When you connect the optical digital cable (not supplied), remove the dust protection cap from the rear panel. When not using the optical digital cable, attach the dust protection cap to protect against dust.

NOTES:

• The OPTICAL, COAXIAL jacks are useful only for DVD section. VHS signal is output only from the SCART-sockets, AUDIO L/R jacks and RF OUT jack.

• When you make the connections above, do not set DOLBY DIGITAL to DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS to ON on the AV Amplifier. If you do, a loud noise will suddenly come out from the speakers, affecting your ears or causing the speakers to be damaged.

• DTS audio will be output only from the COAXIAL output. To hear DTS audio, DTS-Decoder is necessary. When playing DTS-encoded CDs, only noise will be heard from the speakers or analogue stereo outputs.

• Some DTS decoders which do not support DVD-DTS interface may not work properly with the unit.

Setting the TV to the AV-Channel

We recommend that television and DVD/VCR are being connected with a scart cable. In this case, the setting of AV-channel is not necessary. Picture and sound of video cassette will be transmitted to television through the scart cable automatically. Please read the next page.

In case of no scart cable connection, you must set the television to the AVchannel. Pay attention to the following notice: A built-in TV-broadcast in DVD/VCR can do the video playback through the supplied antenna cable. This broadcast is sent on UHF, channel 36. To receive this broadcast, you must tune your television to channel 36 in UHF-band.(see step 2)

In case a broadcast has already sent to channel 36 in your area or you connect a additional equipment (e.g. Satellite receiver) with a coaxial cable (without a scart cable), you must tune the sending channel in DVD/VCR (see step 3). In your television store the both equipment (the DVD/VCR and the satellite receiver) to 2 different program positions.

Example: Your satellite receiver is sent to channel 36. You tune the DVD/VCR to channel 40 (see step 3). (If your DVD/VCR is also sent to channel 36, the interference will occur.) In your television store the channel 36 to e.g. program position 3 and store the channel 40 to e.g. program position 4. Note that the program position 4 must be suitable for video-playback especially. Please see the owner's manual for your television. If the playback picture is often distored, you must select the other program position for DVD/ VCR.

Setting the Time and Date

If the time and date is not be displayed for some reasons after the ATS function has been completed, a manual clock adjustment will be required.

Note:

• In case of a power failure the clock will continue to operate for another 30 minutes with quartz-controlled precision. To indicate that the power failure has lasted for an excessive period of time “0:00” will blink on the display. In this case readjust time and date. If the clock does not have been adjusted yet, the step 1 will appear automatically.

• The clock will only be automatically set when the VCR is connected to the Telecom CATV network. All the provided CATV stations should be stored in the VCR. This is the case when the ATS function has been completed. The antenna system must be free of any defects, e.g. there should be no picture noise. The clock will be re-adjusted every 30 minutes except the period between 23:00 and 1:00 o’clock. In case the total difference between the indicated time and the current time is more than 5 minutes, the clock will not be corrected. The switching from winter time to summer time will be considered.

The clock will not be adjust automatically when:

• timer activated.

• antenna not connected.

• only an outdoor antenna or a satellite

receiver connected.

Preparation:

• Turn ON the TV and set to the video input mode.

• Make sure TV/VCR/DVD switch has been slided to VCR/DVD. Then

press VCR to select the VCR mode. (The VCR indicator will light)

Example: Setting the clock to 11:30, 23rd October 2002.

Press SET UP MENU. Press
