Getting Started (Initial Setup)
Once channels are preset, you can use the up and down CHANNEL buttons to move
through the active channels. Or you can press the number buttons to move quickly
between channels that are far apart.
Removing Channels
You may not want to keep all the stations the auto-programmer selects, since you may
prefer to have only a few favorite channels in the tuner's memory. Or, you may want to
delete from memory a weak or unused channel that the tuner picked up.
Erased channels cannot be selected by the up and down CHANNEL buttons but can
still be selected by using the numbered buttons 0 to 9 and 100/ENT.
Adding Channels
Occasionally the auto-programming may skip an active channel because the antenna
was pointed in the wrong direction or the channel had a weak signal or was "off the air"
at the time of programming. Or you may change your mind about a channel you
removed from memory.
To Add or Erase Channels
Press GUIDE, then press 1 to bring up the First Initial Setup screen. Item 3 lets you
add or delete channels. Use the number buttons to enter the channel you want to
change, then press STOP to delete it or press PLAY to add it.

Choosing a Mode for Audio Playback

Choose between hi-fi and linear modes by pressing AUDIO MONITOR on the remote
control, depending on your needs.
HIFI is the preferred setting because it works for all tapes whether they were recorded
in hi-fi or linear modes. If the audio sounds distorted or unusual or there is no audio,
try the LINEAR option.
When you set the option to HIFI, hi-fi tapes will play in high fidelity, and non-hi-fi tapes
will play in linear mode.
When you set to HIFI, L and R on the level meter in the VCR display will light.
Hi-Fi sound is the same quality as that of a compact disc player. It's dynamic range of
over 90dB will record either stereo or monaural broadcasts with the highest quality
possible. Linear sound, on the other hand, will record monaural sound using the same
format as a non hi-fi VCR. Stereo programs are recorded in hi-fi on both the left and
right channels and also recorded on the linear track as monaural.
Stereo vs. Mono Sound
When you select the STEREO option, your VCR records in stereo any station that
broadcasts stereo sound. When a TV channel broadcasts in stereo, you'll see a
stereo indicator on the VCR display.
