Precautions

Safety

•Operate the unit only on 120 V AC, 60 Hz.

•If anything falls into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

•This unit is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.

•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if you do not intend to use it for an extended period of time. To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, never by the cord.

•One blade of the plug is wider than the other for the purpose of safety and will fit into the power outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact your Sony dealer.

Installing

•Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat buildup.

•Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation slots.

•Do not install the unit near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.

•Do not install the unit in an inclined position. It is designed to be operated in a horizontal position only.

•Keep the unit and cassettes away from equipment with strong magnets, such as microwave ovens or large loudspeakers.

•Do not place heavy objects on the unit.

•If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, moisture may condense inside the VCR and cause damage to the video head and tape. When you first install the unit, or when you move it from a cold to a warm location, wait for about three hours before operating the unit.

Step 2: Setting up the remote commander (continued)

Notes

•With normal use, the batteries should last about three to six months.

•If you do not use the remote commander for an extended period of time, remove the batteries to avoid possible damage from battery leakage.

•Do not use a new battery with an old one.

•Do not use different types of batteries.

•Some Sony AV receivers may not be operated with the remote commander.

Controlling other TVs with the remote commander

The remote commander is preprogrammed to control non-Sony TVs. If your TV is listed in the table below, set the appropriate manufacturer’s code number.

1 Set TV RECEIVER / VIDEO at the top of the remote commander to TV RECEIVER .

2 Hold down `/1, and enter your TV’s code number(s) using the number buttons. Then release `/1.

Now you can use the `/1, VOL +/–, CH +/–, and TV/VIDEO buttons to control your TV. You can also use the buttons marked with a dot (∙) to control a Sony TV. To control the VCR, reset TV RECEIVER / VIDEO to VIDEO .

Step 3

Hookups

Selecting the best hookup option

There are many ways in which your VCR can be hooked up. To hook up your VCR so that it works best for you, first scan through the table below. Then use the accompanying diagrams and procedures on the following pages to set up your VCR.

If you have	Use	Refer to
TV that has audio/video inputs	Audio/video (A/V) hookup, then	Pages 9 and 10
	follow one of the hookups below.
Cable box that is compatible with the	Hookup 1	Pages 11 to 14

DIRECTV* digital satellite receiver	Hookup 5	Pages 27 to 29
Incompatible cable box with only a few	Hookup 6	Pages 30 to 34
scrambled channels, using an A/B
switch

After you’ve completed the connections, follow the instructions for setup. During setup, if you need more details on the procedure described, page numbers are provided where you can find complete, step-by-step instructions.

After you’ve completed the setup, you’re ready to use your VCR. Procedures differ depending on the hookup you used. For an overview, refer to “Quick reference to using the VCR” on the back cover of the supplied operating instructions.

Before you get started

•Turn off the power to all equipment.

•Do not connect the AC power cords until all of the connections are completed.

•Be sure you make connections firmly. Loose connections may cause picture distortion.

•If your TV doesn’t match any of the examples provided, see your nearest Sony dealer or qualified technician.

*DIRECTV is a trademark of DIRECTV, Inc., a unit of Hughes Electronics Corporation.

Audio/video (A/V) hookup	Pages 9 and 10

If your TV has audio/video (A/V) input jacks, you will get a better picture and sound if you hook up your VCR using these connections. In addition, for a true “home theater” experience, you should connect the audio outputs of your VCR or TV to your stereo system. If your TV doesn’t have A/V inputs, see the following pages for antenna or cable hookups.

If your TV has the S-Link™* (A/V bus control) function, hook up your VCR using the connection shown on page 10. Your TV will automatically switch to the A/V inputs for your VCR when you play back or operate menu on the VCR.

If you’re not planning to use your VCR to record programs, you’re finished setting up the VCR after you’ve made the connections shown on pages 9 and 10. If you want to record off-air or off your cable TV system, complete these connections first, and then go to the following pages for antenna or cable hookups.

Caution

Connections between the VCR’s VHF/UHF connector and the antenna terminals of the TV receiver should be made only as shown in the following instructions. Failure to do so may result in operation that violates the regulations of the Federal Communications Commission regarding the use and operation of RF devices. Never connect the output of the VCR to an antenna or make simultaneous (parallel) antenna and VCR connections at the antenna terminals of your receiver.

Note to CATV system installer (in USA)

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 82040 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
