(In this case, Programme 1 will be recorded in its entirety, but only the last 30 minutes of Programme 2 will be recorded.) Video Programme System (VPS) The Video Programme System (VPS) ensures that the TV programmes that you have programmed for timer recording will be recorded exactly from their beginning to end, even if the actual broadcasting time differs from the scheduled time due to delayed start, or if the programme is extended beyond its scheduled time. Also, if a programme is interrupted, for example, if a news flash is inserted, the recording will also be interrupted automatically and resumed when the programme continues. The VPS signal is broadcast by the TV station and this controls the timer in the video recorder. VPS should be set ON for all timer recordings from TV stations broadcasting these signals. It should be set OFF for all timer recordings from TV stations that are not broadcasting these signals. The similar system PDC, which is used in the time being in the Netherlands, can also be used with your new video recorder. *** Playing a DVD or General Features Video CD Note: Playback Setup Turn 1. on the TV and select the video connected to the DVD Turn 2. the on the audio input source input source player. system (if applicable) and select connected to the DVD player.

Video Head Cleaning Whenever a video cassette is inserted into or ejected from your VCR the video head is automatically cleaned. This should mean that additional head cleaning should not be necessary. However dirt accumulating on the head after a long period of time can cause the playback picture to become blurred or broken up. High quality video cassette tapes will not normally deposit dirt onto the video head, but old or damaged tapes might. 39 Specification General Power requirements Power consumption Dimensions Mass AC 200-240V, 50 Hz 19W 430 X 78.5 X 270 (approx.) 4.2 (approx.) mm (w/h/d) kg Operating temperature 5˚C to 35˚C Operating humidity 5%to90% Timer 24 hours RF Modulator UHF 22 (41˚F to 95˚F) display tape - 68 (Adjustable) System Laser Semiconductor laser, Video Head wavelength Double azimuth 4 heads, helical system 650 Signal system PAL Frequency DVD(PCM96kHz):8Hzto44kHz DVD(PCM48kHz):8Hzto22kHz response nm scanning.
