Safety Precautions  
Warning: To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this  
equipment to rain or moisture.  
FCC Warning: Any unauthorized changes or modifications to this  
equipment void the users authority to operate it.  
This TV/VCR, equipped with a High Quality (HQ) system, is com-  
patible with existing Video Home System (VHS) equipment.  
Philips Consum er Electronics Com pany recommends that  
you use only video cassette tapes that have been tested and  
inspected for use in two, four, six, and eight hour VCRs, and  
which are labeled with the  
mark. The use of tapes that  
have not been inspected for use in two, four, six, and eight hour  
VCRs may result in poor picture quality and excessive deposits on  
the video heads, which may not be covered by the warranty if  
damage occurs.  
Note to the Cable TV System Installer: This reminder is  
provided to call the Cable TV system installers attention to  
Article 820-40 of the National Electrical Code, which provides  
guidelines for proper grounding – in particular, specifying that the  
cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the  
building, as close to the point of cable entry as possible.

12 Setting the Clock  
There are three ways to set the clock: Manually, with Automatic  
PBS Channel Selection, or with Manual PBS Channel Selection.  
With manual clock setting, you tell the TV/VCR the current time.  
With Automatic or Manual PBS Channel Selection, the TV/VCR  
gets the time from your local PBS station. If you use either Manual  
PBS Channel Selection or Automatic PBS Channel Selection, fol-  
low the steps on page 19 to have the TV/VCR maintain the clock  
according to your Time Zone.  
To set the clock manually, follow the steps on pages 12 -13. To  
set the clock using Automatic PBS Channel Selection, follow the  
steps on pages 14 - 15. To set the clock using Manual PBS  
Channel Selection, follow the steps on pages 16 - 17.  
Before you begin, make sure:  
The TV/VCR is hooked up and turned on.  
Channels are set up.  
You make each entry within 60 seconds of the previous entry.

38 Closed Caption  
When you watch a program that is being broadcast with closed  
captions, you can access on-screen boxes containing the pro-  
grams dialogue (for example, what a character is saying), dialogue  
in a foreign language, or information (such as a channel guide,  
schedule, or announcements). Follow the steps below to select  
closed captions.  
Not all TV programs and commercials are broadcast with closed  
captions. Similarly, all types of closed captions (second language,  
half-screen text, etc.) are not always broadcast. If closed caption-  
ing is not broadcast, you cannot receive it. This does not indicate  
a problem with the TV/VCR. Refer to your areas TV program  
listings for the shows offered with closed captions.

Automatic Operation Features 45  
The following playback features will always operate.  
Autom atic Playback  
When you put a tape in the TV/VCR, the power will come on  
automatically. If the tapes record tab is missing, playback will  
begin. If a timer recording is set, the power will not come on  
automatically when you insert a tape with the record tab intact. If  
a timer recording is set and the TV/VCR power is off, the  
TV/VCR will eject the tape if the record tab is missing.  
Autom atic Rewind, Eject, O ff  
When a tape is played, fast forwarded, or recorded to its end, the  
TV/VCR will rewind the tape, stop, turn itself off, and eject the  
tape. If a real-time counter memory is set, the TV/VCR will only  
rewind the tape to the point at which the counter was set to  
zero, then stop. The TV/VCR will not turn itself off or eject the  
tape.  
Mem ory Rewind, Power O ff  
When the POWER button is pressed while the TV/VCR is rewind-  
ing a tape, REW POWER OFF will appear on-screen. The  
TV/VCR will turn itself off when the tape has finished rewinding.  
If a real-time counter memory is set, the TV/VCR may only  
rewind the tape to the point at which the counter was set to  
zero, then turn itself off.  
Tape Eject  
A tape can be ejected with the TV/VCR power on or off (but the  
TV/VCR must be plugged in). If a timer recording is programmed,  
a tape can not be ejected when the power is off. Turn on the  
TV/VCR power, then eject the tape. Be sure to insert a tape and  
turn off the TV/VCR power for the timer recording.  
Autom atic Tracking Adjustm ent  
The TV/VCR automatically adjusts the tracking to give you the  
best possible picture quality. With some recordings, however,  
you may get a better picture using the manual tracking controls  
(see below).

Location  
For safe operation and satisfactory performance of your TV/VCR, remember the following:  
Shield it from direct sunlight and keep it away from sources of intense heat.  
• Avoid dusty or humid places.  
• Avoid places with insufficient ventilation. Do not block the ventilation openings at the top and bottom  
of the TV/VCR. Do not place the TV/VCR on a carpet, as this will block the ventilation openings.  
• Avoid locations subject to strong vibrations.  
• Do not place the TV/VCR near strong magnetic fields.  
• Do not move the TV/VCR from a cold place to a hot place, or vice versa.  
Electrical Shock And Fire Hazards  
• Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.  
• Do not pull the power cord when disconnecting the TV/VCR from the AC (alternating current) wall  
outlet. Grasp it by the plug.  
• If water is spilled on the TV/VCR, unplug the power cord immediately and take the TV/VCR to an  
authorized service center.  
• Do not put your fingers or objects into the TV/VCR cassette compartment.  
• Do not place anything on top of the TV/VCR.  
Dew W arning (Moisture Condensation)  
Moisture may condense inside the unit when it is moved from a cold place to a warm place, after heat-  
ing a cold room, or when the humidity is high. There is no warning that moisture has accumulated in  
your TV/VCR. If you try to play a tape in a TV/VCR in which moisture has accumulated, the tape and  
the TV/VCR could be damaged. If you think moisture may have accumulated inside the TV/VCR, keep  
the TV/VCR power on (but do not play a tape) for at least two hours. This will allow the TV/VCR to  
dry.  
TV/VCR will not perform a tim er recording.  
Make sure the recording start and stop times are set correctly (pages 32 - 35). Midnight is 12 a.m.  
Noon is 12 p.m.  
Make sure the TV/VCR power is off.  
Make sure the clock is set (pages 12 - 17).  
Make sure there is a tape in the TV/VCR. The tape must have a record tab.  
• If the power fails, programmed timer recordings will be restored when the clock is reset. (The clock  
will reset itself automatically if you are using the AUTO CLOCK feature. Details are on pages 14 - 17.  
If you are not using the AUTO CLOCK feature, reset the clock manually. Details are on pages 12 -  
13.) The timer recording will not occur only if the timer recording was scheduled to take place during  
the power failure.  
Make sure DEFEAT RECORDING is set to OFF (page 36).  
TV/VCR will not record.  
Make sure the tape has a record tab (page five).  
Make sure DEFEAT RECORDING is set to OFF (page 36).
