Key Features Overview

The following information summarizes a few of these features. Chapter 3
provides more information about the rest of the VCR’s features and how to use
them.
Unified Remote Control

TVs with no additional steps and can control most other remote-controllable
devices with just a few programming steps.
Requirements: Point the remote at the active device to see if it can be operated.
Program the remote if necessary following the steps in this manual.
Front Audio/Video Input Jacks
Description: The VCR has Audio/Video (A/V) input jacks on both the front
and rear of the unit (there are output jacks on the rear panel only). The front
A/V jacks make it easy to plug in an external A/V device, such as a camcorder.

that all A/V connections are snug. To see a connected device’s image, turn the
VCR to its Video Line Input by pressing the remote control’s INPUT button.
ShowSaver™ Memory Protection

permanent memory so you’ll never have to worry about losing your programs
due to an extended power outage.

Pro-Tect Plus™ Locking
Description: Guards preprogrammed VCRs to help avoid frustrating recording
accidents or interruptions from children.
Requirements:
Set the VCR to Lock by pressing and holding the ON•OFF
button on the remote control for six seconds. SAFE will appear on the front
panel. The VCR unlocks by pressing and holding the ON•OFF button on the
