Perform Plug&Play setup
Plug the AC power cord into an AC outlet. Do not turn on the
VCR. The clock and tuner channels will be set automatically. The
time and date can be set automatically by the clock setting data
transmitted from one of the regular TV broadcast channels. We
call this TV channel the “host channel” and it is a PBS channel in
your area.
ATTENTION:
● If you use a cable box, Plug&Play will not function; set the
clock and tuner channels separately.
To check the time, press the DISPLAY button or turn off the VCR.
What to do if Plug&Play setting failed
● If an incorrect time is displayed on the display panel, perform
the “Semiauto Clock Set” or “Manual Clock Set” procedure.
● If “–:– –” appears on the display panel, ensure that the antenna
cable is connected correctly. If Plug&Play setting is not
performed though the antenna cable is connected correctly,
perform “Manual Clock Set” and “Auto Channel Set” or
“Manual Channel Set”.
