- Automatic switching when VCR is in “PLAY” mode, as well as
auto selection of 4/3 or 16/9 format if the VCR provides this
feature.

come from the antenna or any other input.
There are two possibilities:
■
Via the antenna jack: In this case you must tune the VCR chan-
nel.
Select the test pattern screen (check your VCR User’s Manual to
see how to do this) and tune the channel. Use of the Semi tuning
mode is advisable (see “Presetting” on page 11).
Drawbacks:
- Lower picture and sound quality during playback.
- Cannot play back in stereo.
■
Via Euroconnector: Advantages:
- Better picture and sound quality.

If you have an S-VHS video cassette recorder, connect it to the
left Euro connector. For viewing, make sure you have the
Connections menu option enabled (see “Externals Menu” on page
10).
This TV set has a number of connectors providing optimum
connection of the TV set to a wide range of peripherals. Keep in
mind that the use of the appropriate connecting cable is essential for
good results.
■
Stereo Headphone Jack The Sound menu provides a specific
set of sound control options (Volume, Balance, Bass, Treble) that
are available only when the TV set detects that headphones are
actually plugged into the set.
When the set receives a Dual language broadcast another option
(mode) will appear. This allows you to select which language you
want to hear by changing between Dual A and Dual B. (see page
10).

sockets. These are as follows :
Yellow : Video Input

one sound channel (mono) is available, plug this into the white
(Audio L) socket.

button is pressed the mode changes as follows.
Press the button to select the mode you require.
Note : Most equipment connected via AV1 or AV2 will automatically
