Connecting the VCR to a Decoder/ Connecting the VCR to a Stereo Amplifier

To connect this VCR to a decoder or a stereo amplifier, make the connections shown in the illustration below.

For the connection to the TV, see pages 10 and 12.

For details about the connection, also read the operating instructions of the decoder or stereo amplifier.

Be sure to keep the VCR, TV and decoder or stereo amplifier switched off until you have finished all connections.

For your safety, do not connect or handle the equipment with wet hands.

To Connect the VCR to a Decoder

Decoder here refers to the device used to decode scrambled broadcasts (Pay TV).

When you start playback on the VCR, the TV is automatically switched to the VCR mode. However, during playback, it is not possible to switch the TV back to the TV mode.

If a Pay TV station has been selected on the VCR when you switch to the TV mode, the picture on the TV is scrambled when you select a Pay TV station on the TV. In this case, either switch to the VCR mode or select the AV input on the TV.

Hint:

“RGB” means separate Red/Green/Blue colour signals.

If you connect a TV equipped with RGB input capability to the AV1 socket f on this VCR, and a decoder equipped with RGB output capability to the AV2 socket g, the TV can receive RGB signal input from the decoder via the VCR.
