The video recorder should not be turned on immediately after transportation from a cold to a hot area or vice versa, or in conditions of extreme humidity.
Wait at least three hours after transporting the device. The video recorder needs this time in order to become acclimatised to its new environment (temperature, air humidity, etc.).
Your Philips team hopes that you will enjoy using your new video recorder.
This video recorder is used for the recording and playback of VHS video cassettes.
Cassettes with the VHS-C label (VHS cassettes for camcorders) may only be used with a suitable adapter.

Special functions of your new video recorder
ENGLISH
Your PHILIPS video recorder is not just for recording and playing back VHS cassettes. It also has a whole range of special functions which will make the day-to-day use of your new video recorder much easier.
Philips has developed a system which produces the best possible playback quality. For old and often-used video cassettes, this system reduces interference. For new or high quality cassettes, it emphasises the details.
When you connect your video recorder to your television and plug it into the wall socket, you will be welcomed with a screen menu. All you have to do is follow the instructions in the 'intelligent help line' for the next step. Enjoy the automatic TV channel search/save function and the automatic time setting.
You can operate the main functions on your television using your video recorder remote control, even if your television is not a Philips.
This function automatically transfers all the television channel settings onto your video recorder.
Recordings made on your video recorder can be controlled by an external satellite receiver.
Your video recorder can ascertain which channel is currently playing on your television and record from it at the touch of a button.
The precision tape drive from Philips provides short rewind times and automatic tape length recognition.

BConnecting the video recorder
Preparing the remote control for operation
ENGLISH
The remote control and its batteries are packed separately in the original video recorder packaging. You must install the batteries in the remote control before use - described in the following section.
1Take the remote control and the enclosed batteries (2 batteries).
2Open the remote control's battery compartment and place the batteries in it as shown in the picture and close the battery compartment.
The remote control is now ready to use. Its range is approximately 5 meters.
Connecting your video recorder to the TV set
The necessary cable connections must be made before you can record or playback TV programmes using your video recorder.
We recommend that you use a scart cable to connect your TV set and video recorder.
What is a scart cable?
The scart or Euro AV cable serves as the universal connector for picture, sound and control signals. With this type of connection, there is practically no loss of quality during the picture or sound transfer.
When you install your video recorder for the first time, select one of the following options:
'Connecting with a scart cable'
If your TV set has a scart socket and you are using a scart cable.
'Connecting without a scart cable'
If you do not wish to use a scart cable.

Connecting with a scart cable
Have the following cables ready:
an aerial cable (1, supplied), a mains cable (2, supplied), a scart cable (3).
1Remove the aerial cable plug from your TV set. Insert it into the socket 2 at the back of the video recorder.
2Insert one end of the supplied aerial cable into the socket TV at the back of the video recorder and the other end into the aerial input socket at the back of the TV set.

Plug one end of a scart cable into the scart socket |
EXT.1 AV. 1 at |
|
|
the back of the video recorder and the other |
end into the suitable |
|
|
scart socket on your TV set reserved for |
the |
video recorder |
operation (see your TV's operating instructions).
My TV set has several scart sockets. Which one should I use?
Select that scart socket which is suited for the video output as well as for the video input.
My TV offers me a selection menu for the scart socket.
Select 'TV' as a connection source of this scart socket.
4Switch on the TV set.
5 Insert one end of the supplied mains cable into the mains socket 4 at the back of the video recorder and the other end into the wall socket.
6If the connection was properly made and your TV was automatically switched to the programme number for the scart socket, e.g. 'EXT', '0', 'AV', you will see the following picture:

aMy screen is empty
b Many TV sets are switched to the programme number for the scart socket by way of a control signal sent through the scart cable.
b If the TV set does not automatically switch to the scart socket programme number, manually change to the corresponding programme number on your TV set (see your TV's operating instructions).
Then, read the paragraph 'Initial installation' in the chapter 'Installing your video recorder'.
Connecting without a scart cable
Have the following cables ready:
an aerial cable (1, supplied), a mains cable (2, supplied).
1Switch off your TV set.
2Remove the aerial cable plug from the aerial input socket of the TV set. Insert it into the socket 2 at the back of the video recorder.
3Insert one end of the supplied aerial cable into the socket TV at the back of the video recorder and the other end into the aerial input socket at the back of the TV set.
4 Insert one end of the supplied mains cable into the mains socket 4 at the back of the video recorder and the other end into the wall socket.
5Switch on your TV set and select the programme number used for video playback on your TV set (see your TV's operating instructions).
Which programme number is used for video recorder operation?
To ensure the stability of the television picture during cassette playback (prevention of waves or streaks), special programme numbers have been set aside on the TV for the use of video recorders. This is usually the highest possible programme number, e.g. '12', '16', '99' or even programme number '0'. For more information, please see your TV's operating instructions.

You can find more details in chapter 'Initial Installation'.
Connecting additional devices
You can connect additional devices such as decoders, satellite receivers, camcorders, etc. to the socket EXT.2 AV. 2 .
