Special functions on your TV-Video Combi
If a TV channel which transmits Teletext/PDC is stored under programme number ’P01’, time and date will automatically be taken from Teletext/PDC information.
Philips has developed a system which produces the best possible playback quality. The interferences are reduced in old, frequently used video cassettes.
The details are enhanced with very good cassettes.
When you have plugged your TV-Video Combi into the mains, you will be welcomed with an OSD picture. All you have to do is follow the instructions in the "intelligent help line" for the next step. Enjoy the automatic channel search/store.
If you would like to be woken up by the TV, you can easily programme your
TV-Video Combi. It will switch on at the desired time.
The tape speed for the recordings is cut in half, thus you can record 8 hours onto a 4-hour-cassette. For playback, the correct recording speed will automatically be selected.
With this set you can playback cassettes that have been recorded on another video recorder in the NTSC standard (for example, American cassettes).
Switching between the different TV Systems takes place automatically.
The TV-Video Combi shuts itself off automatically after a certain pre-programmed time period has elapsed (max. 4 hours).
Sleep timer settings can be programmed in steps of 15 minutes each.

CONNECT THE TV-VIDEO COMBI
Important for the United Kingdom Placing the batteries in the remote control
This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:
a
Open up the battery compartment of your remote control and place the batteries in it as shown in the picture.
a
Remove fuse cover and fuse.
b
Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5A, A.S.T.A. or
BSI approved type.
c
Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of
5A. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5A.
D Note: * The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a
13A socket elsewhere.
b
Close the battery compartment.
How to connect a plug:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
BLUE - ’NEUTRAL’ (’N’)
BROWN - ’LIVE’ (’L’)
d
The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter ’N’ or coloured BLACK.
e
The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter ’L’ or coloured RED.
f
Do not connect either wires to the earth terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter ’E’ or by the safety earth symbol
\ or coloured green or green-and-yellow.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not imply over the two wires.
Connecting the cables Connecting a decoder or other equipment
You can also connect additional equipment to the
EXT socket; for instance, a decoder, satellite receiver or camcorder.
a
Insert the aerial plug into the
2 socket.
b
Insert the plug of the mains cable into the wall socket.
c
If the little red standby light (
STANDBY 5
) at the front panel of the set is not lit, please switch on the set using the main power switch. The power switch

IMPORTANT NOTES FOR OPERATION
General information
E We suggest that, from now on, you switch off your
TV-Video Combi with the m button on the front of the set or with the
STANDBY m button on the remote control.
When the set is in the standby mode, a small red lamp
(
STANDBY 5
) at the front of the set will be alight.
E You can switch the machine on with the
;P q
,
=P r or
0..9
buttons or by inserting a cassette.
AAttention: If you use the power switch
8 on the side panel, you switch off the set completely from the mains power supply. No programmed recordings are possible in this state. The red standby lamp (
STANDBY 5
) at the front of the set will not be alight. After some time, the date and clock settings will be lost.
We therefore advise you to keep your TV-Video Combi connected to the mains and keep the mains switch
8 on at all times to ensure that programmed recordings can be made and that the television works normally. The power consumption will be low.
E Attention: If you switch off the appliance using the power switch
8
, make sure that you have removed the tape by pressing the
?
button.
E If the TV-Video Combi does not receive a signal for more than 15 minutes, it switches off automatically to conserve energy.
E If the TV-Video Combi is not plugged into the mains, the
TV channel information is stored for approx. one year and the clock and timer information will be stored for approx.
30 minutes.
E If a TV channel which transmits Teletext/PDC is stored under programme number ’P01’ , time and date will automatically be taken from the Teletext/PDC information after an interruption of the power supply to the set.
