Selecting Channels
Your VCR can receive up to 68 VHF and UHF
channels, and up to 125 cable channels. The
VCR displays the channels as 1–125.
Notes:
• Channels 2–13 are the same for VHF and
cable TV, and cable companies usually
number them as they appear on the dis-
play.
• Since cable companies sometimes desig-
nate cable channels with letters or letter-
number combinations, a channel number
you see on the VCR’s display might differ
from the channel number displayed on
your cable box. You might need to experi-
ment to determine the proper cable chan-
nel designations for your cable system. For
more information, contact your local cable
company.
To change the channel, press
CH
or
CH

The tuner changes to the next higher or lower
channel stored in its memory.

If you press
CH
when the tuner is at
the highest programmed channel or

channel, the VCR enters the audio/video mode
and
AV
appears on the VCR’s display. Contin-
ue to press
CH
or
CH
until the highest or
lowest programmed channel appears.
To directly select a channel, press the number
buttons on the remote control for the desired

• To enter a three-digit number, first press
