The first time you turn on the VCR or after a power
interruption, perform the

your VCR can memorize the channels available through
your signal source—cable or antenna.
Also, if you change the signal source, you will need to
perform
AUTO CHANNEL SEARCH again.

switch on the VCR or the TV’s video input (refer to
TV’s manual).

turn it on.
• Check the connections.
B . Press 3 to display the CHANNELS menu.

125 channels are searched for the strongest signals and
the letter C appears on the VCR’s display panel. If you
are using an antenna connection, 69 channels are
searched.
Wait until the channel numbers stop changing. This
takes about one to two minutes. The TV tunes to the
lowest channel found. Then, pressing

down selects only the active channels.
If you need to change the signal source setting, select 1 in
the CHANNELS menu.
