14” TV-Video  Combi

14PV217

Product Highlights

• Plug & Play
Installing a Combi has never been easier! No need of the user manual. Just
let the Combi guide you through the installation steps.

• One Touch Record (OTR)
Start a recording with the touch of a single button. Each further touch of the
record button adds 30 minutes of recording time. The actual end time will
be automatically calculated by the set and displayed.

• SMART Clock
For automatic download of the current Time & Date. No more hassle with
the clock setting after long power failure or at the daylight savings time
switch over.

• Wake-up and Sleep Timer
Automatically turns the Combi off at a preset time of up to 180 minutes
from the time the feature is activated. Sleep timer settings are programmed
in 15-minute increments.

• Tele Text/Fast Text
with Favourite Page Memory
For even faster access to your favourite information, assign one „favourite
page“ per channel.

• Auto Volume  Leveller
Minimises sudden changes in TV volume typically happening when
commercials are broadcasted or when pre-sets are being changed.

• Full Auto Feature Package
Incorporated into every PHILIPS Combi and includes:
• Automatic Power On when a tape is inserted.
• Automatic Digital Studio Tracking, assuring proper movements of video

and audio heads for perfect recordings and viewing every time.

• Auto Play, inserting pre-recorded tapes will activate the Play mode.
• Auto Rewind as soon as the tape reaches the end.
• Auto Eject after record at the end of the tape, so tapes are not 

inadvertently left in the Combi.

• Crystal Clear Video
With Crystal Clear Video, Philips has created the perfect combination of  
technologies to guarantee the best possible picture restitution:
• Digital Studio Picture Control: It optimises the picture rendition regardless

of the quality of tape used.

• Laser Cut Video Heads: They have a better profile for a superior 

head/tape contact: Lesser wear guarantees longer life and higher 
performance quality.

• Studio Tracking System: It improves the tracking accuracy and reduces the 

cross-talk noise.

• Natural Colour: It cleans the colour from any kind of noise and corrects 

the spill.
