Before turning on your VCR, make sure there are batteries in the remote control and the VCR and TV are connected (see pages five and seven-10).

You can not set up channels if you are using a Cable Box/DBS.

The instructions on this page only work when you turn on the VCR for the first time. If there is a power failure or if the VCR is unplugged for more than one minute, you may need to repeat the instructions on this page.

Helpful Hints

If you do not see any messages when you turn on the VCR, check your hookups, then try again. If you still do not see any messages, follow the steps under “Automatic TV Channel Setup” on page 12 and “Choosing a Language” on page 16.

If you try to set up channels when there is no antenna or cable connect- ed to the VCR, channel setup will appear to take place. Eventually, AUTO SET UP will appear on the screen steadily, and channel setup will stop. Connect an antenna or cable to the ANT(enna) IN jack of the VCR, then press the MENU but- ton, the F.FWD button, or the REW(ind) button again. Channel setup will begin again.
