Advanced features Help & specificationRecordingBasic VCR features

Safety Warnings

Your VCR is supplied with

an approved 13 amp fused

mains plug. When

replacing the fuse always

use a 3 amp (BS 1362)

approved type.

To obtain a replacement

fuse or fuse cover contact

your store.

Never use this plug if the

fuse cover is missing.

If the mains sockets in your

home differ or are not

suitable for the type of plug

supplied, then the plug

should be cut from the

mains lead and a suitable

type fitted. You must use a

13amp plug (BS 1363) and

fit a 3 amp fuse (BS 1362).

If any other type of plug is

used a 3 amp fuse must be

fitted, either in the plug,

adaptor or at the

distribution board. Please

refer to the wiring

instructions on page 15.

Damage - Never use your VCR if it

is damaged in any way. Always place

your VCR on a flat level surface

avoiding anywhere which may be

subject to strong vibration.

Weather - It is advisable to unplug

the aerial during an electrical storm.

Moisture - Do not allow your VCR

to be exposed to rain, moisture or

dust. If any liquid is spilt into your

VCR it can cause serious damage. If

you do spill liquid into your VCR

switch it off at the mains immediately

and contact your store.

Interference

Do not place your VCR on or near

appliances which may cause

electromagnetic interference (TV or Hi-

Fi speakers). If you do, it may

adversely affect the working of the

unit, causing erratic playback and

distorted picture or sound.

Temperature

Avoid extremes of temperature, either

hot or cold, place your VCR well

away from heat sources such as

radiators or gas/electric fires.

Ventilation

The VCR must be well ventilated. Do

not cover your VCR or place inside a

small confined space. It is

recommended that you leave a 10cm

gap all around your VCR.

Batteries

Batteries are easily swallowed by

young children. Do not allow young

children to play with the remote

control unit.

Covers - Do not remove any fixed

covers as this may expose dangerous

voltages.

Your VCR can playback

video tapes recorded using

the NTSC colour system (TV

system used in the UK).

Play an NTSC tape as you

would a normal VHS tape.

Your VCR will playback NTSC

tapes recorded using

Standard play (SP), Long

play (LP) and Extended play

(EP). However, there will be a

deterioration in sound quality

in the LP and EP modes.

If your TV supports the NTSC

system, the picture from your

VCR will fill the whole screen,

if not, the picture will have a

black band at the top and

bottom of the screen.

Please note that there will be

no sound during PAUSE.

Playing a tape

Press the VCR ON button to switch your

Press the STOP button to stop the tape.

Press the PAUSE button while the tape is

search) press PLAY then either REW or

F.FWD.

‘REVEW’ or ‘CUE’ will appear in the

VCR display.

The speed of the search time depends on

the speed used during recording, either

standard play (SP) or long play (LP).

Standard Play (SP)

1st press . . . . . .5 times normal speed

2nd press . . . . . 7 times normal speed

(NTSC times are slower)

Try changing output number

Press the -CH/TR+ buttons on the front of

your VCR to change the number. Now tune

your VCR channel on your TV again until

the black and white test pattern appears.

Store your selection

If the pattern is now clear, press the ON

button to remove the black and white test

pattern. If the pattern is still not clear, try

changing the number again (see stage 3)

and re-tune your TV until the pattern is

clear.

Sometimes during

one copy of the

same channel or

z

Occasionally, when a recording starts at the very beginning of a VCR tape

the index mark will be missed.

z

When your VCR is searching for an index mark it will not fast forward or

rewind as fast as normal because it is searching for the index marks.

z

A maximum of 9 index marks can be searched on a single VCR tape.

The Video index

search system

allows you to

beginning of any

recording made on

your VCR.
