Connecting/Using a Stereo System

These instructions enable you to connect your video recorder to 
your Hi-Fi stereo system (if you have one) and listen to the 
soundtrack through the stereo.

Make Connections

Connect the AUDIO OUT L and R connectors on your video 
recorder to the AUX IN or TAPE MONITOR terminals on your 
stereo system's receiver or amplifier.

NOTES:

When connecting your recorder's audio output connectors to a 
stereo amplifier, make sure you connect L and R correctly.

If stereo or bilingual TV broadcasts are receivable in your area, 
this recorder can record them independently of the TV set and 
play them back through the connected stereo system.

When listening to sound through the connected stereo system, 
turn the TV's volume down completely.

CAUTIONS

This recorder has a dynamic range of more than 80 dB with 
regards to its Hi-Fi audio capability. It is recommended that you 
check the maximum level if you are going to listen to the Hi-Fi 
audio signals through a stereo amplifier. A sudden surge in the 
input level to the speakers may damage them. 

Some speakers and televisions are specially shielded to prevent 
television interference. If both are of the non-shielded type, do 
not place the speakers adjacent to the TV set as this can 
adversely affect the video playback picture.
