The VCR supplies a signal to the TV via the RF coaxial cable on channel US3 or 4.

It is possible to view the video picture on your TV in the same way that you watch TV broadcasts.

If you have connected the VCR to the TV through the video and audio input sockets, then you do not need to follow the procedure below.

When the VCR is turned on after unpacking and connecting the antenna cable and the AC power cord, Plug in Auto Tuning starts automatically.

Plug in Auto Tuning

Auto Tuning searches for TV stations from VHF minimum to UHF maximum and memorizes every tuned program position.

Notes:

If the VCR is turned on with the antenna not connected, all channels are skipped.

When Auto Tuning is canceled halfway, Auto Tuning is not executed even if the VCR is turned off and then turned on again. In this case, see page 13 “To Restart Plug in Auto Tuning”.
