Thank you for buying a Philips TV-Video combi. This TV-Video combi is one of the most sophisticat-

ed and easy-to-use TV-Video combi on the market. Please take the time to read this operating manu-

al before using your TV-Video combi. It contains important information and notes regarding operation.

The TV-Video combi should not be turned on immediately after transportation from a cold to a

hot area or vice versa, or in conditions of extreme humidity. Wait at least three hours after transport-

ing the device. The TV-Video combi needs this time in order to become acclimatised to its new envi-

ronment (temperature, air humidity, etc.).

This TV-Video combi is used for the recording and playback of VHS videocassettes.

Cassettes with the VHS-C label (VHS cassettes for camcorders) may only be used

with a suitable adapter.

Preparation for use

Decoder allocation

This chapter shows you how to prepare your TV-

Video Combi for use. The TV-Video Combi auto-

matically seeks out and stores all available TV

channels.

Some TV channels transmit encoded TV signals

which can only be viewed with a commercially

purchased or hired decoder without distur-

bances. You can connect such a decoder to this

TV-Video Combi. The following function will auto-

matically activate the connected decoder for the

desired TV channel.

Connecting additional devices

After you have connected additional devices

(satellite receiver, etc.) through the aerial cable,

switch them on. The automatic channel search

will recognise them and save them.

To help reduce these from occurring, proceed as

follows:

Use 'Manual Recording' to make a sponta-

neous recording (for example, a programme cur-

rently being shown).

If you want to start and stop a recording manual-

ly, read the section 'Recording without auto-

matic switch-off'.

1.Find the tape position of the old recording

where you want to insert the new recording.

2.Look at the last minute of the old recording

General information

Programming a recording

Use a TIMER programming to automatically start

and stop a recording at a later time or date. The

TV-Video Combi will switch to the right pro-

gramme number and begin recording at the cor-

rect time. With this TV-Video Combi, you can

pre-programme up to eight recordings within a

period of one year. To make a programmed

recording, your TV-Video Combi needs to know:

*the date you want to make the recording

*the programme number of the TV channel

*the start and stop time of the recording
