“Playing and Recording Programs” in the
User’s Guide
. You must use

To connect a VCR:
1. Connect a Composite A/V cable
from the
Audio/Video Output 2
connector on the Recorder to the
Audio/Video Input
connector on
the VCR. This will allow you to
copy recorded programs to video
tapes.

cable from the
Audio/Video
Output
connector on the VCR to
the
Audio/Video Input 2
connector on the Recorder. This

recordings from video tapes to
the Recorder (so you can turn
your home videos into DVDs).

RF Out
connector on the VCR to the
Antenna/RF In
connector on the TV. Then press the
Input, Source, or TV/Video button on your TV until you see channel numbers
