You can now perform simple playback ( pg. 24 for the HDD deck, pg. 34 for the VHS deck) or simple recording ( pg. 23 for the HDD deck, pg. 35 for the VHS deck).

NOTES:

●For full identification of the recorder’s rear panel, refer to the Index (REAR VIEW  pg. 91).

●TV equipped with Audio and Video Inputs is required to operate the recorder.

●To make the most of the Super VHS picture performance we recommend that you use the supplied S-VIDEO cable to connect your recorder to a TV with an S-VIDEO input connector.

●To operate the recorder with your TV using the S-VIDEO connection, set your TV to the AV mode using the TV’s remote control. You can also use the TV/VCR button on the recorder’s remote control to set your TV to the AV mode. ( pg. 82)
