This DVD/VCR cannot receive scrambled programs since it does not contain a descrambler. In order to receive scram-
bled programs, your existing descrambler must be used. Descrambler boxes are available from cable companies. Con-
sult your local cable company for more information concerning connection to their descrambler equipment. There are
many ways to connect your DVD/VCR to a cable system. Below are six common methods of connection.
