WELCOME TO YOUR NEW VCR...

To help you get started using yourVCR with as little

reading as possible, we've put all the basic information

needed in the first three sections.To help you along,

there's even a QuickSet Guide which walks you through

several setup steps at once.

GETTING STARTED

Before this first step, though, learning about

the time and date, your remote control's features,

working with channels, and basic video tape operations

are essential to get all you can out of theVCR. Once you

are comfortable with these features, feel free to refer to

other sections because they cover the more detailed

information.

WHAT REMAINS?

The final sections of this manual contain playback and

recording information, a detailed connections section, and

a reference section including troubleshooting tips,

warranty information, and an index.

IFIRST THINGS FIRST

READ ME!

These note boxes give you tips for your

new video cassette recorder.

STEP 1: WHAT'S IN THE

The following items come packed in the box:

• VCR

• Remote control

• RF coaxial cable

• 2 "AA" Batteries

Box?

STEP 2: INSTALL BATTERIES IN

REMOTE CONTROL

THE

Follow these steps whenever you need to install or change the

batteries in your VCR's remote.

1. Remove the cover of the battery compartment.

2. Place the batteries into the remote's back panel. Match the positive

(+) and negative (-) ends of each battery to the diagram inside the

battery compartment.

3. Replace the cover.

STEP 3: CONNECT YOUR VCR

If you connect your VCR to your home antenna or cable system and

then to your TV, use the VCR's IN (FROM ANT.) and OUT (TO TV)

jacks for a good signal as shown to the right.

If you have a TV with AUDIO/VIDEO jacks, use the jacks for a better

connection. Refer to the section, Connections, toward

the back of the manual, for additional connection options.

STEP 4: PLUG IN THE VCR

Your VCR's power cord has a plastic band strung through the blades.

Remove plastic band before plugging the cord into the power outlet.

To remove band, cut with a pair of scissors and pull it free of the

blades. Once the plastic is removed, match the wide blade of the

power cord to the wide slot in the AC outlet. Be sure to insert the plug

completely.

CABLE/

TENNA

STEP 5: TUNE THE TV

Tune the TV to the VCR viewing channel. The VCR viewing channel is

channel 3 or 4 or the TV's video input.

If you connect your VCR using the IN (FROM ANT.) and OUT (TO

TV) jacks with RFcoaxial 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's TV and INPUT buttons to see the signal. See page 59

for more information about your TV's input channel.

STEP 6: TURN ON THE VCR

PressON-OFF on the VCR's front panel or VCR1 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 a QuickSet Guide which helps you

pick different options for your VCR.

STEP 7: USING THE QUICKSET GUIDE

The QuickSet Guide is an automated procedure that helps you set up

your VCR. The first time you turn on your VCR, the first screen of the

Guide appears.

Select a Language.

Choisissez une langue.

ii_li, s&l_

2 Francais

1. Press1 for English, or 2 for Fran_ais (French).

The remaining menus throughout the set up will appear in the chosen

language. Justfollow the step-by-step procedures until the interactive

setup is complete.

If the menu does not appear:

• Make surethe TV istuned to the samechannel asthe 3 CH 4 switch

or the TV's video input "channel" (seepage 59 for more information).

• Make surethe VCR indicator ison in the VCR display if you

connected your VCR using the IN (FROM ANT.) and OUT (TO TV)

jacks.

• Check your connections.

VCRViewing Channel

When using the ANTENNA jacks to

connect yourVCR, tune yourTV to

channel 3 or 4.

When using the audio/video jacks to

connect yourVCR, tune yourTV to

the TV's video input.

QuickSet Guide

If you choose not to use the QuickSet

Guide to set up theVCR, you can exit

now and return to the Guide through

Setup in theVCR MAIN MENU.

STEP 8: FINISHING YOUR SETUP

Setting up your VCR with the QuickSet Guide can take you to many

different on-screen displays depending on the options you chose. For

example, after completing the auto channel search, you will see a

screen asking if you want to set up your VCR to control a satellite

receiver.

