Attach The Tv And Vcr To The Power Supply; Install Batteries In The Remote Control; Set The Rf Or Video Channel Switch - Hitachi VT-M281A Owner's Manual

Introduction
If you have "rabbit ears" (an antenna on top of your TV), you will need an
additional adapter and 75 ohm extension to make your leads reach from
the antenna to the VCR. This connection will work only if you have a
strong, clear picture on the TV, indicating a strong signal. Connect the
antenna to the adapter, and use the cable extension to go from the
adapter to the VCR. Use the supplied 75 ohm cable to connect the VCR
to the TV.
Now continue with the hookup:
1. Using whichever adapter you have fit your antenna with, attach that
connector to the IN FROM ANT lower jack on the back of the VCR.
2. Using the 75 ohm cable supplied with your VCR, connect either end to
the OUT TO TV upper jack on the back of the VCR.
3. Use a second adapter to attach the other end of the 75 ohm connector
back into the TV (where you first disconnected the antenna).
Capabilities: With this hookup, you should now be able to perform all
basic functions provided by this equipment.

5 Attach the TV and VCR to the Power Supply

Plug in the TV and VCR power cords to the wall outlet or an appropriate
extension cord or surge protector. See Important Safeguards for further
precautions (page 6).

6 Install Batteries in the Remote Control

The remote control requires two fresh "AA" batteries. On the back of the
remote, a plastic cover
pushes off in the direction shown by the arrow. Remove this cover and
install the batteries, matching the plus end of each battery with the plus
mark on the remote.

7 Set the RF or Video Channel Switch

When the VCR is on, its video signal can come into your TV on either
channel 3 or channel 4. You need to select the appropriate channel.
Turn the power on to both the TV and the VCR, and look for a switch on
the back of the VCR. Set the switch to 3 or 4, whichever is not a
commercial channel in your area.
Your basic hookup is now complete. When you're ready to try hooking up
a second VCR or a video camera for a complete home entertainment
system, see Advanced Operations.
