Note:

When recording, set Audio Out to FIX (see “Selecting variable audio OUT” on page 35). With Audio Out set to FIX, the TV’s volume setting during recording will not affect the sound level being recorded.

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.

Note:

If you have S-VHS VCRs, use S-video cables instead of standard video cables.

Do not connect a standard video cable and an S-video cable to Video-1 (or Video-2) at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

Do not connect the same VCR to the output and input jacks on the TV at the same time.