SAT SETUP

Would you like to set

up the VCR to control

a SAT receiver?

2 No

Of course, if you have no satellite receiver, you will select "NO" for

this screen. If you do have satellite service, make sure you see the next

section, Setting Up Your VCR, for important information about how

your VCR works with your satellite receiver before you complete the

next steps in the set up.

Another important series of stepsin the QuickSet Guide is when you are

asked to set up your VCR Plus+ Gold programming system. Through

this system, your VCR automatically downloads information sent by

local broadcasters to assign channel numbers to corresponding stations

soyou don't have to "map" the channels manually (tell your VCR which

station is on what channel). This step is identified by the screen:

SETUP

The rest of the setup

may take a few hours to

complete. Would you like

to continue setup?

I Now

|I_ III;111

If you select "Later" in the SETUP menu, then downloading the

information will occur overnight. This method allows you to watch

and record programming, through your VCR, but you cannot use the

VCR Plus+ system programming codes until the next day (after all,

your VCR doesn't know which channel iswhich yet).

SETUP

The rest of the setup

will run automatically

at night. Please turn

off the VCR before

midnight.

Press MENU to continue

Using the Arrow Buttons

You can use the arrow buttons

on the remote andVCg's front panel

to access and select menu items.

Use the up and down arrows to

highlight a menu item, then press OK

(MENU on the front panel) to select

or change the chosen item. You can

also set or change some of theVCR's

features (e.g., setting the clock) with

the arrow buttons.

Use the left and right arrows to move

from one location to another, such as

moving from hours to minutes when

setting up a timer program.

If you select "Now," then you mustshut off the VCR. You will not be

able to use the VCR, but you can still watch your TV.

SETUP

The rest of the setup

will run automatically.

Please turn off VCR now.

Setup is complete when

"DOWN" & "LOAD" stop

flashing on the display.

Press MENU to cancel

You will see "DOWN" and "LOAD" flash on the display panel of your

VCR while the channel information is being gathered. Once your VCR

has all its data, DOWN and LOAD will stop flashing and the VCR

Plus+ GOLD programming system is ready to use.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

After DOWN and LOAD has stopped flashing on your VCR, you can

expect one of three things: your VCR was successful, partially successful

or downloading VCR Plus GOLD information failed.

A successful download means all information was gathered and you can

useyour PlusCode programming numbers. Partially successful meansthere

was a question about which downloaded channel information is correct.

SETUP

Your area has multiple

cable companies. Please

identify your cable

company by selecting the

list that matches your

channels.

Press MENU to continue

If this is the case, you will be asked to select which channels your local

broadcasters use with a screen that looks something like:

Select the row that

matches your channels.

TOON FAM WGN A&E

#I 45 35 3

#2 25 35 3

#3 37 96

#4 37 54 123

#5 58

#6 31 65 48

Press CLEAR to cancel

If asked to select which channels match your local viewing area, select

the proper corresponding numbers and then you will be ready to use

your PlusCode system numbers to record.

(Continued on Next Page)

If your VCR Plus+ GOLD system fails to download all the necessary

information for any reason, then you will be shown the screen:

SETUP

Last automatic setup

was unsuccessful.

Would you like to:

I Try again

2 Finish setup manually

3 Cancel the Auto Setup

If you try the setup again, then you will have to wait for DOWN and

LOAD to stop flashing on the front panel to see if data was gathered

successfully.

If you choose to manually set up your channel mapping, turn to the

next section, Setting Up Your VCR,for more information.

If you cancel the automatic setup, you should turn off AUTO VCR

Plus+ or you will keep getting the prompt that automatic setup was

unsuccessful since VCR Plus+ GOLD attempts to download new data

every time the VCR is turned off. You can do this by going to the MAIN

menu, then choosing (4) for CHANNELS, choosing (4) for VCR Plus+

setup, and then choosing (2) to turn off the feature.

For More Information...

If you are having problems with any

QuickSet Guide element, including

VCR Plus+, you can always set up your

preferences manually. See the next

section, Setting Up the VCR, for more

information.
