Perform Plug&Play setup
Plug the AC power cord into an AC outlet. Do not turn on the
VCR. The clock and tuner channels will be set automatically. The
time and date can be set automatically by the clock setting data
transmitted from one of the regular TV broadcast channels. We
call this TV channel the “host channel” and it is a PBS channel in
your area.
ATTENTION:
If you use a cable box, Plug&Play will not function; set the clock
and tuner channels separately.
What to do if Plug&Play setting failed
● If an incorrect time is displayed on the display panel, perform
the “Semiauto Clock Set” or “Manual Clock Set” procedure.
● If “–:– –” appears on the display panel, ensure that the antenna
cable is connected correctly. Then turn on and off the VCR; the
Plug&Play setting will be automatically reactivated. If Plug&Play
setting is not performed though the antenna cable is connected
correctly, perform “Manual Clock Set” and “Auto Channel Set”
or “Manual Channel Set”.

Set VCR channel
The VCR channel is the channel on which you can watch the
picture from the VCR on the TV when only using the RF
connection. Press POWER to turn off the VCR, then press STOP/
EJECT (
0 ) on the VCR for more than 5 seconds. “CH3”
appears on the display panel. Press CH+/– on the Remote to
select “CH3”, “CH4” or “CH–”(OFF), then press OK.
● The VCR channel is preset to “CH3”. Set to “CH4” if CH3 is
used for broadcasting in your area.
