Note:

When you use a converter box with your TV, the remote control may not operate certain features, such as channel y z, channel block, favorite channels, or channel labels.

If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to the VCRÕs AUDIO OUT terminal using only one audio cable.

If you have a VCR with S-video, use an S-video cable (plus the standard audio cables) instead of a standard video cable for better picture quality. Do not connect a standard video cable and an S-video cable to VIDEO-1 on the TV back (or VIDEO-3 on the TV front) at the same time, or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

The unauthorized recording, use, distribution, or revision of television programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under the Copyright Laws of the United States and other countries, and may subject you to civil and criminal liability.
