Setting up your TV  
To receive SKY 1 you need a satelite tuner. You must have  
the satellite tuner set to SKY 1 before starting the AUTO  
PROGRAM function which follows.  
Note:  
BBC1, BBC2, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 are  
automatically set to programme numbers PR 1 to PR  
5. SKY 1 is set to programme number PR 6, but no  
TV channel name (ID) is set. If the TV doesn’t receive  
one of these TV channels, that programme number  
(PR) will not be set.  
If a TV channel you want to view is not set to a  
programme number (PR), you can set it using the  
MANUAL function. For details, see “EDIT/MANUAL”  
on page 25.

The AUTO PROGRAM menu appears and the TV  
channels you receive are automatically stored in the  
programme numbers list (PR).  
The AUTO PROGRAM function does not set the  
programme number PR 0 (AV) for your video  
cassette recorder. You will need to set this using the  
MANUAL function.  
In some areas you may get TV reception from more  
than one transmitter, for example different ITV  
regions. In this case each TV channel could be set  
twice. If this happens, the first set of channels will  
have the stronger signal. If you want to delete the  
second set of channels, you will have to do it  
manually (see page 27).  
To cancel the AUTO PROGRAM function:

When you have a T-V LINK compatible VCR connected to the  
EXT-2 Terminal on the TV, it is easier to set up the VCR and  
to view videos. T-V LINK uses the following features:

LPDJH#YLHZ  
When the VCR starts playing, the TV automatically turns on  
and the images from the EXT-2 terminal appear on the  
screen.  
3UH0VHW#GRZQORDG  
The VCR will automatically download the registered data on  
the TV channels from the TV. This means you do not need to  
set up the program channels on your VCR manually.  
The preset download function automatically begins when the  
initial setting is complete or whenever you carry out the AUTO  
PROGRAM or EDIT/MANUAL functions.  
When the VCR menu is operated, the TV automatically turns  
on and the images from the EXT-2 terminal appear on the  
screen.  
This function does not happen if your TV’s main power is  
turned off. Set your TV’s main power to on (standby mode).  
You can also carry out this function using your VCR controls.  
Note:  
When “FEATURE NOT AVAILABLE” is displayed:  
A “T-V LINK compatible VCR” means a JVC video  
cassette recorder with the T-V LINK logo, or with one of  
the following logos. However, these VCRs may support  
some or all of the features described earlier. For details,  
see your VCR instruction manual.  
If “FEATURE NOT AVAILABLE” is displayed, the download  
was not performed correctly. Before trying to download again,  
check that:  
the VCR power is turned on  
the VCR is T-V LINK compatible  
the VCR is connected to the EXT-2 terminal  
the SCART cable is fully wired.

“What You See Is What You Record”  
You can easily record to VCR the images that you are  
watching on the TV.  
For details, read the manual for your VCR.  
Use your VCR controls. “VCR IS RECORDING” is displayed.  
In the following situations, the VCR will stop recording if  
the TV is turned off, if the TV channel or input is changed,  
or if the menu is displayed on the TV:  
when recording images from an external device connected  
to the TV (for example a camcorder)  
when recording a TV channel after it has been unscrambled  
on a decoder  
when recording a TV channel by using the TV’s output  
because the VCR’s own tuner cannot properly receive that  
channel  
You cannot carry out Direct Rec using your TV’s control.  
Generally, the VCR cannot record a TV channel that it  
cannot receive properly on its own tuner, even if you can  
view that TV channel on the TV. However, some VCRs  
can record a TV channel by using the TV’s output if that  
channel can be viewed on the TV. For details, see your  
VCR instruction manual.

If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this troubleshooting guide carefully before you ask to have the TV  
repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example, if the mains plug is disconnected from the mains outlet, or the  
TV aerial has problems, you may think there is a problem with the TV itself.  
Important:  
This troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose causes are not easy to decide. If you have a question when you are  
operating a function, read the page(s) for that function carefully, not this troubleshooting guide.  
If you follow the advice in this troubleshooting guide without any success, unplug the mains plug and ask for your TV to be  
repaired. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or to remove the rear cover of the TV.

If the TV or aerial suffers interference from other equipment,  
stripes or noise may appear in the picture. Move any

If the TV suffers interference from signals reflecting from

description “COLOUR SYSTEM” on page 18 to try to solve  
the trouble.  
If you bring a magnetised device such as a speaker near to  
your TV, the picture may be warped or unnatural colors now  
appear at the corners of the screen. In this case, keep the  
device away from your TV. If speakers cause this to happen,  
use magnetic-shielded speakers instead.  
Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings been adjusted  
properly? Follow the description “Picture adjustment” on  
page 17 to try to adjust them properly.  
Videotaping teletext is not recommended because it may  
not record correctly.  
The TV may make a crackling sound due to a sudden  
change in temperature. The picture or sound may be nomal.  
If you hear crackling sounds frequently while you are  
viewing the TV, there may be other causes. As a precaution,  
ask your service technician to inspect it.  
When a white and bright still image (such as a white dress)  
is displayed on the screen, the white part may look as if it is  
coloured. This is unavoidable due to the nature of the picture  
tube itself, and not due to a TV failure. When the picture  
disappears from the screen, the unnatural colours will also  
disappear.  
Touching the screen may cause you to feel a slight electric  
shock due to its static electricity. This is unavoidable due to  
the construction of the picture tube. It is not a problem with  
the TV. You can rest assured that this static discharge is not  
harmful.
