VIDEO CHANNEL SET

TUNE THE TV TO VIDEO RECORDER

If you have connected the video recorder to your TV via both an RF cable and a 21-pin SCART
cable (AV connection), you do not need the video channel so you have to set the video channel to
off. — Go to "With AV Connection" below.

If you have connected the video recorder to your TV via an RF cable only (RF connection), you
have to set the correct video channel — Go to "With RF Connection" on page 7.

Video channel (RF output channel) is the channel on which your TV receives picture and sound signals from the video recorder
through the RF cable.

Before performing the following procedure, make sure that:

n

the mains power cord is plugged into the mains outlet.

n

the video recorder is turned off and there is no cassette inserted in
the recorder.

n

batteries have been installed in the remote control.
