Helpful Hints

•Set Digital output. See page 59. Otherwise the Stereo may pro- duce a strong, distorted sound or no sound at all.

•Your Stereo must support MPEG2, Dolby DigitalTM or Digital Theater System (DTS). Check your Stereo manual.

•You may use Component Video or S-Video at step 3 instead for higher picture quality. See pages 12-13.

•A small, square, black cap pro- tects the OPTICAL OUT jack. Remove the cap to use the jack; replace it when the jack is not in use.

•To watch TV with the Recorder off, connect the RF coaxial cable to the Recorder’s TV jack and to the RF IN or ANTENNA IN jack (75 ohm) on your TV. This lets you watch channels at the TV when the Recorder is off and will improve TV reception. See page 10 for this hookup.
