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 15).
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.
