Precautions

WORTH

knowing

Please keep the video's guarantee sheet (pages 29 and 30) and receipt for your video in a safe place.

◆ Read this booklet carefully.

◆ Make sure the rating of your household electricity supply matches that

shown on the back of the video recorder.

◆ Read this chapter and the "Setting up your video" chapter to help you set

up and adjust your video recorder.

◆ Do not put the video recorder in a hot or humid place (to avoid the risk of

fire and electric shock).

◆ Do not open the video recorder. Get a qualified technician to carry out any

repairs.

◆ Do not connect the video recorder to the power supply if you have just

moved it from a cold environment to a warm room. This can lead to condensation inside the video which can seriously damage the video and cassettes. Wait around two hours to allow it to reach room temperature.

◆ Make sure the recorder should be placed at least 10cm apart from the

other home appliances or the obstacles to get sufficient ventillation.

◆ This apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no

objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on this apparatus.

◆ Put the video on a steady, flat surface.

◆ Make sure there is good ventilation all around the video.

◆ Only clean the video with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use harsh or

alcohol-based cleaning agents.

For your own safety!

◆ There are no components in this video recorder you can

service or repair yourself.

◆ Do not open the case of the video recorder. Only allow a

qualified engineer to repair or service your video.

◆

This video recorder is designed to work continuously. Switching it off (onto stand-by) does not disconnect it from the mains. To disconnect it from the mains, you have to unplug it.

The power cable must be fitted with a fused plug approved by ASTA or BSI to BS 1362 and provided with a 5A fuse.

The fuse cover must always be securely replaced. If the video recorder is not working, the fuse may need replacing (see also “Electrical connection” on page 26).

If PDC does not appear on the screen, it is not available on your video. PDC= Programme Delivery Control.

• PDC sets your video to adjust the start times of your timed recording. This happens even if a programme starts earlier or later than advertised.

PDC works when the broadcaster sends a signal, but the signal is not always sent.

If you are not sure the signal will be sent, it is best to switch PDC off.

•

If there is no programme number displayed under ‘PR’ in the change menu, the video doesn’t yet know the number for the programme you want. Type it in and this will be stored for later recordings.

•

If you wish to record from a satellite receiver, select under ‘PR’ the satellite programme or AV (depending whether the video is connected with the antenna cable or the scart-cable). Leave the satellite tuner switched on and set the programme you want to record.

• The video will warn you if you have set the timer to start recording a second programme before the first

recording has finished.

• To stop the recording after it has already started, press and hold the STOPbutton for about five seconds

until the video stops recording.

Electrical connection

◆ For your own safety read the following instructions carefully before you try to plug this video into the mains.

◆

Check that the voltage on the rating plate matches the voltage in your home. The rating plate

is on the back panel of the video. If the mains plug fitted to this appliance is not suitable for your mains sockets, remove the plug

and replace it following instructions below. (See over the page for how to get rid of the original plug).

The wires of the mains lead fitted to this appliance are coloured as follows.

Blue = Neutral (black) Brown = Live (red)

The colours of wires in the mains lead fitted to this video may not correspond with the coloured markings of the terminals in the plug.

◆ The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the

letter ‘N’ or coloured black.

◆ The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the

letter ‘L’ or coloured red.

◆ Do not connect any wire to the earth terminal of a three-pin plug.

If the terminals in the plug are not marked or you are in any doubt about the correct connections, consult a qualified electrician.

GENERAL UK(T30) 01.3.17 11:41 AM ˘ ` 26

Moulded plugs

◆ If it is necessary to remove a moulded plug from the mains cable, you should cut it off and

replace it with a suitable replacement.

◆ You cannot use the moulded plug for any other appliance, so remove the fuse and throw it

away immediately and safely to prevent anyone, especially children, from plugging it into a wall socket which would be very dangerous.

◆ If the mains lead ever needs replacing, a qualified electrician should replace it with a flexible

cord from the manufacturer.

◆ After you have replaced a fuse in the plug, you must put the fuse cover back on. If you have

lost the fuse cover, you must get a replacement cover. The replacement fuse cover should be the same colour as the coloured insert in the base of the plug or the colour that is embossed in words in the base of the plug, or anywhere else on the plug. Always mention this colour when you order a replacement fuse cover.

◆ Only 5-amp replacement fuses which are ASTA approved to BS 1362 should be fitted.

Caution:

When you are using this video on AC 230V ~ mains supply, please remember that when the video is on stand-by, it is not disconnected from the mains supply. However, it is perfectly safe to leave the video connected to the mains supply.

This symbol means that this unit is double insulated, an earth connection is not necessary.

Caution : To prevent electric shock, do not remove any covers.

Caution: There are no parts inside which you can repair yourself. Always get a

qualified service engineer to carry out any repairs.

Problem-solving guide

The video has the time or - -.- - on the display

If while you are setting up the video, the timer or - -.- - is in the display, the video is switched off or has already gone through the autoset procedure (OK has already been pressed). In this case, please turn to page 7 and carry out step 2 until you see the manual tuning screen.

The arrow will not go to preset in the menu

If the arrow will not go to preset, come out of the menu completely by following the on-screen instructions and press AV on the video remote control until P-_ _ is displayed. P-_ _ will be displayed on the front of the video where the time normally is displayed.

A blue screen is displayed when you switch the video on

If a blue screen appears when you switch the video on, the AV button has been pressed. Press AV on the remote control until P-_ _ appears on the display of the video, or until a TV picture is displayed.

The video has lost programmed channels

If the video has lost the programmed channels, check whether the video has been switched off. If the video is left with no power for up to eight hours, you can press the MENU button when the autoset screen appears to bring back the original settings. See page 8 for how to set time and date.

The timer light stays on the display, even though the recording has finished

If the timer light stays on even though the recording has finished, this is because PDC takes into account a delay in recording for up to 24 hours.

The TV/VCR button on the video remote control will not work

This button will only work if the TV has the appropriate internal switch.

The television will not change channel when the video is turned on

If the television will not change channel while the video is on, check whether a scart lead has been connected. (See page 4 option 2)

If a scart lead has been connected, you need to press the TV/VCR button on the video remote control. When the small VCR symbol appears on the display, you can only change channel by using the video remote control.

If the TV/VCR button on the video remote control does not work, read the instruction book for the TV to find out about an audio video button.

The video has a number other than 52 when RF appears

A number other than 52 might be displayed on the video when RF is flashing in the display. This means that the number has been adjusted in the past.

The TV needs to be tuned in to get the blue auto set or auto search screen.
