Set the VCR's CH 3/4 Switch
The CH 3/4 switch on back of the VCR determines what channel the TV must be tuned to see
the VCR's image. Choose whichever channel is not used locally in your area.
Note: If you connected components using A/V jacks and cables, the VCR's signal must be
viewed using the TV's Video Line Input. To find the Video Line Input, refer to the manual
that came with the TV or see How to Find Your TV's Video Line Input on page 52 in the
Other Information section of this manual.
Plug in the VCR
Your VCR's power cord has a plastic band strung through the blades. Remove the plastic band
before plugging the cord into the power outlet. To remove the band, cut with a pair of
scissors and pull it free of the blades. Once the plastic is removed, match the wide blade of the
power cord to the wide slot in the AC outlet. Be sure to insert the plug completely.
