Your Philips video recorder can be used, not only for recording and playing back VHS cassettes, but it also has a whole range of special functions which will make day-to-day use of your new video recorder easier for you.

Plug in and off you go - getting started with your new video recorder just couldnt be simpler. Once you have connected the cables, you will immediately see text on the screen which will assist you at all stages of operation.

The function Smart Picture gives you the option of activating pre-defined picture settings quickly and easily at the touch of a button.

The simple programming system for video recorders revolutionized the video world when it was introduced. Instead of having to enter many different details (date, starting time, finish time, programme), which was often tiresome and liable to errors,all you have to do is enter a number, up to nine digits long, which can be found in any TV programme listing. Once you have done that, all the relevant details for the recording are stored.

VIDEO Plus+ and PlusCode are registered trademarks of Gemstar Development Corporation. The VIDEO Plus+ system is manufactured under licence from Gemstar Development Corporation.

Using the enclosed multi-code remote control you can, if you wish, control the main functions of your TV set - even if your TV is not made by Philips.

Recordings can be controlled, not only by the video recorder itself but also by a connected satellite receiver. In this way the programme from various TV stations can be recorded one after another without the need to set the corresponding channels on the satellite receiver manually. Requirement: Your satellite receiver must support this function.

The Video Home System (VHS) has become the worldwide standard for recording and playback of amateur video cassettes.The popular standard has since been refined.Super-VHS (S-VHS) offers greater sharpness and less noise, Digital-VHS (D-VHS) now only works with digital picture and sound signals.Your video recorder can only record and play standard VHS cassettes.

OPTIMIZING THE MODULATOR ENGLISH

OOppttiimmiizziinngg tthhee mmoodduullaattoorr

If the TV set and the video recorder are only connected with an aerial cable - rather than with an additional scart cable - it may happen that in certain reception locations the modulator frequency of the video recorder is occupied by a TV channel. As soon as the video recorder is switched on, the reception quality of the TV picture deteriorates.The following steps will show you how to overcome this problem.

SSuupppprreessssiinngg iinntteerrffeerreennccee

TTIIPP

WWhhaatt iiss aa mmoodduullaattoorr?? The purpose of this electronic assembly inside your

video recorder is to pass on the picture and sound information read in from the video tape via an aerial cable like a TV signal to the TV set. The modulator frequency determines the frequency range in which these signals are transmitted.

1 Switch the video recorder on and make sure

there is no cassette in the video recorder

3 The display shows MON. The video

recorder will now transmit a test image on this frequency

2 Press simultaneously the

EEJJEECCTT

button JJon the front of the video recorder and the button

until the display shows the modulator frequency (e.g.M583 or CH35 ).

You can also make the video recorder search automatically for an appropriate frequency. To do so, simply hold down the button PP. As soon as a free frequency has been found,it will be shown in the display.

5 Tune the programme number of your TV set

allocated for video use to the new modulator frequency until you see the test image sharply and in colour

If picture and sound interference cannot be removed by optimising the modulator, the integral modulator can be switched off.Warning: this is only possible if you have connected the video recorder to the TV set with a scart cable. It is not possible to operate with the modulator switched off without a scart cable.
