Your VCR comes with Mitsubishi’s exclusive

on-screen operating

system. This system has been developed to simplify the operation of your VCR
with clear, easy-to-understand language and design.

Before your VCR can receive television channels or you can program your VCR to
record, you need to memorize all of the channels you can receive into your VCR
and set the clock. Fortunately, your VCR makes this an easy process with our
menu system.

When using the on-screen menus, use the ADJUST buttons to move the highlight
bar up or down and to change the setting of selected features. Press the ENTER
button to enter a selection or adjustment. Press the CANCEL button to cancel or
clear a setting.

Memorizing Channels Automatically

Using this process, your VCR will automatically memorize all of the television
stations available to you. You can later get rid of unwanted or unused stations.

If your local cable company scrambles some or all stations, and/or requires you
to use a cable box, then your ability to program channels would normally be
limited. The cable box receives all of your channels, then sends only one to
your TV and your VCR, usually on channel 3 or 4.

If your cable box or cable system seems incompatible with your new VCR, call
your cable company. They may be able to provide solutions to your problems.

An on-screen message will show you that the VCR is memorizing the stations
you can receive. You can cancel the memorization at any time by pressing
CANCEL. After the VCR has memorized all the channels, the screen will
return to the VCR’s picture.

IMPORTANT

Automatic channel memorizing may include vacant channels if there are stray
signals or noise on those channels. If this occurs, you can manually delete the
channels using the procedure in the section Adding an Deleting Channels.
