Initial Set-up and tuning

Switch the TV on. You can also start "AUTO SEARCH" from the "PR PRESET" menu by pressing buttons [VCR], [SETUP], [ ], [OK] and [OK] again. To tune in new stations (manual tuning) and to enter station names see page 24-25.

Setting up the player

CHECK IT!

If you don't see the menu picture below after you press the menu button it may be because you don't use a RCA cable and you need to tune the television to the player (see 'Connecting your player through RF lead' on page 10). Normally a new player outputs a signal via the RF lead on transmission channel 36. Search for the menu picture with the channel tuning function of your TV set (see its user manual). Some televisions allow you to key in the transmission channel number in their tuning set-up menu.

In case there will be interference problems with other transmission channels when the player outputs a signal on transmission channel 36, the AUTO SEARCH process usually recommends an alternative, as in step 3.

There is a another way of setting RF output channel, if needed please see 'Connections and Assembling on page 31'. It does not apply to models which do not generate the RF output signal.

Press on the remote control and RF36 will be displayed on the front of your player. Select a free channel on your TV and manual tune the channel until the blue screen as shown in step 2 appears. Refer to the TV manual for more details.

You should see this picture the first time you switch on the TV and player.

Select the wanted language with PR+ or PR- button. Press OK to confirm.

Then choose your country.

OK for "AUTO SEARCH!".

"AUTO SEARCH" tunes in all the stations you can receive in your country and sorts them in an order common for your country.

Connections and Assembling

If you are using a RCA cable, select the AV input on the TV to see the picture from the player. If you are not using a RCA cable, select the button number on the TV reserved for the VCR-DVD player.

Connecting TV via aerial cable (if you are not using a RCA cable)

If you are not using a RCA cable, your player can transmit pictures and sound to the TV via the coax aerial cable. Just tune the TV to the player's transmitting channel (factory set to UHF channel 36). Tune the TV carefully to ensure the best pictures and sound.

Once you have carried out the steps in "Connecting up the player" , switch on your TV.

Press the [OK] button of the player's remote control longer than 5 seconds to call the player's test picture. Tune the TV to the test picture using the channel pre-set functions of your TV as described in its manual. When you have found the test picture, store it under the button number on your TV for player input. Press the [OK] button of the player's remote control again longer than 5 seconds to release the test picture.

VCR Operation

If the quality of the test picture transmitted to the TV is poor due to interference caused by a station transmitting on channel 36, you can tune

the player to a different transmitting channel. Find a free channel between 21 and 69 on your TV.

Call the player's "SETUP" choose "VCR SETUP" then "RF OUTPUT SET".

Type in the free channel. Store and exit.

If the quality of the test picture transmitted to the TV is poor, fine-tuning on the TV may help (refer to the TV manual).
