Safety Precautions

W arning: To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose

this equipm ent to rain or m oisture.

Federal Com m unications Com m ission W arning: Any unau-

thorized changes or m odifications to this equipm ent void

the user’s authority to operate it.

This VCR has a High Quality (HQ) system and is compatible with

existing Video Home System (VHS) equipment.

Philips Consumer Electronics recommends you use only video cas-

sette tapes that have the

mark. The use of other tapes may

result in poor picture quality and excessive deposits on the video

heads, which may not be covered by the warranty if damage occurs.

The 19 micron head provides a better picture when you view tapes

recorded in slow speed (SLP).

Note to the Cable TV System Installer: This reminder is pro-

vided to call the Cable TV system installer’s 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.

Helpful Hint

• Your new product, its packaging,

and this manual contain materials

that can be recycled and reused.

Specialized companies can recycle

your product to increase the

S-VHS Q uasi Play Back (SQ PB)

This unit has a SQPB function that allows you to view a tape

recorded in S-VHS format. A tape recorded in S-VHS format will

play the same as a tape recorded in normal format. This unit auto-

matically detects whether the tape is recorded in S-VHS format or

in normal format.

When you play a tape recorded in S-VHS format on this unit, you

can not get the high resolution that would be available on an S-

VHS VCR. Noise lines (black and white streaks) may appear on

the picture.

If a timer recording is set, the power will not come on automati-

cally when you insert a tape with the record tab intact.

If a timer recording is set and the VCR power is off, the VCR will

eject the tape if the record tab is missing.

Autom atic Rewind, Eject, O ff

When you play, fast forward, or record a tape to its end, the VCR

will rewind the tape to the beginning, stop, eject the tape, then

turn itself off.

If the real-time counter memory is set, the VCR will only rewind

the tape to the point at which the counter is set to zero, then

stop. The VCR will not eject the tape automatically or shut itself

off. If REPEAT PLAY is set to ON, the VCR will not eject the tape

automatically or shut itself off. Playback will continue as set for

Repeat Play.

Tape Eject

You can eject a tape with the VCR power on or off (but the VCR

must be plugged in). If you have set a timer recording, you can

only eject a tape with the VCR power on. Make sure you insert a

tape and turn off the VCR power for the timer recording.

Autom atic Tracking Adjustm ent

The VCR adjusts tracking automatically to give you the best possi-

ble picture quality. With some recordings, however, you may get a

better picture using the manual tracking controls (see below).

Manual Tracking

To manually adjust the tracking during normal playback and slow

motion playback, press the CHANNEL o/p buttons on the

VCR. (The CH(annel) o/p buttons on the remote control will

not adjust tracking.)

Tracking will return to Automatic Tracking Adjustment when you

press the STOP/p button or insert a tape.

You cannot manually adjust the tracking of a Still picture.

However, you may press the CHANNEL o/p buttons on the

VCR to remove vertical jitter in a Still picture.

40 Multi-Channel Television Sound System

Your VCR can play recordings broadcast in Hi-Fi (high fidelity) stereo, which produces a crisp, clear sound

from two sources. Your VCR also can play tapes recorded in a second audio (usually, that means your

program is recorded in a second language). Of course, your VCR will play tapes recorded in monaural

(single-source) sound as well.

Your VCR also will record in Hi-Fi stereo or in second audio, so when you play that tape on the VCR, it

will be in stereo or second audio.

Read the directions on this page to familiarize yourself with your VCR’s stereo and second audio setups.

Then follow the directions on page 41 to record in stereo or second audio and the directions on page 42

to play tapes recorded in Hi-Fi stereo.

Understanding O n-Screen Displays

When you receive a signal from a channel you’re watching, portions of the on-screen display shown below

will appear when you press the STATUS/EXIT button on the remote control.

The indication 2ND AUD or TV

STEREO that appears on this side of

the status display tells you if your

VCR is receiving a second audio or

stereo broadcast. Although a program

may be broadcast in both stereo and

second audio, you cannot record in

both stereo and second audio at the

same time.

The indication 2ND AUD or STEREO

that appears on this side of the status

display tells you if the program you’re

watching is available in second audio

or stereo. This indication is not avail-

able during tape playback.

Even though a program is available in

stereo or second audio, you still must

program the VCR to receive or record

the program. Follow the directions on

page 41.

Helpful Hints (cont’d) 45

You can not insert a tape.

• Insert the tape, window side up, with the record tab facing you.

• Make sure a tape isn’t already in the VCR by pressing the STOP/EJECT button on the VCR.

• Gently push on the center of the tape when putting it in the VCR. Never force the tape into the VCR.

• If you have programmed a timer recording and the VCR power is off, you can not insert a tape without a

record tab.

You can not rem ove a tape.

and turn off the power for your timer recording.

VCR ejects the tape when you press the REC(ord)/O TR button or when you turn off the VCR

power for a tim er recording.

• Make sure the tape has a record tab. Details are on page five.

Poor reception

• You may need to tune your TV again.

The m otor (cylinder) rotates even when the VCR is in Stop m ode.

• To enable the quick play mechanism, the cylinder will rotate for about five minutes. This is normal. The

quick play mechanism allows the tape mechanism to switch from Stop mode to Play mode in one second.

Direct Broadcast System Hookups

• Watching one TV channel while recording another may not be possible if you have a DBS hookup. You

may have to set your TV to channel 03 or 04, then make your channel selections at the DBS.

• If you use audio and video cables to connect your DBS, VCR, and TV, you may have to put your VCR in

Line Input mode (channel 001 or 002).

Line Input m ode

• If you accidentally enter Line Input mode (AV FRONT or AV REAR will appear on your TV screen

briefly), press the CH(annel) o/p buttons or use the Number buttons to select another channel.

Hi-Fi Stereo Sound

• During playback, Hi-Fi audio may temporarily revert to normal audio when you adjust tracking. This is

normal.

• When connecting the VCR to a stereo TV, you will only get stereo sound if you use audio cables to con-

nect the AUDIO OUT jacks on the VCR to the AUDIO IN jacks on your TV, and if the TV is in Line

(Auxiliary) Input mode.

• When you connect the AUDIO OUT jacks on the VCR to the AUDIO IN jacks on your TV, the stereo

light on the TV might not glow. But, as long as the status display indicates you are receiving a stereo sig-

nal, you are receiving a stereo signal. This is normal.

• Only tapes recorded in Hi-Fi audio will play back in Hi-Fi audio. Tapes recorded in normal audio will

play back in monaural audio.

Cleaning the Video Heads

• Your VCR automatically cleans the video heads each time you insert a tape. However, the heads may

become dirty. If so, use a commercially-available head cleaner or have an authorized servicer clean the

video heads. Eventually, you may need to replace the heads.

The playback picture is too dim , too bright, or fluctuates in brightness.

• Some programs may be broadcast with copyright protection technology in order to protect the rights of

Video Discs (DVDs), as well as some programs broadcast by antenna/cable/satellite television channels.

Programs broadcast with copyright protection technology may not record clearly. Likewise, if you play a

tape that is a recording of a copyright protected program, the picture may not be clear. Tapes of copy-

right protected programs may have a picture that is dark or dim, or the brightness of the picture may

fluctuate. Therefore, you should avoid recording or playing copies of copyright protected programs.

This VCR incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by method claims of certain
