Safety Precautions

W arning: To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose

this equipm ent to rain or m oisture.

FCC W arning: Any unauthorized changes or m odifica-

tions to this equipm ent void the user’s authority to oper-

ate it.

This TV/VCR, equipped with a HQ (High Quality) system, is com-

patible with existing VHS (video home system) equipment.

Philips Consum er Electronics Com pany recommends that

you use only video cassette tapes that have been tested and

inspected for use in two, four, six, and eight hour VCRs, and

which are labeled with the

mark. The use of tapes that

have not been inspected for use in two, four, six, and eight hour

VCRs may result in poor picture quality and excessive deposits on

the video heads, which may not be covered by the warranty if

damage occurs.

Note to the Cable TV System Installer: This reminder is

provided to call the Cable TV system installer’s attention to

Article 820-40 of the National Electrical Code, which provides

guidelines for proper grounding – in particular, specifying that the

cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the

building, as close to the point of cable entry as possible.

12 Setting the Clock

There are three ways to set the clock: Manually, with Automatic

PBS Channel Selection, or with Manual PBS Channel Selection.

With m anual clock setting, you tell the TV/VCR the current

time. The TV/VCR then adjusts the time accordingly. With

Automatic or Manual PBS Channel Selection, the TV/VCR gets the

current time from your local PBS station. It updates the time by

referring to your PBS station broadcasts. If you use either Manual

PBS Channel Selection or Automatic PBS Channel Selection, fol-

low the steps on page 19 to have the TV/VCR update the clock

according to your Time Zone.

To set the clock manually, follow the steps on pages 12 -13. To

set the clock using Automatic PBS Channel Selection, follow the

steps on pages 14 - 15. To set the clock using Manual PBS

Channel Selection, follow the steps on pages 16 - 17.

Before you begin, make sure:

+100

● The TV/VCR is hooked up and turned on. Details are on pages

six - eight.

● Channels are programmed. Details are on pages 10 - 11.

● You make each entry within 60 seconds of the previous entry.

36 Setting Up the VCR Plus+ Programming System

First, fill in the boxes on this page. It will only take a few minutes, and you must do it if you want the VCR

Plus+ programming system to work properly.

Since the channel numbers of the stations you receive may not be the same as the station numbers, and

since channel numbers differ from area to area, you must program the TV/VCR with your local channel

information. To fill in the boxes, you will need 1) a cable channel line-up list, if applicable (you can request

one from your cable company), and 2) a chart that lists VCR Plus+ channel numbers, which you can find in

your TV guide or the TV listings of your local newspaper.

stations have VCR Plus+ and Cable/TV channel numbers that are

the same, and other stations have channel numbers that do not

match. Where the channel numbers DO NOT match, you must

tell the TV/VCR the VCR Plus+ and Cable/TV channel numbers

according to the following steps.

Automatic Operation Features 49

The following playback features will always operate:

POWER button to turn on the TV/VCR.)

Autom atic Rewind, Eject, O ff

When a tape is played, fast forwarded, or recorded to its end, the

TV/VCR will rewind the tape, stop, turn itself off, then eject the

tape. If a tape counter memory is set, the TV/VCR will only

rewind the tape to the point at which the tape counter was set to

zero, then stop. The TV/VCR will not turn itself off or eject the

tape.

Mem ory Rewind, Power O ff

When the POWER button is pressed while the TV/VCR is rewind-

ing a tape, REW → POWER OFF will appear on-screen. The

TV/VCR will turn itself off when the tape has finished rewinding.

If a tape counter memory is set, the TV/VCR may only rewind the

tape to the point at which the tape counter was set to zero, then

turn itself off.

Tape Eject

A tape can be ejected with the TV/VCR power on or off (but the

TV/VCR must be plugged in). If a timer recording is programmed,

a tape can not be ejected when the power is off. Turn on the

TV/VCR power, then eject the tape. Be sure to insert a tape and

turn off the TV/VCR power for the timer recording.

Autom atic Tracking Adjustm ent

tracking to give you the best possible picture quality. With some

recordings, however, you may get a better picture using the man-

ual tracking controls (see below).

To return tracking to the position it was in when the TV/VCR was

shipped from the factory, press the CHANNEL Up/Down buttons on

the TV/VCR at the same time.

52 Helpful Hints

If you are having problems with your TV/VCR, check this list of problems and possible solutions before

requesting service. You may be able to solve the problem yourself.

Location

For safe operation and satisfactory performance of your TV/VCR, remember the following:

• Shield it from direct sunlight and keep it away from sources of intense heat.

• Avoid dusty or humid places.

• Avoid places with insufficient ventilation. Do not block the ventilation openings at the top and bottom

of the TV/VCR. Do not place the TV/VCR on a carpet, as this will block the ventilation openings.

• Avoid locations subject to strong vibrations.

• Do not place the TV/VCR near strong magnetic fields.

• Do not move the TV/VCR from a cold place to a hot place, or vice versa.

Tim e Selection

12 AM = Midnight

12 PM = Noon

Electrical Shock and Fire Hazards

• Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.

• Do not pull the power cord when disconnecting the TV/VCR from the AC (alternating current) wall

outlet. Grasp it by the plug.

• If water is spilled on the TV/VCR, unplug the power cord immediately and take the TV/VCR to an

authorized service center.

• Do not put your fingers or objects into the TV/VCR cassette compartment.

• Do not place anything on top of the TV/VCR.

Dew W arning

• Moisture condensation may occur inside the unit when it is moved from a cold place to a warm place,

after heating a cold room, or when the humidity is high. There is no warning that moisture has accu-

mulated in your TV/VCR. But, if you try to play a tape in a TV/VCR in which moisture has accumulat-

ed, the tape and the TV/VCR could be damaged. Therefore, if you try to play a tape and the tape is

destroyed, and you think moisture may have accumulated inside the TV/VCR, keep the TV/VCR power

on (but do not play a tape) for at least two hours. This will allow the TV/VCR to dry.

TV/VCR will not record.

TV/VCR will not perform a tim er recording.

• Make sure the recording start and stop times are set correctly (pages 32 - 39).

• Make sure the TV/VCR power is off.

• Make sure the clock is set (pages 12 - 17).

• Make sure the power has not failed. The TV/VCR may not perform or continue a timer recording if a

power interruption of more than one minute occurs before or during the timer recording, even if the

power comes back on.

• Make sure the TV/VCR is not in Record Defeat mode (page 40).

TV/VCR will not perform a one touch recording.

• Make sure the tape has a record tab (page five).

• Make sure the TV/VCR is not in Record Defeat mode (page 40).

• Plug the power cord into an active AC outlet (page seven).

• Check your hookups (pages six - seven).

• Program channels (page 10).
