REMOTE CONTROL

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Open the battery compartment cover in the direction of the arrow.

Install two “AAA/R03/UM-4”

(penlight size) batteries, paying attention to the polarity diagram in the battery compartment.

Replace the cover.

BATTERY CAUTIONS

• Use two "AAA/R03/UM-4" size penlight batteries for the remote control transmitter.

• The batteries may last approximately one year depending on how much the remote control is used. For best performance it is recommended batteries be replaced on a yearly basis, or when remote operation becomes erratic.

• Do not mix old and new batteries.

• Weak batteries can leak and severely damage the remote control transmitter. Always remove batteries as soon as they become weak.

EFFECTIVE DISTANCE OF THE REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER

NOTES: • When direct sunlight, an incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp or any other strong light shines on the remote sensor, the remote operation may be unstable.

• When there is an obstacle between the unit and the transmitter, the remote control transmitter may not operate.

RECEPTION OF INTERFERENCE

The most common types of television interference are as follows.

IGNITION

Black spots and horizontal streaks may appear, the picture may flutter or drift. This is usually caused by interference from car ignition system, neon lamps, electric drills or other electrical appliances.

IGNITION

GHOSTING

Ghosting is caused by the TV signal following two paths. One is the direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or similar obstruction. Changing the direction and/or position of the aerial may improve reception.

GHOSTING

SNOW

If your TV is located on the fringe area of a TV station, where the signal is weak, your picture may be affected by the appearance of small dots (SNOW). It may be necessary to install a stronger aerial to improve the picture.

SNOW

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE

This kind of interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks and in some cases loss of contrast in the picture.

TELETEXT

Most broadcasting stations offer a Teletext service in addition to their standard TV program.

Teletext offers news, weather forecast, winning Lotto numbers, TV listings and other interesting news.

The text is received page by page, as soon as you select the broadcasting station. A single page can be displayed on the screen. The pages are numbered and broadcasted one by one. Therefore you'll have to wait a certain time until the selected page is displayed on the screen. The page will be displayed as soon as it is broadcast.

Certain pages can be displayed more easily by pressing one of the FOUR COLOURED TELETEXT buttons.

Basic operation

1

Select the broadcasting station, whose text you want to read. In order to do so, select the station's channel with the remote handset.

2

Push TEXT/MIX/TV button.

The first push on the TEXT/MIX/TV button switches the Teletext on.

The second push on TEXT/MIX/TV displays the TV program and the Teletext together (MIX).

The third push on the TEXT/MIX/TV button switches the Teletext off and returns the screen back to the TV program.

The first operation of the teletext normally opens the page 100 with the table of contents.
