6 Press the STANDBY-ON y button on the front of the DVD Recorder to turn on the DVD Recorder. The STANDBY-ON light will turn green.

If “TURN ON TV” appears on the display panel, you need to turn on your TV and set it to the correct S-Video In channel. (See next step.) This is part of the Initial Setup of the DVD Recorder. You cannot see the Initial Setup screens until you turn on the TV and have it on the right S-Video In channel.

7 Turn on the TV power. Set the TV to the correct S-Video In chan- nel. This is not channel 3 or 4 as it might be when using a VCR. See your TV owner’s manual for details. Or, go to your lowest TV channel and change channels down until you see the DVD background picture or Initial Setup screen on the TV screen.

The Initial Setup screen will appear the first time you turn on the Recorder. Go to page 16 to continue.

Helpful Hints

•Set the Analog output accord- ingly. Details are on page 57.

•If you prefer or need to use the VIDEO OUT (CVBS) or COM-

PONENT VIDEO OUT Y PB PR jacks instead, see pages 10 and 12. You only need one video connection. Remember to choose the correct Video In channel at the TV.

•If you plan to watch your TV with the DVD Recorder off, connect the supplied RF coaxial cable to the Recorder’s TV jack and to the RF IN or ANTENNA IN jack (75 ohm) on your television. This lets you watch channels at the TV normally when the DVD Recorder is off and will improve the recep- tion at your TV.
