Tuning the VCR

First, we recommend that you preset the

receivable channels in your area using

automatic presetting. Then, if some

channels could not be preset

automatically, you can preset them

manually; if there are any unwanted

channels among the preset ones, you can

disable the channels.

Before you start…

• Turn on the VCR and the TV.

• Set the TV to the video channel.
