				OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS   
					Thank you for buying a Philips video recorder.   
					This video recorder is one of the most sophisti-   
					cated and easy-to-use video recorders (VCR) on   
					the market. Please take the time to read this   
					operating manual before using your video   
					recorder. It contains important information and   
					notes regarding operation. The video recorder   
					should not be turned on immediately after   
					transportation from a cold to a hot area or vice   
					versa, or in conditions of extreme humidity. Wait   
					at least three hours after transporting the   
					device. The video recorder needs this time in   
					order to become acclimatised to its new environ-   
					ment (temperature, air humidity, etc.).   
					These operating instructions have been   
					printed on non-polluting paper.   
					Deposit old batteries at the appropriate col-   
					lection points.   
					Please make use of the facilities available in   
					your country for disposing of the packaging   
					of the video recorder in a way that helps to   
					protect the environment.   
					This electronic device contains many mate-   
					rials that can be recycled. Please enquire   
					about the possibilities for recycling your old   
					device.

					What is a scart cable?   
					The scart or Euro AV cable serves as the uni-

					signals. With this type of connection, there is   
					practically no loss of quality during the picture   
					or sound transfer.   
					How to connect a plug:   
					The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accor-   
					dance with the following code:   
					BLUE- 'NEUTRAL' ('N')   
					BROWN- 'LIVE' ('L')   
					4.The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal   
					which is marked with the letter 'N' or coloured   
					BLACK.   
					5.The BROWN wire must be connected to the termi-   
					nal which is marked with the letter 'L' or coloured   
					RED.   
					6.Do not connect either wires to the earth terminai in   
					the plug which is marked with the letter 'E' or by   
					the safety earth symbol   
					green-and-yellow.

					Playing cassettes   
					Playing back NTSC cassettes   
					You can use this video recorder to play back   
					recorded VHS videocassettes. You can operate   
					the video recorder using the remote control or   
					the buttons on the front of the video recorder.   
					Your video recorder can only record and play   
					standard VHS cassettes.   
					Cassettes that have been recorded in the NTSC   
					standard (for example, American cassettes) can   
					be played back using this video recorder.   
					However, this only works on PAL-television sets   
					that are suitable for a picture frequency of 60Hz.

					cassette   
					'REM 0:06': will show the actual amount of play-   
					ing/recording time left on the tape in hours and   
					minutes.   
					When you play an NTSC cassette, the video   
					recorder will show 'REM -:--'.   
					DIGITAL STUDIO PICTURE CONTROL   
					Philips has developed a system which produces   
					the best possible playback quality. For old and   
					often-used video cassettes, this system reduces   
					interference. For new or high quality cassettes,   
					it emphasises the details.   
					Picture/ sound quality is poor   
					When playing rental videos or older, poorer   
					quality cassettes, it may not be possible to com-   
					pletely filter out picture and sound interference.   
					This is not a fault in your machine. Read the   
					section 'Manual tracking'.   
					How can I set the counter to '0:00:00'?   
					You can set the counter to '0:00:00' with   
					CLEAR

					When you put a cassette in the video recorder,   
					the counter will automatically reset to '0:00:00'.

					Automatic switch-off of special functions   
					Many functions (e.g. pause, still picture) switch   
					themselves off automatically after a short time   
					in order to protect the cassette and to save   
					energy.   
					The screen shows '-0:01:20'   
					If you rewind a cassette from the tape position   
					'0:00:00', the counter will show for instance,   
					'-0:01:20' (the cassette was rewound to 1   
					minute and 20 seconds before '0:00:00').   
					'-:--' is displayed in the 'REM' counter   
					This counter will automatically recognise the   
					length of the tape. In addition, when you put in   
					a cassette the video recorder must first calcu-   
					late the time played. Therefore, '-:--' appears   
					first and only after the tape has been running   
					for a few seconds, the correct playing time will   
					be shown.   
					Do I need to change the playback speed   
					when playing back LP recordings?   
					During playback, the correct speed will auto-   
					matically be selected. For more information,   
					please read the section 'Selecting the recording   
					speed (SP or LP)' in the chapter 'Manual

				5. Manual recording   
					General information   
					Preventing accidental erasing of   
					cassettes   
					Use 'Manual Recording' to make a sponta-   
					neous recording (for example, a programme cur-   
					rently being shown).   
					All cassettes (except for   
					rental and store cas-   
					settes) have a security   
					tab on the back of the   
					cassette.   
					If you want to start and stop a recording manual-   
					ly, read the section 'Recording without auto-   
					matic switch-off'.   
					To prevent recording   
					over important recordings (erasing), you can   
					remove this security tab.   
					If you later decide to record on a protected cas-   
					sette, simply cover the hole with adhesive tape   
					or slide the tab to the right.   
					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 'Direct record' if you want to   
					record a programme currently being shown.   
					Lining up recordings (assemble cut)

					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.

					'Direct Record'   
					With Direct Record, you can record the right TV   
					channel in seconds even if your video recorder is   
					switched off. If the recording is started manually,   
					the video recorder uses the current TV channel   
					set on the TV. You will find more information on   
					how to switch 'Direct Record' on or off in the next   
					section. Make sure that your video recorder   
					socket (AV1/TV) and the TV are connected by a   
					scart cable.
