Playing a Video Cassette

• Turn on the TV.

• If the VCP is connected to the TV via the RF

OUT jack, tune the TV to the same channel 
(3 or 4) as the Channel 3/4 switch on the
back of the VCP.

• If the connection in mode via the VCP's

Audio/Video Out jacks, your TV must be set
to receive audio and video from an auxiliary
source. (Refer to your TV operating 
instructions.)

• To view a VHS cassette tape, insert it into the

cassette compartment. The VCP will 
automatically turn on, play the tape to its
end, rewind the tape, eject the tape, and shut
off. If necessary, use the TRK (TRACKING)
control to adjust for the best picture.

Normal TV Viewing

To watch TV, simply place VCP in TV mode by
pressing TV/VCR on the remote repeatedly until
the TV/VCR indicator light disappears from the
VCP front panel. If the TV antenna or cable-TV
line has been connected to the VCP as shown
in this manual, its signal will pass through the
turned-off VCP unaffected, as if connected
directly to the TV.
