During playback, the correct speed will automatically  
be selected. For more information, please read the  
section 'Selecting the recording speed (SP or LP)' in  
the chapter 'Manual recording'.  
You can use this TV-Video Combi to playback record-  
ed VHS video cassettes. You can operate the TV-  
Video Combi using the remote control or the buttons  
on the set.  
Your TV-Video Combi can only record and play stan-  
dard VHS cassettes.

sette is inserted automatically.

Cassettes that have been recorded in the NTSC  
standard (for example, American cassettes) can

best possible playback quality. For old and often-used  
video cassettes, this system reduces interference.  
For new or high quality cassettes, it emphasises the

Picture/ sound quality is poor  
When playing rental videos or older, poorer quality  
cassettes, it may not be possible to completely filter  
out picture and sound interference. This is not a fault  
in your machine. Read the section 'Manual tracking'.  
The following information is displayed on the  
screen: e.g.: 0:02:45 shows the counter in hours,  
minutes and seconds.  
SP/LP: will show the recorded speed of your  
cassette  
'REM 0:06': will show the actual amount of play-  
ing/recording time left on the tape in hours and

General information  
Recording without automatic

Use 'Manual Recording' to make a spontaneous  
recording (for example, a programme currently being  
shown).  
If you want to start and stop a recording manually, read  
the section 'Recording without automatic switch-off'.  
If you want to start a recording manually but have it  
stopped automatically, read the section  
'Recording with automatic switch-off'. (e.g. not to  
record to the end of the tape)  
Read the section 'Automatic recording from a satel-  
lite receiver', if you want a recording to be controlled  
automatically by a satellite receiver.

'LP': LongPlay (half recording speed, double recording time).  
6 hours can be recorded on a 3-hour cassette (E180) with a  
somewhat reduced picture quality.  
'AUTO': AUTOmatic Long Play. If there is not enough space  
on the tape to record a programmed recording in standard  
speed, the recording is automatically done in 'LP' (Longplay).  
Otherwise, the recording speed will be 'SP' (Standardplay).  
Preventing accidental erasing  
All cassettes (except rental  
and pre-recorded cassettes)  
have a security tab on the  
back of the cassette.  
To prevent recording over  
important recordings (eras-  
ing), you can remove this  
security tab.  
If you later decide to record on a protected cassette,  
simply cover the hole with adhesive tape or slide the  
tab to the right.  
Automatic controlled recording from  
a satellite receiver (RECORD LINK)  
Lining up recordings (assemble cut)  
This function automatically starts recording on the  
switched-off TV-Video Combi when a video signal is  
recognised through the connected scart cable. If your  
satellite receiver has a programming function, the record-  
ing will start automatically (as long as the satellite receiv-  
er is switched on).  
When you add a further recording to a cassette, which  
already has a recording on it, a short blank (flicker)  
can appear between the old and the new recording or  
the picture itself can flicker. To help reduce these from  
occurring, proceed as follows:  
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 (play-  
back).

General information  
'VIDEO Plus+®' system  
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  
*VPS or PDC on or off  
Thanks to this simplifed programming system,  
you no longer need to tediously enter the date,  
programme number, start and end time. All the  
information needed for programming is con-  
tained in the PlusCode number. You can find this  
PlusCode number in most TV listing magazines  
written next to the concerned programme.  
1.Press  
on the remote control.  
SV/V+  
This information is saved in a TIMER block.  
2.Enter the entire PlusCode number. This num-  
ber is up to 9 digits long and can be found  
next to the start time of the TV programme in  
your TV listing magazine. [e.g:1-234-5 or 1

What is 'VPS/PDC'?  
'VPS' (Video Programming System)/ 'PDC'  
(Programme Delivery Control) are used to con-  
trol the start and duration of TV channel record-  
ings. If a TV programme starts earlier or ends  
later than scheduled, the TV-Video Combi will  
turn on and off at the correct time.  
What do I need to know about 'VPS/PDC'?  
Usually the VPS or PDC time is the same as  
the start time. But if your TV guide shows a  
VPS or PDC time which is different from the  
programme’s scheduled start time, e.g. 20.10  
(VPS/PDC 20.14), you must enter the VPS/PDC  
time exact to the minute. If you want a start time  
different from the VPS/PDC time, you must  
switch VPS/PDC off.
