16 Initial Setup Initial Setup screens will appear the very first time you turn on the Recorder. These on-screen messages and menus will help you set up Recorder features quickly, including TV channels and language options. During Initial Setup, "TURN ON TV" will appear on the Recorder's display panel. This appears in addition to the Initial Setup information that shows on your TV screen. "TURN ON TV" indicates you should turn on your television and set it to the correct Video In channel. Even though your TV may be on, you must set it to the correct Video In channel to see the Initial Setup messages. See pages 9-14 to determine the correct Video In channel for your connection. Or, check your TV owner's manual for details. Follow the steps below to set up the Recorder as directed on the TV screen. You can not turn off the Recorder until you finish the Initial Setup. The only way to quit the Initial Setup is to disconnect the power cord. If you quit, the Initial Setup screens will appear again the next time you turn on the Recorder. The screens will not go away until you finish the Initial Setup. Also, you cannot open the Disc tray while "TURN ON TV" appears. If the setup screens do not appear, your Recorder has been set up previously. You can always change setup items later. For details on how to change these items later, see the pages listed at each step below for each feature. 1 Press ON/OFFy to turn on the Recorder. 2 The Menu Language screen will appear first.
