Presetting channels
First, we recommend that you preset the receivable channels in your area
using the One Touch Tuning function or AUTO PRESET in the TUNER
PRESET menu. Then, if some channels cannot be preset automatically, set
them manually. If there are any unwanted channels among the preset ones,
you can disable the channels.

To check if the channels are preset correctly
Set the TV to the video channel and press PROGRAM +/– on the VCR.
If the TV screen changes to a different programme each time you press
PROGRAM +/–, the channels are preset correctly.
If the sound is distorted or noisy, the VCR is set to a TV system different
from your area’s system. Select the correct TV system and preset channels
using the TUNER PRESET menu as shown on the next page.
Press and hold ONE TOUCH TUNING on the VCR for more than
three seconds.
The VCR starts presetting the channels.
