You should use this hookup if you have a cable box, especially if your cable

recording process. A list of compatible cable boxes is on pages 39 and 40.
What you can do with this hookup
• Record any channel using the VCR’s cable box control feature to select
channels on the cable box
What you can’t do

• Record one channel while watching another channel
