Tuner mode

You can also use your video recorder as a TV receiver (tuner).

1 Hold the STOP h button, until + appears in the display.

2 Select the required programme number with the P r or

P q button or with the 0-9 buttons.

3 Switch the video recorder to standby by pressing the

STANDBY m button when you no longer want to watch

television.

Sound track selection

You can select the required sound track during tuner-mode,

stop or playback. This is of particular interest when the audio

transmissions are multilingual.

1 Press the SELECT button. The current setting will appear

in the display.

2 By pressing the SELECT button several times you can

select from the four possibilities displayed (’STEREO’,

’RIGHT’, ’LEFT’, ’MONO’).

Note: During playback you can select a fifth possibility: the

’MIXED’ mode. In this mode you can playback the mono

sound of the normal (linear) audio track together with the

sound of the stereo audio track. This can be used for

playing back a recording dubbed on another video recorder.

* If there is no stereo sound recorded on the cassette, the

video recorder automatically switches over to mono sound.

Externally controlled recording

Do you have another device, e.g. a satellite receiver, which

can control other equipment by a ’programming’ function? You

can connect this device to the video recorder with a scart

cable, at socket EXT.2 .

1 Insert a cassette. Switch to standby with the STANDBY m

button.

2 Hold the MONITOR button until ’REC.P’ appears in the

display.

3 If you want to interrupt this function before the recording

has actually started, hold the MONITOR button until

’REC.P’ disappears from the video recorder display.

4 If you want to interrupt this function while a recording is

being made, press the STANDBY m button.

Remote control of TV sets

Your remote control can operate with a number of remote

control codes for TV sets of different makes. Using the

appropriate code number and the TV button set, you can

activate the following functions:

TV volume plus

TV volume minus

TV y

Switch off sound

TV m

Switch off

TV q

Up/Plus, programme number

TV r

Down/Minus, programme number

1 Hold down the TV m button and enter the appropriate

remote control code with the digit buttons 0-9 .

You will find a list of all available remote control codes on

the last page of this manual.

Note: If the selected code does not operate with your TV

set, or if the TV make is not contained in the list, you can try

out the codes one after the other.
