Caution:

If you want to record one channel while watching another channel, a splitter (not included) must be added between the cable and ANT-1. One output of the splitter connects to ANT-1 and the second output connects to IN on the cable converter box.

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 the S-video connections and remove the video cable. Do not connect the video cable and the S-video cable to Video-1 simultaneously.

When you use a converter box with your TV, there may be features that you cannot program using the remote control, such as programming your favorite channels, labeling channels, and locking channels.
