Problem-solving guide

The video has the time or  - -.- - on the display

If while you are setting up the video, the timer or - -.- - is in the display, the video is switched off or has
already gone through the autoset procedure (OK has already been pressed). In this case, please turn to page 6
and carry out step 2 until you see the manual tuning screen.

A blue screen is displayed when you switch the video on

If a blue screen appears when you switch the video on, the AV button has been pressed. Press AV on the
remote control until P-_ _ appears on the display of the video, or until a TV picture is displayed.

The TV/VCR button on the video remote control will not work

This button will only work if the TV has the appropriate internal switch and a scart lead is connecting the TV
and video.

* TV/VCR button is not available for this set

The television will not change channel when the video is turned on

If the television will not change channel while the video is on, check whether a scart lead has been connected.
(See page 3 option 2)

If a scart lead has been connected, you need to press the TV/VCR button on the video remote control. When
the small VCR symbol appears on the display, you can only change channel by using  the video remote control.

If the TV/VCR button on the video remote control does not work, read the instruction book for the TV to find out
about an audio video button.

* TV/VCR button is not available for this set

The video has a number other than 36 when RF appears

A number other than 36 might be displayed on the video when RF is flashing in the display. This means that
the number has been adjusted in the past.

The TV needs to be tuned in to get the blue auto set or auto search screen. (Refer
to page 6)
