Correction
• Make sure TV is set to output of DECK.
• Check connections between DECK, external
antenna, and TV.
• Set VCR/TV selector to “TV.” (p. 21)
• Make sure proper signal source is selected.
• Insert the cassette with window side up; record tab
facing you.
• Make sure cassette record tab is intact. (p. 6)
• To enable Quick play mechanism, the cylinder will
rotate for about 3 minutes. This reduces response
time from Stop to Play mode.
• First, unplug DECK. Then, prepare a rigid wire
(e.g. an extended paper clip) and, applying
moderate force, insert it straight into the hole at the
base of the tray. The tray will eject a little. Now, pull
the tray all the way out and remove the disc. (p. 9)

Language selected at DVD initial settings does not
