●Your TV must have audio/video input connector for the connection to the VCR.

●Even if you are using audio/video cables to connect your VCR to your TV, you must also connect it using the RF cable. This will ensure that you can record one show while watching another ( pg. 29).

●For full identification of the VCR’s rear panel, refer to the Index ( pg. 83).

●If you cannot see the pictures on the TV screen when you play back a tape, set “TV OUTPUT 1” to the appropriate mode ( pg. 56).
