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

1 m

min.

& 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.

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.

é Connect 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).

“ 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.
