If your local VHF/ UHF signal is strong, an indoor aerial can be used to  
obtain a clear picture. Connect the supplied loop aerial as follows:  
1 Insert the aerial until it clicks.  
2 Connect to the ˘ (aerial) socket.  
After turning on the video TV, adjust the aerial for the best reception.  
Be sure to adjust the aerial for the channel you want to record as well. If

Tim e r re co rd in g w it h PDC sig n a ls  
The German broadcasting system transmits PDC (Programme Delivery  
Control) signals with the TV programmes. These signals assure you that  
your timer recordings are made regardless of broadcast delays, early  
starts, or broadcast interruptions. For example, if an urgent news bulletin  
interrupts a regular programme, recording stops. As soon as the  
interrupted programme resumes, recording starts again.

Taking Care of Your Video TV  
Vid e o h e a d cle a n in g  
When playback pictures are noisy and hardly visible, or when no picture  
appears, the video heads may be contaminated. In such a case, clean the  
video heads using the V-25CL video head cleaning tape (not supplied), or  
ask Sony service personnel to clean the video heads.

If your video TV displays a poor picture after you clean the video heads,  
you may need to replace them. Consult your dealer or the Sony Service  
Center nearest you.

h o u rs o f u se  
A video TV is a high precision machine. It must record on or play from  
magnetic tapes on which the image signals from the colour TV or the  
video camcorder are recorded.  
The video heads or mechanical parts for transporting the tape are  
contaminated or worn after extended use. You should have your video TV  
checked after each 1,000 hours of use.  
No t e  
Do not use a commercially available  
wet-type cleaning tape, as it may  
damage the video heads.
