CAUTION:

• Operate only from the power source specified (AC 220 – 240 V, 50 Hz) on the unit.

• Avoid damaging the AC plug and power cord.

Avoid improper installation and never put the unit where good ventilation is not possible. When installing this TV, distance recommendations must be maintained between the set and the wall, as well as inside a tightly enclosed area or piece of furniture. Adhere to the minimum distance guidelines shown for safe operation.

• The main power button on the TV does not fully isolate the TV from the mains supply. If you are not going to use this TV for a long period of time, be sure to disconnect the mains plug from the mains outlet.

Failure to heed the following precautions may result in damage to the TV or remote control.

DO NOT block the TV’s ventilation openings or holes.

Warning

DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fitted is not suitable

for the power points in your home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or adaptor or consult your dealer.

If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off, remove the fuse and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.

If a new mains plug has to be fitted, then follow the instruction given below:

Important

Do not make any connection to the larger terminal which is marked with the letter E or

by the safety earth symbol or coloured green or green-and-yellow.

The wires in the mains lead on this product are coloured in accordance with the following code: Blue: Neutral Brown: Live

As these colours may not correspond with the coloured marking identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as follows:

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.

When replacing the fuse, use only a correctly rated approved type and always re-fit the fuse cover.

 If in doubt — consult a competent

electrician.

How to replace the fuse

UNITED KINGDOM:

BBC1, BBC2, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 are automatically set to the programme numbers PR1 to PR5. If the TV doesn't receive one of these TV channels, that programme number (PR) will not be set. Programme number PR6 is not normally set.

• When the COUNTRY setting is

IRELAND:

If your TV can detect the TV channel name from the TV channel broadcast signal, the TV channel name is assigned to the programme number (PR) to which the TV channel has been set. However, which TV channels are set to which programme numbers (PR) will depend on the area in which you live.

• If a TV channel you want to view is not set to a programme number (PR), you can set it using the MANUAL function. For details, see “EDIT/MANUAL” on page 42.

• The AUTO PROGRAM function does not set the programme number PR 0 (AV) for your video cassette recorder. You will need to set this using the MANUAL function.

• In some areas you may get TV reception from more than one transmitter, for example different ITV regions. In this case each TV channel could be set twice. If this happens, the first set of channels will have the stronger signal. If you want to delete the second set of channels, you will have to do it manually (see page 45).

To use T-V LINK functions:

A “T-V LINK compatible VCR” means a JVC video cassette recorder with the T-V LINK logo, or with one of the following logos. However, these VCRs may support some or all of the features described earlier. For details, see your VCR instruction manual.

“Q-LINK” (a trademark of Panasonic Corporation) “Data Logic” (a trademark of Metz Corporation) “Easy Link” (a trademark of Phillips Corporation) “Megalogic” (a trademark of Grundig Corporation) “SMARTLINK” (a trademark of Sony Corporation).

Setting up your TV

 Pre-set download

The VCR will automatically download the registered data on the TV channels from the TV. This means you do not need to set up the program channels on your VCR manually. The preset download function automatically begins when the initial setting is complete or whenever you carry out the AUTO PROGRAM or EDIT/MANUAL functions.

You can also carry out this function using your VCR controls.

When “FEATURE NOT AVAILABLE” is displayed:

If “FEATURE NOT AVAILABLE” is displayed, the download was not performed correctly. Before trying to download again, check that:

• the VCR power is turned on

• the VCR is T-V LINK compatible

• the VCR is connected to the EXT-2 terminal

• the SCART cable is fully wired.

 Direct Rec

“What You See Is What You Record”

You can easily record to VCR the images that you are watching on the TV.

For details, read the manual for your VCR. Use your VCR controls. “VCR IS RECORDING” is displayed.

In the following situations, the VCR will stop recording if the TV is turned off, if the TV channel or input is changed, or if the menu is displayed on the TV:

• when recording images from an external device connected to the TV (for example a camcorder)

• when recording a TV channel after it has been unscrambled on a decoder

• when recording a TV channel by using the TV’s output because the VCR’s own tuner cannot properly receive that channel.

When the VCR is not ready (for example when there is no tape inserted), “NO RECORDING” is displayed.

You cannot carry out Direct Rec using your TV’s control. Generally, the VCR cannot record a TV channel that it cannot receive properly on its own tuner, even if you can view that TV channel on the TV. However, some VCRs can record a TV channel by using the TV’s output if that channel can be viewed on the TV. For details, see your VCR instruction manual.

 TV auto power on/VCR image view

When the VCR starts playing, the TV automatically turns on and the images from the EXT-2 terminal appear on the screen.

When the VCR menu is operated, the TV automatically turns on and the images from the EXT-2 terminal appear on the screen.

• This function does not happen if your TV’s main power is turned off. Set your TV’s main power to on (standby mode).
