Thank you for buying a Philips TV-Video combi.
This TV-Video combi is one of the most sophisti-
cated and easy-to-use TV-Video combi on the
market. Please take the time to read this operat-
ing manual before using your TV-Video combi. It
contains important information and notes regard-
ing operation. The TV-Video combi should not
be turned on immediately after transportation
from a cold to a hot area or vice versa, or in con-
ditions of extreme humidity. Wait at least three
hours 
after transporting the device. The TV-
Video combi needs this time in order to become
acclimatised to its new environment (tempera-
ture, air humidity, etc.).

This TV-Video combi is used for the recording
and playback of VHS videocassettes. Cassettes
with the VHS-C label (VHS cassettes for cam-
corders) may only be used with a suitable
adapter.
We hope you enjoy your new TV-Video combi.

Video combi from the power supply and call
