Connection to Power
Before Switching on make sure that the voltage of your electricity supply is the same as that indicated on the rating plate.
Mains Cord
This appliance may be fitted with a non-rewireable plug. If it is necessary to change the fuse in a non-rewireable plug the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a replacement available from the appliance manufacturer is obtained. It is important that the colour of the replacement fuse cover corresponds with the rating marking on the base of the plug. If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or becomes damaged, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted following the wiring instructions below. The plug removed must be disposed of safely as insertion into a 13A socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard. For your own safety read the following instructions carefully before attempting to connect this unit to mains. The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
BLUE=NEUTRAL, BROWN=LIVE
Important
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:­The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. No connection is to be made to the earth terminal of the plug. If a 13 Amp (BS 1363) Plug is used, a 3 Amp Fuse must be fitted, or if any other type of Plug is used a 3 or 5 Amp Fuse must be fitted, either in the Plug or Adaptor, or on the Distribution Board.
Mains Supply:220 - 240 V 50 Hz - AC only
Do not make any connection to the larger pin marked with the letter “E” or by the symbol or coloured green or green and yellow.

Setting up Your DVD/VCR
Before Connecting
• Be sure to turn off the unit and equipment to be connected before connecting.
• Refer to the instruction books for your TV, stereo system and any other equipment to be connected.
• Be sure to keep the unit connection cables separate from the TV antenna cable when you install the unit, because it may cause electrical interference when you are watching television programmes.
• DTS audio cannot be produced with an analogue connection.
• Please refer to the instruction books of your TV, DVD/ VCR, Stereo System or other devices as necessary to make the best connections.
• Make one of the following connections, depending on the capabilities of your existing equipment.
The following guidelines are options for the best picture and sound quality available on your DVD/VCR.
Picture
1) Use SCART Output (DVD/VCR(AV1 TV)) for the best
picture quality (for DVD and VCR features).
2) Use S-Video Output for the better picture quality (for
DVD features only).
Note: • When your TV conforms to RGB input signal, the
Euro AV (scart) connection ensures you the best picture and audio quality. However if your TV does not conform to RGB input signal, the S-VIDEO OUT and ANALOG AUDIO OUT connection is better (for DVD features only).
Sound
1) Use SCART Output (DVD/VCR(AV1 TV)) for best
sound quality (for DVD and VCR features).
2) Digital audio connections provide the clearest sound.
Connect the unit’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (either COAXIAL or OPTICAL) to your amplifier or receiver (for DVD features only).
3) If digital connections are not possible, connect the unit’s
ANALOG AUDIO OUT (Left and Right) to your amplifier, receiver, stereo or TV (for DVD features only).
WARNING!
• Never make or change connections with the power switched on.
• Connect the unit directly to your TV, instead of eg. a VCR, to avoid distortion because DVD-Video discs are copy protected.
• Do not connect the ANALOG AUDIO OUT of the unit to PHONO IN of your amplifier or receiver.
• If you use the scart cable, it is not necessary to connect the analog audio cables.
Connecting to a TV
1) Disconnect the TV’s power cord from the AC outlet.
2) Disconnect the antenna or cable from your TV.
3) Connect that antenna or cable to the AERIAL jack of this
unit.
4) Connect the RF OUT jack of this unit to the antenna in
jack of your TV. Use the supplied RF cable.
5) Connect the AV1 (TV) scart jack of this unit to the scart
input jack of your TV. Use the supplied scart cable.
6) Plug in the TV and this unit.
Note: • The TV must be connected to this unit through AV1
(TV) jack. A connection to AV2 (DECODER) jack will not function correctly.
Playback picture from DVD and VCR cannot be
delivered through the RF cable. The RF cable is only for sending the antenna signal to the TV.

Video Cassette Tape
This unit will operate with any cassette that bears the VHS mark. For best results, we recommend the use of high-quality tapes. Do not use poor quality or damaged tapes.
• You can prevent accidental erasing of a recording by breaking off the erase-prevention tab on the back edge of the cassette.
• If you decide to record on the tape again, cover the hole with plastic tape.
TV Colour System
Different countries use different television colour systems. Tapes recorded in the PAL or NTSC system can be played back on this unit. Usually, the picture on the TV screen will be in black and white when you play back a tape that is recorded in a different colour system.
Tapes recorded in the NTSC system can be played back on this unit and a PAL system TV set. This feature is only available in the SP mode. When playing back such tapes, the picture may roll up or down, shrink vertically and black bars may appear both at the top and bottom of the screen. Adjust the vertical hold control on your TV, if the TV features this control.
