STEP 5: Tune THE TV

Tune the TV to the VCR viewing channel. The VCR viewing
channel is channel 3 or 4 or the TV’s video line input.

on your TV.

If the VCR is connected to the TV using the AUDIO/
VIDEO jacks and A/V cables, select the TV’s video line
input with the remote control’s INPUT button to see the
signal. See “How to Find Your TV’s Video Input
