Note
•This connection ensures broadcast signals to be passed through to your TV. Unlike a VCR, you cannot assign channel 3 or 4 to playback from this recorder. The antenna input only passes through the broadcast signals to your TV.
Therefore to playback video from this recorder you must connect it to a video input on your TV. (See the next page.)
