Connecting to a Television without Audio In and Video In Jacks

1. Disconnect the VHF antenna leads from the back of the television. Leave the UHF antenna
leads connected.
2. Connect the VHF antenna lead to ANT IN of the RF output adapter. If the cable on the VHF
antenna lead is flat you need to purchase an antenna adapter (300-ohm to 75-ohm transformer).
Connect the antenna adapter to the VHF antenna lead and slide the adapter on to the ANT IN
terminal.
3. Connect the 75-ohm coaxial cable of the RF output adapter to the VHF antenna terminals on
the back of the television. If the television is set up to connect to a flat antenna lead you need to
purchase antenna adapter (75-ohm to 300-ohm transformer). Connect the adapter to the 75-ohm
coaxial cable of the RF output adapter and connect the free ends of the adapter to the VHF
antenna terminals at the back of your television.
4. Connect the RF output adapter cable to the AV IN/OUT jack of your camera/recorder.
5. Turn your television on and select channel 3 (channel 4 if channel 3 is a channel used in your
area).
6. Select the CH3 or CH4 on the RF output adapter matching the channel selected on your
television.
7. Insert the previously recorded cassette into the camera/recorder.
8. Hold down the red button on the CAMERA/OFF/VIDEO switch while sliding the switch to
VIDEO.
9. Press the PLAY button to begin playback.
10. Press the STOP button when finished.

Simple Playback (Using the Electronic Viewfinder)

1. Insert the cassette ("Inserting and Removing Cassettes," p 17).
2. Hold down the red button on the CAMERA/OFF/VIDEO switch while sliding the switch to
VIDEO.
3. Press the PLAY button and enjoy your video.
4. Press the STOP button when finished.

Using Still

To view a still picture during playback press the Start/Stop. Press the Start/Stop button again to
resume playback. If you leave the camera/recorder in play/pause mode for more than 5 minutes
the camera/recorder automatically stops the cassette to prevent damage to the tape.
Note: When you engage play/pause mode the still picture will have some interference or noise. This
is normal.
