It’s essential that your video recorder be properly connected.

THESE STEPS MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE ANY VIDEO OPERATION CAN BE PERFORMED.

A Check the contents.

Make sure the package contains all of the accessories listed in “SPECIFICATIONS” on page 98.

B Situate the recorder.

Place the recorder on a stable, horizontal surface.

C Connect the recorder to TV.

ADisconnect the TV aerial cable from the TV.

BConnect the TV aerial cable to the ANTENNA IN connector on the rear panel of the recorder.

CConnect the provided RF cable between the ANTENNA OUT connector on the rear panel of the recorder and the TV’s aerial connector.

DConnect the provided 21-pin SCART cable between the AV1 (L-1) IN/OUT connector on the rear panel of

the recorder and the TV’s 21-pin SCART connector.

● The AV1 (L-1) IN/OUT connector accepts and delivers either a

composite signal (regular video signal) or a Y/C signal (a signal

in which the luminance and chrominance signals are

separated). If your TV’s 21-pin AV input connector (SCART) is

compatible with the Y/C signal, set “L-1 OUTPUT” to

“S-VIDEO” after the connection and the initial settings are

completed ( pg. 64). You can obtain high-quality S-VHS

pictures. (For connection, be sure to use a 21-pin SCART cable

that is compatible with the Y/C signal.)

● Set your TV to the VIDEO (or AV), Y/C, or RGB mode

according to the type of your TV’s SCART connector.
