You can use the supplied audio/video cable, leaving the yellow video plug disconnected. Make sure you match up the left and right outputs with their corresponding inputs for correct stereo sound.

Connecting to a cable box or satellite receiver

If you have a cable box or satellite receiver with a built-in decoder, connect it to this recorder and your TV as shown

on this page.1 If you are using a separate decoder box for your cable/satellite TV, set up following the instructions on the next page.

Using the setup on this page you can:

•Record any channel by selecting it on the cable box, satellite receiver or digital terrestrial receiver.

•Change channels and set timer recordings on the external receiver using the GUIDE Plus+® system (via the G-LINK™ cable, and after setting up).

Important

•Do not connect this recorder to your TV ‘through’ your VCR, satellite receiver or other component. Always connect each component directly to your TV or AV amplifier/receiver.

•When using the GUIDE Plus+ system to make a timer recording from an external receiver, make sure that the external receiver is switched on.

This enables you to watch discs.
