TUNING  
SETUP  
This DVD+VCR is equipped with a frequency synthe-  
sized tuner capable of receiving up to 181 channels.  
These include VHF channels 2-13, UHF channels  
14-69 and CATV channels 1-125.  
Auto Channel Programming  
FUNCTION OSD  
The on-screen display can be turned on or off.  
AUDIO MODE  
The DVD+VCR has two separate audio playback sys-  
tems, the high quality VHS Hi-Fi system and standard  
NORMAL mono system. The same audio is generally  
recorded on both systems. The VHS Hi-Fi system  
plays on separate (left and right) channels, and the  
NORMAL system plays monaural sound. The normal  
track is always played so the cassette can be played  
on a DVD+VCR that does not have VHS Hi-Fi.  
1. Choose the SOURCE SELECT option, then use  
b / B to select TUNER.  
Use b / B to switch among TUNER, LINE1, and  
LINE2.  
2. Choose the AUTO CHANNEL SET option, then  
use b / B to find channels.  
• The tuner will automatically cycle through all  
available channels (TV/CATV) in the area and  
place them in the tuner’s memory.  
BROADCAST TYPE (STEREO/SAP/MONO)  
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) carries stereo  
and/or Second Audio Program (SAP) bilingual sig-  
nals. Set this display to the desired position when  
both MTS stereo and SAP signals are received.  
When only one of the MTS signal is received, the  
DVD+VCR automatically selects the corresponding  
receiving mode (Stereo or SAP) regardless of the  
selected position. For normal operation, the display  
should be in the STEREO position. The DVD+VCR  
will then record a STEREO program when available,  
and record a mono program IF the program is NOT  
IN STEREO. For weak STEREO and/or SAP broad-  
casts, changing the display to mono may give clearer  
sound.  
• After the AUTO CHANNEL SET is complete, the  
TUNING menu will hide and return to the TV  
screen automatically.  
3. Make sure the TUNING BAND is set appropriately  
(TV or CATV).  
• TV : If you are using a standard antenna to  
receive channels.  
• CATV : If you are using basic cable to receive  
channels.  
To Add or Erase Channels  
This feature allows you to add or erase channels  
from memory manually.  
AUDIO OUTPUT (STEREO/LEFT/RIGHT)  
Used during playback [when AUDIO MODE (HI-  
FI/NORMAL) is in HI-FI position] for selecting the  
audio output signals from the AUDIO OUT terminals  
(L ch and R ch), and RF.OUT. This display setting  
should normally be left in the stereo position, so that  
when a stereo tape is played, the stereo sound will  
be heard through the left and right channels. If a  
mono tape is played and the audio output is set to  
stereo, the same mono sound will be heard from both  
left and right channels.  
1. Choose the CH. ADD/DEL option, then use b / B  
to select a channel to add or erase.  
2. Use ENTER (OK) to add or erase the channel.  
Repeat steps 1 and 2 to add or erase other  
channels.

