AUTO PLAY

SETTING UP THE VCR

The VCR will only respond to the compatible remote’s VCR2, VCR2•LD, or VCR2•DVD button. If you change the remote setting to VCR2, the remote that came with your VCR will no longer control it.

Use the compatible remote to change the remote setting back to

VCR1. Display the PREFERENCES menu, press 1, and then press

VCR on the VCR’s remote.

AUTO PLAY

This feature allows the VCR to automatically start playing when you insert a tape with the safety tab removed. Press 2 to switch between ON or OFF.

•Select ON if you want a tape with its safety tab removed to start playing automatically when the tape is inserted.

•Select OFF if you do not want a tape with its safety tab removed to start playing automatically.

AUTO TV/VCR

This feature controls whether the TV/VCR switch changes automatically to the VCR mode. Press 3 to switch between ON and OFF.

•Select ON if you want the VCR to switch to the VCR mode when the VCR is turned on or a cassette is inserted. This only applies if you connect the ANT. IN and RF OUT jacks of your VCR and TV and watch your VCR on channel 3 or 4 of your TV.

•Select OFF if you want the VCR to remain in the TV mode. This is useful if you watch your VCR on the TV’s video input and you don’t want your antenna/cable signal interrupted by the VCR. Refer to the Connections section, toward the back of the manual.

Auto TV/VCR

Pressing TV•VCR will still switch between the VCR and TV mode.

VCR mode: VCR indicator in the display panel lights.

TV mode: VCR indicator turns off.
