This video recorder is designed to receive, record and play back video and audio signals.
Any other use is expressly prohibited.
If the video recorder is subject to sudden changes in temperature, for example if it is brought in from the cold to a warm room, connect it to the mains supply and let it stand for at least two hours before you insert a video cassette.
|
The video recorder is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do |
|
use it in the open, please ensure that it is protected from moi- |
Balkan |
sture, such as rain or water splashes. Do not expose the video |
|
recorder or cassettes to moisture. |
|
Place the video recorder on a hard, level surface. Do not place |
|
any objects (newspapers, for example) on top of the video |
|
recorder or any cloth or similar items underneath it. |
|
Do not place the video recorder near heating units or in direct |
|
sunlight, as this will impair cooling. Keep the video recorder |
|
away from devices which generate magnetic fields, such as |
|
loudspeakers. |
|
Do not insert any foreign objects into the video tape compart- |
P |
ment, as this may damage its precision mechanics. |
|
Do not place any vessels such as vases on the video recorder |
|
as they may spill liquid and present an electrical safety risk. |
|
Thunderstorms present a danger to all electrical devices. Even |
|
when the video recorder is switched off it can be damaged by |
|
a lightning strike to the mains or antenna cable. Always |
|
disconnect the mains and antenna plugs during a storm. |
P |

Automatic channel tuning (using ATS euro plus)
The video recorder has its own receiver unit. It can receive and record from television stations independently of the television. This means you must tune the television stations on the video recorder.
During this setting the clock is automatically updated. However, this is only possible if channel position 1 on the video recorder is occupied by a station with teletext.
There are 99 channel positions available which can be assigned as required to television stations received via the antenna, cable connection or satellite receiver.
Note on recording television programs with the Megalogic function:
If the video recorder is connected to a television set with Megalogic functions, this setting transfers the programs stored in the television to the video recorder.
Preparation
Switch on the television.
Select the channel position »AV« on the television for the video recorder.
