Basic recording steps
Note: You may use a blank tape or you may record over a previously recorded (erasable)
tape.
1 Turn on TV and select the video channel (3 or 4).
Or, if you are hooked up with an audio/video cable, set the TV to AUX or VIDEO.
2 Insert a blank or erasable tape.
The power comes on automatically and the tape indicator lights on the display.
• If a cassette without its safety tab is inserted, playback starts automatically, and you cannot
complete the record operation.
3 Press the DISPLAY button.
