Step 3 : Hookups
Selecting the best hookup option
There are many ways in which your VCR can be hooked up. To hook up your VCR
so that it works best for you, first scan through the table below. Then use the
accompanying diagrams and procedures on the following pages to set up your VCR.
If your TV has audio/video inputs, refer to pages 10 and 11 for audio/video (A/V)
hookup. Then follow one of the hookups below. If your TV doesn’t have A/V inputs,
go directly to one of the hookups below.
For hookup 1 or 2, use the Sony RM-CM101 Cable Mouse (cable box controller) (not
supplied). For details on obtaining a Cable Mouse controller, contact the Sony
Customer Information Services Center.

After you’ve completed the connections, follow the instructions for setup. During
setup, if you need more details on the procedure described, page numbers are

After you’ve completed the setup, you’re ready to use your VCR. Procedures differ
depending on the hookup you used. For an overview, refer to “Quick reference to
using the VCR” on the back cover.
