Things you must do before you can operate your VCR.

Connect the Power

(Required)

Plug your VCR into an unswitched

120 Vac, 60 Hz household power outlet. Turn on
the VCR by pressing the POWER on the remote
or on the VCR’s front panel. While plugged into
an AC outlet, the VCR consumes 3W of electrical
power in OFF condition.

Do not plug the VCR into a switched power 
outlet. Otherwise, when the power is
switched off, the VCR turns off. You may
then have to reset the time and date, and
reprogram operational features.

Set Position of the CH3/CH4 Switch

(Required)

The CH3/CH4 switch on the VCR’s

back panel determines which channel the VCR
uses to send video signals to your TV. The TV
must be tuned to the same channel you set with
the CH3/CH4 switch to see tape playback and
status displays from the VCR. To determine
which video channel provides the best picture
for your system, try the switch in CH3 position
and tune your TV to channel 3; then try the CH4
position and tune your TV to channel 4.

For a test display, press the TV/VCR button on
remote repeatedly until the VCR indicator light
appears in the VCR’s front panel display. Press
MENU on the remote to see the main menu.
