To locate your auxiliary channel, which is usually not 3 or 4, but a gam-
ing channel found between 2 and 99 (example 2, 1, 0, 99), first try 00 to
see if it is the auxiliary channel. Channels downwards from 3 until a Line
1 or Line 2, Video 1 or Video 2, Front, Aux, AV, etc., appears on screen,
then push the power button on the game and it should automatically
come on if you have selected the correct channel. If this does not work,
another way to determine your auxiliary channel is to take a look at your
television remote. There may be a button on the remote that may take
you directly to the correct channel. The buttons you are looking for may
be labeled Input, AUX, AV, Line, TV/Video, or Video. If your remote has
one of these buttons, turn your television back to Channel 3 and select
that button. The power button on the game should be turned on in order
for the game to appear on the television. If your television remote does
not have any of these buttons, and channel 00 is not working, you may
need to search the main menu for a way to determine your auxiliary
channel. If none of these methods have helped you locate your auxiliary
channel, you may need to check your owner’s manual and/or contact a
local television repair company.
VCR
When connecting to a VCR, you must first start with a blue background
showing on your television screen. To obtain a blue screen, try inserting
a videotape into the VCR, let it start to play, then hit the stop button. This
may give you a blue screen, then you can channel down to your auxiliary
channel. If the blue screen still does not appear, try entering your TV
and/or VCR main menu and see if it gives you options to select a blue
screen background. Many times if you enter the main menu on your
television you can change the setting from cable to video and display a
blue screen. Also if you have an older television, you may locate a hid-
den door on your television that has color, picture, horizontal, vertical,
and cable, antennae buttons. If your television includes this panel, you
can select the antennae/cable button and see the blue screen appears.
If you have tried all of these options and are still unsuccessful connect-
ing the console, then you may need to check your VCR owner’s manual
or contact the manufacturer to find out how to set up your VCR for
console games.
Remember, you can’t play our games through a cable box or satellite, so
if you own one of these make sure it is turned off before connecting the
game. You can connect our games through DVD players with the same
connection as a VCR.
If you still have difficulty with setup or operation of your game, please
call our players helpline mentioned at the end of this manual.
