Connect the TV and recorder using a SCART cord (not supplied) to the LINE 1 – TV jack and your TV.
Be sure of a firm connection to avoid hum and noise.
See the operating instructions supplied with the TV to be connected.
When you set “Easy Setup - Line1 Output” to “S Video” or “RGB” (page 27), use a SCART cord that
conforms to the selected signal.

Notes

• When you connect the recorder to your TV via the

SCART jacks, the TV’s input source is set to the
recorder automatically when you start playback. If
necessary, press TV/DVD to return the input to the TV.

• For correct SMARTLINK connection, you will need a

SCART cord that has the full 21 pins. Refer to your
TV’s instruction manual as well for this connection.

• If you connect this recorder to a TV with SMARTLINK,

set “Easy Setup - Line1 Output” to “Video.”
