performance it is recommended batteries be replaced on a yearly basis, or when remote operation becomes
erratic.
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Weak batteries can leak and severely damage the remote control transmitter. Always remove batteries as
soon as they become weak.
EFFECTIVE DISTANCE OF THE REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER
NOTES: • When direct sunlight, an incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp or any other strong light shines on the
remote sensor, the remote operation may be unstable.
• When there is an obstacle between the unit and the transmitter, the remote control transmitter may not
operate.

RECEPTION OF INTERFERENCE
The most common types of television interference are as follows.
IGNITION
Black spots and horizontal streaks may appear, the picture may flutter or drift. This is usually
caused by interference from car ignition system, neon lamps, electric drills or other electrical
appliances.
IGNITION
GHOSTING
Ghosting is caused by the TV signal following two paths. One is the direct path and the other
is reflected from tall buildings, hills or similar obstruction. Changing the direction and/or position
of the aerial may improve reception.
GHOSTING
SNOW
If your TV is located on the fringe area of a TV station, where the signal is weak, your picture
may be affected by the appearance of small dots (SNOW). It may be necessary to install a
stronger aerial to improve the picture.

Teletext offers news, weather forecast, winning Lotto numbers, TV listings and other interesting news.
The text is received page by page, as soon as you select the broadcasting station. A single page can be displayed on
the screen. The pages are numbered and broadcasted one by one. Therefore you'll have to wait a certain time until the
selected page is displayed on the screen. The page will be displayed as soon as it is broadcast.
Certain pages can be displayed more easily by pressing one of the FOUR COLOURED TELETEXT buttons.

a VTR, DVD+VTR, DVD-R etc and when the input of the recordable equipment is also selected to AV1, there maybe
