Hooking Up the VCR  
Choosing a Hookup  
The hookups on pages 3 through 5 are divided into two hookup types: Basic (A) and Advanced (B).  
The basic hookup shows the backs of TVs that have only an antenna/ cable connection. It is the easier of the  
two and additional accessories may not be needed.  
The advanced hookup shows the VCR hooked up to a monitor/ receiver (TV with audio and video jacks)  
using a signal splitter. This connection may improve the picture quality as well as convenience of operation.  
Answer the questions to choose the hookup for your VCR.  
1. How do you receive your TV signals?  
Choose one answer from below.  
A. Outside antenna – Turn to page 3.  
B. Rabbit ears (set-top) and/ or bow tie antenna – Turn to page 3.  
C. Cable System – Go to question 2.  
2. What type of Cable-TV system* do you have?  
Choose one answer from below.  
A. Cable without a box – Turn to page 3.  
B. Cable box to unscramble all the channels – Turn to page 4.  
C. Cable box to unscramble only pay channels, such as HBO, Showtime,  
Cinemax, etc. – Turn to page 5.  
*You may need to contact your local cable company for assistance.  
Optional Hookups

5. Use the on-screen menu system.  
Point and Select is the method you use to move through the menu system. There are two ways to  
accomplish this method. One is using the MENU•PROG and number buttons on the remote that  
correspond to the numbered menu items. The second way is using MENU•PROG or MENU and arrow  
buttons on the remote or front of the VCR to point and select an item in the menu. Although there are  
two ways to access the menu system, only the number buttons are referenced throughout this manual  
to explain the VCR features and operations.  
Using the number buttons  
The number buttons allow you to point and select a menu item at the same time. They are also used to  
enter data and change settings of selected features.

Using the Remote Control  
Controlling a VCR  
The VCR’s remote controls two compatible RCA, ProScan or GE VCRs with the VCR1 and VCR2LD  
buttons. Most compatible VCRs automatically respond to VCR1 without being programmed. If you own  
two compatible VCRs, test them to see if VCR1 turns on both VCRs. If it does, then you may want to  
program this VCR to respond to the VCR2LD button on the remote.  
Program the VCR for remote control  
Set the Remote Control feature of the VCR to the VCR1 or

*Check your cable companys compatibility requirements.  
Cleaning the VCR  
Use a soft cloth or dusting attachment of your vacuum cleaner to dust your  
VCR. Remove dust from the ventilation holes on the top, back, sides, and  
bottom of the cabinet.  
Plastic surfaces are easily scratched and can be marred by alcohol and various  
solvents. Avoid excessive use of oil-based furniture polishes since the  
materials used in the cabinet will accumulate more dust. We recommend using  
a non-abrasive, anti-static cleaner and polisher.
