PLAY

To Receiver TAPE inputs

•Turn OFF the Fully Automatic mode. This is because some Tape decks, such as three-head decks, will have an output signal going into the Receiver during recording. The DAT or TAPE inputs may be incorrectly selected as an input, rather than the source you are trying to record.

•Manually select the source such as CD and play it through your system.

•Set your Tape player to record, and adjust the input levels for the best performance. Once the levels are correct, you can reset your source to the beginning and make your recording.

•Do not select another Main Zone input while you are recording.

Recording to a VCR

Any video source playing in the Receiver can be recorded using the left and right audio and the video outputs. The VCR will receive a straight copy of the source signal going in, unaffected by the volume, tone or any surround modes.

• Select the video source and play it

• Do not select another Main Zone source

while you are recording.

• The VID2/MON2 output can also be used

for recording, but Þrst make sure that it

is set to VID2 in the VIDEO menu of the

OSD (see page 37). This output will then

mute to prevent feedback whenever the

VID2 input source is selected.

• Do not use the OSD while recording, as

the incoming video is shut off while the

OSD is displayed
