Note:
• When you use a converter box with your
TV, the remote control may not operate
certain features, such as channel
y z,
channel block, favorite channels, or
channel labels.
• If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono
to the VCR’s AUDIO OUT terminal using
only one audio cable.
• If you have a VCR with S-video, use an
S-video cable (plus the standard audio
cables) instead of a standard video cable
for better picture quality. Do not connect a
standard video cable and an S-video cable
to VIDEO-1 on the TV back (or VIDEO-3
on the TV front) at the same time, or the
picture performance will be unacceptable.
The unauthorized recording, use, distribution,
or revision of television programs, videotapes,
DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under
the Copyright Laws of the United States and
other countries, and may subject you to civil
and criminal liability.
