5 Power on the recorder.

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)
