If TURN ON TV appears on the display panel, you need to turn on your

of the Initial Setup of the DVD Recorder. You cannot see the Initial Setup
screens until you turn on the TV and have it on the right S-Video In channel.

not channel 3 or 4 as it might be when using a VCR. See your TV owners
manual for details. Or, go to your lowest TV channel and change channels
down until you see the DVD background picture or Initial Setup screen on
the TV screen. The Initial Setup screen will appear the first time you turn on the

On the TV, the S-Video In jack
may be labeled Y/C, S-Video, or
S-VHS (super video).
If you plan to watch your TV
with the DVD Recorder off, con-
nect the supplied RF coaxial
cable to the Recorder’s TV jack
and to the RF IN or ANTENNA
IN jack (75 ohm) on your tele-
vision. This lets you watch chan-
nels at the TV normally when
the DVD Recorder is off and
will improve the reception at
your TV.
