the same for VHF and cable TV, and cable companies usually number them as they appear on the dis- play.

•Since cable companies sometimes desig- nate cable channels with letters or letter- number combinations, a channel number you see on the VCR’s display might differ from the channel number displayed on

your cable box. You might need to experi- ment to determine the proper cable chan- nel designations for your cable system. For more information, contact your local cable company.

•Two of the cable channels are designated for audio only.

To manually select a channel, press CH s/t. The tuner automatically advances to the next channel stored in the tuner’s memory.

Note: If you press CH s when the tuner is at the highest programmed channel or CH t when the tuner is at the lowest programmed channel, the VCR enters the audio/video mode and LINE 1 or LINE 2 appears on the TV (see “Selecting the Signal to Record” on Page 28). Continue to press CH s/t until the highest or lowest pro- grammed channel appears.

To directly select a channel, press the number buttons on the remote control for the desired channel.

Notes:

•Precede a single-digit number with a 0 — for example 01, 02, and so on.

•To enter a three-digit number, press 100. Then enter the second and third digits in the channel number.

•(Model 61 only) If you receive MTS stereo or SAP broadcasts, see “Receiving/ Recording Stereo/SAP Broadcasts (Model 61 Only)” on Page 28.
