There are TV sets on the market today called "cable-ready." These are capable of receiving most of the channels available with Time Warner Cable without a converter box. However, if you subscribe to Cinemax, the Disney Channel, Showtime, CablePlus or any of our multi-channel services, a converter is necessary to descramble the picture. The same is true in order to take advantage of pay-per-view service. Using your VCR with your cable television service is easy; just follow the setup instructions below:

• Tune your cable television converter to the channel you wish to record.
• Tune your VCR to channel 3.
• The VCR will now record desired channel. If you wish to use the timer recorder, set timer for
• desired times to be recorded on channel 3 on the VCR. Then leave the converter turned on, tuned to the channel you wish to record.
  

NOTE:

• On the back of your VCR is a channel 3/4 switch. This switch should be set to channel 3.
• The above instructions are the recommended setup procedures for Time Warner Cable customers with converters. These instructions may vary from those listed in your VCR manual.
