Before You Record
The VCR must be hooked up properly for recording. See the Simple Hookups at the beginning of this manual.
Copyright Infringement Warning
Most television programs and films are copyrighted. This means that someone has legal rights governing the
reproduction and distribution of this material. In certain circumstances, copyright law may apply to private in-
home taping of copyrighted materials. In most cases, it is okay to record for personal use, as long as you do not
sell the material. You must act responsibly in this area - check into the matter if you are unsure.
Basic Recording Steps
1. Load the videocassette into the VCR. The power comes on automatically when the tape is fully inserted.
2. Turn on the TV and select the video channel (3 or 4). Or, if you are hooked up with a direct audio/video cable,
set the TV to AUX or VIDEO.
3. Press DISPLAY, then press 5 when the SP/EP message appears on the TV screen, to select SP (standard
play, for the best picture quality) or EP (extended play, for longest recording time on a single tape).
4. Set the VCR to the channel you want to record from. Use the up and down CHANNEL buttons to flip through
the channels, or use the number buttons to go directly to the channel you want.
5. To begin recording, press REC on the remote control or REC/IRT on the VCR.
Recording will start unless the cassette is protected with the safety tab. If this tab has been removed, the VCR
will eject the tape to prevent recording over what is there.
