plays when you turn on the VCR,
check your hookups, then try again.
If you still do not see any on-screen
displays, follow the steps under
“Automatic Channel Setup” on page

page 16.

the VCR, then press the MENU but-

SET UP will flash on the screen. When channels are set up, the TV

the CHANNEL o/p buttons, you’ll only scan through channels
that you receive.
