Note

If you cannot select “MD” even when you have pressed MD (VIDEO), press ?/1 while pressing MD (VIDEO) when the power is turned off. “VIDEO” will be switched to “MD”. To return to “VIDEO” do the same procedure. However, you cannot switch from MD to VIDEO or from VIDEO to MD when the system is in the Power Saving Mode (see page 9).

Make sure to match the color of the plugs and the connectors. To listen to the sound of the connected VCR, hold down MD (VIDEO) and press ?/1 when the power is turned off. This switches the “MD” function to “VIDEO”. Once you enable the “VIDEO” function, just press MD (VIDEO).
