SET-UP AND SAFETY
___________________________________________________
In order to ensure that this high-quality, easy-to-use combined TV/video unit
continues to provide you with satisfaction and entertainment, please observe the
following instructions when setting it up:
The combined TV/video unit is designed for the reception, recording and
playback of video and audio signals.
Any other use is expressly prohibited.
The ideal viewing distance is 5 times the screen diagonal.
External light falling on the screen impairs picture quality.
Ensure sufficient clearance between the TV and the wall cabinet.
When the combined TV/video unit is subject to extreme variations in
temperature, for example during transportation from a cold area to a warm
one, connect it to the mains supply and let it stand for at least two hours without
an inserted cassette.
The combined TV/video unit is designed for use in dry places. If, however, you
use it in the open, it is essential to ensure that it is protected from moisture (rain,
lawn sprinklers). Do not expose the combined TV/video unit to any moisture.
Do not place any containers filled with liquids (vases or similar) on the
combined TV/video unit. The container could fall over and the liquid may
present an electrical safety risk.
Do not insert any foreign bodies in the cassette compartment of the combined
TV/video unit, since this may damage its precision mechanics.

SET-UP AND SAFETY
_________________________________________________________________
Place the combined TV/video unit on an even and solid surface. Do not place
any objects (newspapers, for example) on the combined TV/video unit or any
cloth or similar articles underneath the combined TV/video unit.
Do not place the combined TV/video unit close to heating units or in direct
sunlight. This will impair cooling.
Heat build-up can be dangerous and diminishes the service life of the combined
TV/video unit. For reasons of safety, have any accumulations in the combined
TV/video unit removed by a trained person from time to time.
Keep the combined TV/video unit away from magnetic fields (loudspeaker
boxes, for example).
Do not open the combined TV/video unit under any circumstances. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage arising from improper handling.
Ensure that the mains cable is not damaged.
Thunderstorms present a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the combined
TV/video unit is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the
mains and/or the aerial cable. Always disconnect the mains and aerial plugs
before a storm.
Clean the screen with a soft, damp cloth. Only use clear water.

SET-UP AND SAFETY
_________________________________________________________________
Warning
In case this appliance is supplied with a Safety Standard Approved mains lead
fitted with a non-rewireable 13 Amp mains plug which, if unsuitable for your
socket, should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted by a qualified
electrician. The fuse and fuse holder must be removed from the plug as
accidental insertion of the redundant plug into a 13 Amp socket is likely to
cause an electrical hazard.
Note:
The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it
be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.
If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct type
and rating (5 Amp ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362) must be used and the fuse
cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged the lead and plug
must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse covers
should be obtained from your dealer.
If a non-rewireable plug or a rewireable 13 Amp (BS 1363) plug is used, it must
be fitted with a 5 Amp ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362 fuse. If any other type of
plug is used it must be protected by a 5 Amp fuse either in the plug or at the
distribution board.
Important:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
BLUE – NEUTRAL
BROWN – LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond
with the coloured marking identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter "N" or
coloured black.
Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with a letter "L" or
coloured red.
In no circumstance must any of the wires be connected to the terminal marked with a
letter "E", earth symbol , coloured green or green and yellow.
Replacement mains lead can be obtained from your dealer.

RECORDING
____________________________________________________________________
Three options for recording:
With your combined TV/video unit, you have three different options for recording television programmes:
1 Immediate recording, in which you select the desired channel on the com-
bined TV/video unit and start recording immediately.
2 Delayed recording – with use of the VIDEO Plus + numbers.
3 Delayed recording – by entering the data for the desired television channel –
if you do not know the VIDEO Plus + numbers.
For recording types 2 and 3, you can input the recording data for six
programmes within a time period of one year,
or record programmes daily or weekly at the same time.
The programmes of your choice are recorded via the video programme
system (PDC) – controlled by the television stations.
Note:
The combined TV/video unit has two reception units. Thus you can switch to
a different channel while recording without affecting the previously selected
television channel.
Note:
If you have programmed a TIMER recording and you want to play back a
cassette in which the erase protection has been removed, you must cancel
the TIMER recording.
24
RECORDING
_______________________________________________________________________________
The video programme system (PDC)
When making a delayed recording, control by this system ensures the totally
reliable recording of the programme.
Information about the video programme system
Many television stations transmit a supplementary signal (PDC signal) which
indicates the start and duration of each television programme. It is therefore
important when programming the combined TV/video unit that the switch-on
and switch-off times are entered precisely, to the nearest minute.
If television programmes are changed or re-scheduled, then special PDC times
which must be entered instead of the scheduled times are detailed in the
programme indexes.
The combined TV/video unit switches on at the entered time and – controlled by
the PDC signal – switches off at the end of the programme. To ensure that the
programme is recorded in full, make sure that the recording duration of the
cassette used is adequate.
Television programmes without PDC signals
In the case of television stations which do not transmit a PDC signal, recording is
only started via the switch-on time and ended via the switch-off time.
This is regardless of whether the PDC signal is confirmed or deleted during
programming of the combined TV/video unit.
Programming several television programmes on one
day
If you want to pre-program several programmes from different television
stations, you must decide which programme should be recorded completely, if
you are concerned about a time lag.

after the combined TV/video unit has been disconnected from the mains.
Automatic update of time and date
If a channel with teletext is set for channel position 1 of the combined TV/video
unit, the combined TV/video unit uses this to actualise its ”internal” clock.
The update process is carried out regularly every Sunday between 3 and 6
o’clock; thus the combined TV/video unit also responds to the daylight saving
time switch-over.
To update the time and date, switch off the combined TV/video unit with »88«
(standby mode).
