We call this TV channel the “host channel” and it is a PBS
channel in your area.

TTENTION:
Depending on areas or reception conditions, the VCR may not
receive the Auto clock setting data from a PBS channel. If this
function is taking a considerable amount of time, it may be
necessary to perform the procedure in “Semiauto Clock Set”
(
੬ pg. 8) or “Manual Clock Set” (੬ pg. 8).

used for broadcasting in your area.
F Final preparation for use

AV mode) on the TV. You can now perform basic playback or
basic recording.
● If you connect the TV and the VCR only using the RF

NOTES:
● The VCR channel is the channel on which you can watch the
picture from the VCR on the TV when only using the RF
connection.
● Even if you are using audio/video cables to connect your VCR to
your TV, you must also connect it using the RF cable. This will
ensure that you can record one show while watching another.
