Setting Up Your VCR

Your VCR comes with MitsubishiÕs exclusive on-screen operating system. This system has been developed to simplify the operation of your VCR with clear, easy-to-understand language and design.

Before your VCR can receive television channels or you can program your VCR to record, you need to memorize all of the channels you can receive into your VCR and set the clock. Additionally, if you are using a satellite receiver, you need to do a first time setup to memorizing satellite brand code. Fortunately, your VCR makes this an easy process with our menu system.

When using the on-screen menus, use the JOG/SHUTTLE control on the remote control, not the front panel. Use the ADJUST dial to move the highlight bar up or down and to change the setting of selected features. Turn the SHUTTLE ring to the right to enter a selection or adjustment (the ENTER button may also be used for this). Turn the shuttle ring to the left to cancel or clear a setting (the CANCEL button may also be used for this).

Using ALLSETª to Set Up Your VCR Automatically

ALLSET will automatically set the clock, memorize all of the television stations available to you and set the VCR Plus+ guide channel numbers.

You need to manually set the brand code for the satellite receiver.

If your local cable company scrambles some or all stations, and/or requires you to use a cable box, then your ability to program channels would normally be limited. The cable box receives all of your channels, then sends only one to your TV and your VCR, usually on channel 3 or 4.

If you are required to use a cable box, you should choose Cable box only or Digital Cable box only option in step 4 on the next page and turn the cable box on. Your HS-HD2000U will use its Converter Box Control technology to change the channels on the cable box. Make sure you have properly placed the IR Emitter (see page 11).

If your cable box or cable system seems incompatible with your new VCR, call your cable company. They may be able to provide solutions to your problems.

1Make sure you are viewing the picture coming from your VCR. Press MENU on the remote control. VCR Main Menu comes up. If First Time Set-Up is not highlighted, use the ADJUST dial on the remote to highlight it.

2Turn the shuttle ring on the remote control to the right. First Time Set-Up menu will appear. AllSet will be highlighted. Turn the shuttle ring to the right.

IMPORTANT

If you are recording, playing back a tape, Not available will flash and an error message will appear. To correct this, stop the tape.

3You will see the AllSet explanation screen. Turn the shuttle ring to the right.
