Correction
• Check that the Power plug is completely connected to an
AC (Alternating Current) outlet.
• Check that the Power button is set to on.
• Please complete "Placing Local Channels in the VCR" on
page 8 and "Setting the Clock" on page 10 before attempting
to set up a "Time Recording" on page 20- 21.
Otherwise, you may not be able to receive or record channels
above 13.
Correction
• Check the connections
between the VCR, the external
antenna, and your TV.
• Check that the band selected matches your antenna or
cable TV system (P.8).
• Make sure that the record tab on the back of the cassette is
still intact (P.5).
• Set the recording start/stop time correctly (P.20).
• Make sure that the POWER button is set to "OFF" (P.21).
• Timer recording may not be performed or continued if a
power interruption of more than 1 second occurs before or
during Timer Recording,
even if power resumes thereafter.
• Select the same channel on your TV as that of the VCR
Channel 3/4 switch (P.7).
• Set the VCR/TV selector to "VCR" (P.9).
• Check that channel 3 or 4 of the TV is properly adjusted.
• Adjust the Tracking control slowly in either direction
(P.22).
• Set the TV's Vertical Hold Control, if available, to
"MANUAL"
and adjust.
• Because the VCR playback signal is not as stable as an
off-the-air TV singal, the top of your TV screen may be
bent or unstable during playback. To solve this problem,
slowly turn the HORIZONTAL
HOLD control on your
TV to correct the wavy picture. If your TV does not have
the horizontal hold control or adjusting the control does
not help, please contact your local TV service center.
