VCR SETUP

■To avoid picture noise (interference), leave an adequate distance between the VCR and TV.

■Use the ISM feature in the Option menu to avoid having a fixed image remain on the screen for a long period of time (Only Plasma TV model). If the 4:3 picture format is used; the fixed images on the sides of the screen may remain visible on the screen. This phenomenon is common to all manufactures and in consequence the manufactures warranty does not cover the product bearing this phenomenon.