AUDIO  
LOCK (Parental Control)  
Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options.  
Set this unit’s AUDIO options according to the type of  
audio system you use.  
Rating  
Some movies contain scenes that may not be suitable  
for children to view. Many of these discs contain  
parental control information that applies to the complete  
disc or to certain scenes on the disc. Movies and  
scenes are rated from 1 to 8, depending on the area.  
DVD video discs may or may not respond to the  
parental control setting if the Area code of the disc is  
set wrongly. Some discs offer more suitable scenes as  
an alternative. Ratings are area dependent.  
Dolby Digital / DTS / MPEG  
Bitstream: Select “Bitstream” if you connect the  
DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to an  
amplifier or other equipment with a Dolby Digital,  
DTS or MPEG decoder.  
PCM (for Dolby Digital / MPEG): Select when  
connected to a two-channel digital stereo amplifi-  
er. DVDs encoded in Dolby Digital or MPEG will  
be automatically downmixed to two-channel PCM  
audio.  
The parental control feature allows you to block  
access to scenes below the rating you input, thereby  
preventing your children from being able to view  
material you believe is unsuitable.  
Off (for DTS): If you select “Off”, the DTS signal  
is not output through the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT  
jack.  
1. Select “Rating” on the LOCK menu then press B.  
2. To access the Rating, Password and Area Code  
features, you must input the 4-digit security code  
you created.  
Sample Freq. (Frequency)  
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of han-  
dling 96 kHz signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice  
is made, this unit automatically converts any 96 kHz  
signals to 48 kHz so your system can decode them.  
If you have not yet entered a security code you are  
prompted to do so. Input a 4-digit code and press  
ENTER (OK). Enter it again and press ENTER  
(OK) to verify. If you make a mistake before press-  
ing ENTER (OK), press CLEAR (0000).  
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96  
kHz signals, select 96 kHz. When this choice is  
made, this unit passes each type of signal through  
without any further processing.  
3. Select a rating from 1 to 8 using the v / V buttons.  
1-8: Rating one (1) has the most restrictions and  
rating eight (8) is the least restrictive.  
Check the documentation for your amplifier to verify  
its capabilities.  
Unlock : If you select unlock, parental control is  
not active and the disc plays in full.  
DRC (Dynamic Range Control)  
Note:  
If you set a rating for the player, all disc scenes with  
the same rating or lower are played. Higher rated  
scenes are not played unless an alternate scene is  
available on the disc. The alternative must have the  
same rating or a lower one. If no suitable alternative  
is found, playback stops. You must enter the 4-digit  
password or change the rating level in order to play  
the disc.  
With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s  
soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presen-  
tation possible, thanks to digital audio technology.  
However, you may wish to compress the dynamic  
range of the audio output (the difference between the  
loudest sounds and the quietest ones). This allows  
you to listen to a movie at a lower volume without los-  
ing clarity of sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.  
Vocal  
Set to On only when a multi-channel karaoke DVD is  
playing. The karaoke channels on the disc mix into  
normal stereo sound.

CHANNEL: Select a TV channel, LINE1 or  
LINE2.  
Checking or Erasing the Timer Program  
If you have CABLE TV and use a cable box (con-  
verter) you must set the channel to match the  
cable box output channel (usually CH 3 or 4).  
Change channels on the cable box instead of with  
the DVD+VCR. If you use a cable converter, you  
can program multiple recordings only on the con-  
verter box output channel. This is because the  
converter determines what channel you view  
through your DVD+VCR.  
Programming can be checked whenever the  
DVD+VCR is turned on.  
1. Press SETUP MENU and the MAIN menu  
appears.  
2. Use v / V to choose the PROGRAM menu and  
press ENTER (OK).  
SPEED: AUTO mode determines how much tape  
is left and switches the speed from SP to SLP if it  
is necessary to complete recording the program. If  
this occurs there could be some picture and  
sound distortion at the point where the speed  
changes.  
3. Use b / B to select a program you want to check  
or erase. To erase the program, press CLEAR  
(0000).  
REPEAT: To record up to 8 programs on a certain  
day of every week select WEEKLY. To record up  
to 8 programs at the same time Monday through  
Friday select DAILY. Otherwise select ONCE.  
4. Press SETUP MENU to return to the TV screen.  
7. Press SETUP MENU and the program is memo-  
rized by the DVD+VCR.  
Program Priority  
8. Additional programs may be entered by repeating

If the recording start and end times of preset pro-  
grams overlap on the same day (see the example),  
the second program is not recorded until the first is  
finished.  
9. Ensure you insert a tape with the record safety  
tab intact before the first programmed time.  
10. Press x (STOP) to end timer recording.  
Notes:  
If you make a mistake or want to change a set-  
ting, use v to select the option and correct it  
using b / B.  
If the program preset time is past, the “PAST  
TIME PROGRAMMED” message appears on the  
TV screen. Return to the incorrect program and  
program it with the correct time.  
In this example, the first part of program numbers 2  
and 3 are not recorded.  
If you enter a past date, the timer recording will  
be performed on that date of the next year.  
If the power fails or the DVD+VCR is unplugged  
the clock and timer settings are kept in memory  
for only 3 seconds. Otherwise you must reset the  
clock and timer.
