Automatic Degaussing to Remove Colour Patches

A degaussing coil is mounted around the picture tube so that external degaussing after moving the

receiver is normally unnecessary. If the receiver is moved or placed in a different direction, or, a

coloured patch appears on the screen, the main power switch must be switched to the off position for

120minutes or the power cord must be unplugged for the same interval to allow the automatic degauss

circuits to operate properly.

For safety, the receiver should be switched off from the main power switch when it is unattended.

Magnetic fields can cause your television to malfunction. Degaussing is a process that neutralises

magnetic fields.

Storing the Stations Automatically (depending on the model)

You can scan the frequency ranges available on your television and

in your country and store all the stations found automatically. If

you have a dual tuner model, the stations are stored for both tuners

at the same time (television and VCR).

INPUT

The stations are stored in the order in which they appear in the

frequency bands. It is possible that the automatically allocated

programme numbers may not correspond to those by which you

wish to identify the stations. If this is the case, you can then sort

them manually and clear any stations that you do not wish to watch

(see page 14 for further details).

P 02

If you wish to receive a scrambled television station,

check that the decoder is switched off. Switch it back on

Wiring the Mains Power Supply Plug (UK Only)

IMPORTANT NOTICE

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is

indicated on the pin face of the plug and, if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BSI1362 of the same rating

must be used.

Never use the plug with the fuse cover omitted if the cover is detachable. If a replacement fuse cover is required,

it must be of the same colour as the pin face of the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power

point, you should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.

However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug.

Do NOT connect the plug to a mains socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.

IMPORTANT

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

BLUE - NEUTRAL

BROWN - LIVE

As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as

follows: The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or

BLACK. The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured

BROWN or RED.
