Additional Information

In manual recording, Timer recording, Instant Timer Recording, playback, or fast forward modes, the DVD+Hi-Fi VCR automatically starts rewinding the tape at the end of the tape. The cassette will stop at the beginning of the tape and be ejected, and the DVD+Hi-Fi VCR will turn itself off.

After you have finished using the DVD+Hi-Fi VCR, rewind, eject, and remove the cassette. Place the cassette in its protective sleeve to protect it from dust. It is not necessary to rewind the cassette before removing it, but if you do, it will be ready to play or record the next time you use it.

Be sure the DVD+Hi-Fi VCR Channel Selector is on the correct channel you wish to record. The channel that is being recorded can always be checked by tuning the televi- sion to the DVD+Hi-Fi VCR channel (3 or 4) and using the TV/VCR selector to turn the DVD+Hi-Fi VCR’s TV indicator off.

Do not attempt to hook up more than one television set to the DVD+Hi-Fi VCR for either recording or playback.
