Hints:
•Q Link is an advanced system that offers a range of convenient functions such as automatic copying of the tuning position of all available TV stations into your VCR’s memory (this is called Download) if you connect the VCR to your TV with a fully-wired 21-pin Scart cable (not supplied). Depending on the manufacturer, the equivalent of the Q Link function has a different name and may not work exactly the same.
*1 [Q Link] is a registered trademark of Panasonic.
*2 [DATA LOGIC] is a registered trademark of Metz.
*3 [Easy Link] is a registered trademark of Philips.
*4 [Megalogic] is a registered trademark of Grundig.
*5 [SMARTLINK] is a registered trademark of Sony.
For details, refer to your TV’s operating instructions or consult your dealer.
•Unlike in most commercially sold 21-pin Scart cables, in fully-wired 21-pin Scart cables all 21 pins of one plug are connected to the matching pin of the plug on the other end of the cable.
•If the TV set is equipped with a 21-pin Scart socket that features Y/C signal separation, set the [Normal/S-Video Output] switch on the rear panel to [S-VIDEO OUT] so that you can play back with high picture quality and use a fully-wired 21-pin Scart cable
(not supplied) to connect the VCR to the TV.

Preset Download
(To Simultaneously Set Up this VCR with a New TV)
First of all, make sure that the VCR is switched off.
1)Switch the TV on.
