Setting Up Your VCR
Making the right connections
It's essential that your VCR be properly hooked up for proper results. Follow these steps carefully. THESE STEPS MUST BE COMPLETED
BEFORE ANY VCR OPERATION CAN BE PERFORMED.
With a standard RF connection,
the VCR sends picture and sound
signals through the connecting
cable to your TV on channel 3 or
4. The VCR's switch is pre-set to
CH3 prior to shipment. Set this
switch to CH4 in areas where
channel 3 is used for broadcasting.
Back of VCR NOTES:
nTo operate the VCR with your TV using an RF
connection, it is always necessary to set your TV's
channel to the one you set the VCR to in this step.
nEven if your TV is connected using AV input
connectors, it is necessary to also connect your VCR
and TV using the RF cable if you ever wish to watch
a program while recording another (Zp. 23).
