Unauthorized recording of copy- righted television programs, video tapes, or other materials may infringe on the rights of copyright owners and violate copyright laws.

If a program has copyright protec- tion, it may not record clearly.

These instructions show you how to copy tapes using two VCRs like yours. Different VCRs may operate differently.

The VCR in the figure above is the VRB612. If you have the VRB412, use a single-plug audio cable to con- nect the AUDIO OUT jack on VCR

1 to the AUDIO IN jack on VCR 2.
