Preparing the remote control for operation

The remote control and its batteries are packed separately in the original DVD recorder packaging. You must install the batteries in the remote control before use - described in the following section.

1Take the remote control and the enclosed batteries (2 batteries).

2Open the battery compartment, insert the batteries as shown and then close the battery compartment.

The remote control is now ready to use.

Its range is approximately 5 to 10 meters.

'Aim' correctly

 

In the following sections, you will need the remote control for the first time.

Tip

Aim the remote control at the DVD recorder and not at the TV set.

ENGLISH

Connecting your DVD recorder to the TV set

The necessary cable connections must be made before you can record or playback TV programmes using your DVD recorder.

Connect the DVD recorder directly to your TV set. If there is a video recorder in between the picture quality may be poor.

We recommend that you use a scart cable to connect your TV set and DVD recorder.

What is a scart cable?

 

The scart or Euro AV cable serves as the universal connector for picture,

 

sound and control signals. With this type of connection, there is practically no

?

loss of quality in picture or sound transmission.
