Before turning on your VCR, make sure batteries are in the remote control and the VCR and TV are connected correctly.

Follow the steps on this page only when you plug the VCR power cord into the wall outlet for the first time.

You can not program channels if you are using a Cable Box or a Direct Broadcast System.

If you are not using a Cable Box/DBS, the clock may set itself automatically after you connect the antenna/Cable signal to the VCR and plug in the power cord. The time will appear on the display panel.

Connect an antenna or cable to the VCR’s ANT(enna) IN Jack and press the CH(annel) o button again. You may need to fol- low the steps on page 12.
