Note:

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

If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.

If you have an S-VHS VCR, use an S-video cable instead of a regular video cable.

Do not connect a regular video cable and an S-video cable to Video-1 (or Video-2) at the same time.
