WELCOME TO YOUR NEW VCR,..
To help you get started using yourVCR with as little
reading as possible, we've put all the basic information
needed in the first three sections. There's even an
initial set-up feature the first time you turn on theVCR
that walks you through several set up steps at once.
GETTI NG STARTE D
Before this first step, though, learning about the time
and date, your remote control's features, working with
channels, and basic video tape operations are essential
to get all you can out of theVCR. Once you are
comfortable with these features, feel free to refer to
other sections because they cover more detailed
information.
WHAT REMAI NS?
The final sections of this manual contain playback and
recording information, a detailed Connections section
for various set ups, and a Reference section that has
troubleshooting tips, warranty information, and an
index.

STEP 1: REVIEW WHAT'S IN THE BOX
The following items come packed in the box:
•VCR
• Remote control
• RFcoaxial cable
• AAA Batteries
STEP 2: INSTALL BATTERIES IN THE
REMOTE CONTROL
Follow these steps whenever you need to install or change
the batteries in your VCR remote.
1. Remove the cover of the battery compartment.
2. Place the batteries into the remote's back panel. Match the
positive (+) and negative (-) ends of each battery to the
diagram inside the battery compartment.
3. Replace the cove_
STEP 3: CONNECT YOUR VCR TO A TV
If you connect your VCR to your home antenna or cable
system and then to your TV, use the VCR's ANT IN and RF
OUT jacks for a good signal as shown to the right.
If you have a TV with AUDIO/VIDEO jacks, use the jacks for
a better connection. See the Connections chapter in this
manual for additional connection options.
STEP 4: PLUG IN THE VCR
Your VCR's power cord has a plastic band strung through
the blades. Remove plastic band before plugging the
cord into the power outlet. To remove band, cut with a
pair of scissors and pull it free of the blades. Once the
plastic is removed, match the wide blade of the power cord
to the wide slot in the AC outlet. Be sure to insert the plug
completely.

STEP 5: TUNE TH ETV
Tune the TV to the VCR viewing channel. The VCR viewing
channel is channel 3 or 4 or the TV's video input.
If you connect your VCR using the ANTENNA connectors
with RF coaxial cable, set the 3 CH. 4 switch to channel 3
or channel 4 -- the channel you want to use on your TV.
If you connect your VCR using the AUDIO/VIDEO jacks
with audio/video cables, select the TV's video input with
the remote control's INPUT button to see the signal. For
detailed information, see "How to Find Your TV's Video Input
Channel" in the References chapter of this manual.
STEP 6: TURN ON THE VCR

on the remote control to turn on the VCR. The first time
you turn the VCR on, a menu screen appears. This is the
start of an initial set up which helps you set different
options for your VCR.
STEP 7: INITIAL SETUP
The first on-screen menu during the initial set up asks
which language you prefer to use for your VCR, Use the
remote control's number buttons to select options.

switch or the TV's video line input (see "How to Find Your
TV's Video Input Channel" in the References chapter of this
manual).
• Make sure the VCR indicator is on in the VCR display if you
connected your VCR using the ANT IN and RFOUT jacks.
•Check your connections.
If you chose to set up your VCR options individually, then
go to the next section.

TIME AND DATE
The VCR gives you two ways to set the time and date- manually,
and the Auto Clock Feature. The Auto Clock Feature enables the
VCR to update the clock each time the VCR isturned off. The
Auto Clock is advantageous because it updates the time for you
automatically.
Before you set the time and date, set the Auto DST (Daylight-
Saving Time) feature to ON or OFF for your area.

VCR channel list,
You can still access channels not

number buttons on the remote
control.

AUTO CLOCK SET
The Auto Clock Set feature is set to ON at the factory. In the ON
setting, the VCR looks for a channel carrying XDS (Extended Data
Services) information. XDS updates the clock automatically using
the Coordinated Universal Time.
To use this feature, certain steps are required such as Auto
Channel Search, setting the time zone, and setting the daylight
saving feature before the Auto Clock feature works.

With a cable box, the VCR will not
reset the clock after a power outage
unless the cable box is set to the
channel carrying the XDS signal.
If AUTO CLOCK SETis unsuccessful,
try tuning the VCR (or cable box) to
a channel carrying the broadcast
information (usually PBS), then turn
the VCR off. If the time does not set
within 10 minutes, set the time and
date manually through the menus.
