EasyLink features are based on the “one touch operation” approach. This means that a sequence of actions are executed at the same time in both the television and the video cassette recorder, provided both are fitted with the EasyLink function and connected with the eurocable supplied with your video recorder.

Preparation

&Place the receiver box wherever you want, but make sure that air can circulate freely through

the ventilation slots. Do not install the receiver box in a confined space such as a book case or a similar unit.

min. 1m

To prevent any unsafe situations, no naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on or in the vicinity. Avoid heat, direct sunlight and exposure to rain or water. The equipment shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on it.

éConnect the supplied aerial cable 1 and the VGA cable with trailing audio cinch connectors 2 as shown in the inside frontcover of this handbook. Make sure all screws of the cable 2 are tightened well.

TV receiver box with speakerless monitor:

In case you connect your TV receiver box with a speakerless monitor, and without having connected an audio receiver, all references made in this instruction book to sound reproduction, volume control, and audio connections, are not applicable (except for a headphone connection).

The keys on the remote control referring to sound have no function either.

“To connect your computer, see the separate supplied instruction manual with your monitor. To connect other peripherals, see p. 19.

If you dispose of a Cinema Link combination (Cinema Link Audio receiver and/or Cinema Link video recorder and/or DVD player), see the separate supplied instruction manual.

In order to obtain the best result, please use only the supplied antenna cables between the receiver box and videorecorder, and between videorecorder and antenna connector.

‘Insert the mains cord supplied 3 into the mains at the back of the monitor and the mains cord 4 at the back of the receiver. Put both in the wall sockets.

(Remote control: Insert the 2 batteries supplied (Type R6-1,5V).

The batteries supplied do not contain the heavy metals mercury and cadmium. Please check on how to dispose of exhausted batteries according to local regulations.

§Switch the TV on : Press the power switch B at the right side of the monitor and the one on the front of your receiver box. An indicator on the front of the TV lights up and the screen comes on. If the TV is in standby mode, press the -P+ keys or the red B key on the remote control.
