How to fi nd your TV’s Video Input Channel
In order to see what’s playing on your DVD recorder, you need to tune the TV to the Video Input Channel that corresponds to the Input Jacks on your TV that you used
to connect the DVD recorder to the TV. The Video Input Channel(s) varies for different brands and different models of TVs.
RCA, GE, and Proscan TVs
If your brand of TV is RCA, GE, or Proscan, the remote control packed with your DVD recorder will most likely access the TV’s Video Input Channel—with the DVD
recorder turned on, press the TV button, and then press INPUT until you see the DVD recorder’s menu on your TV screen.
Other Brands of TVs
Since access to a TV’s Video Input Channel varies from one manufacturer to the next, it’s diffi cult to provide specifi c instructions for your particular brand. However, a list of
suggestions is provided below.
• Consult the Instruction Manual that came with your TV.
• If you can’t fi nd the information in the manual, or can’t fi nd the manual, review the following list.
• There might be a button on the TV’s remote control that accesses the Video Input Channel (see table below for examples).
• You might select the Video Input Channel from the TV’s menu system.
• You might tune to it by pressing a specifi c channel number (see table below).
• Press the Channel up and/or down buttons on the TV’s remote control (sometimes the Video Input Channel is stored in your TV’s channel list).
