First Things First
5
• If you connect your VCR using the ANT. IN and RF OUT
connectors with RF coaxial cable, set the 3 CH. 4 switch to
channel 3 or channel 4 — the channel you want to use on
your TV.
• If you connect your VCR using the AUDIO/VIDEO jacks
with audio/video cables, select the TV’s video input with
the remote control’s INPUT button to see the signal. If you
have trouble understanding the Video Input Channel,
look to page 68 for a more detailed explanation.
STEP 6: turn on the VCR
Press POWER on the VCR’s front panel or the VCR button on the
remote control to turn on the VCR. The first time you turn the
VCR on, a menu screen appears. This is the start of an initial set
up which helps you set different options for your VCR.
Step 7: Initial Setup
The first on-screen menu during the initial set up asks which
language you prefer to use for your VCR. Use the remote
control’s number buttons to select options.

1. Press 1 for English, 2 for Español (Spanish), or 3 for Français
(French).
The remaining menus throughout the set up will appear in the
chosen language. Just follow the step-by-step procedures until
setup is complete.
If the menu does not appear:
• Make sure the TV is tuned to the same channel as the 3 CH. 4
switch or the TV’s Video Input Channel (see page 68 for more
information).
• Make sure the VCR indicator is on in the VCR display if you
connected your VCR using the ANT. IN and RF OUT jacks.
• Check your connections.
If you chose to set up your VCR options individually, then go to
the next section.
VCR Viewing Channel
When using the ANT. IN and RF OUT
jacks to connect your VCR, tune your
TV to channel 3 or 4.
The 3 CH. 4 switch on the back of the
VCR determines which TV channel is
used to see the VCR’s output.
When using the AUDIO/VIDEO jacks
to connect your VCR, tune your TV to
the TV’s Video Input Channel with the
TV and INPUT buttons on your
remote control. For more information
about selecting your video input
channel,
see page 68.
