Direct recording with TV sets without "Easy Link" function

If you wish to record a TV programme you are watching, press the button gon the video recorder when the VCR is switched-off.

The video recorder "calls up" the current programme position number from the TV set via the Scart cable and starts recording.

Notes:

*In order for "Direct Record" to function, it must be switched to "on" as described in Chapter 8 in the section entitled "Personal preferences" .

*The video recorder must be connected via a Scart cable to an appropriate TV set.

*Not all external units (e.g. certain satellite receivers, Pay-TV decoders) are appropriate for the "Direct recording" function.

*Select another programme number on the TV set not until "READY" appears in the video recorder's display.

Erase protection

So that you don't accidentally delete an important recording, you can remove the special tab (erase protection) on the front of the cassette with a screwdriver or slide it to the left.

Later, if you no longer want the erase protection, you can seal the gap once more with adhesive tape or slide the tab to the right.

Longplay function

You can reduce the recording speed by half. This makes it possible to record, for example, 8 hours instead of 4 hours with an "E240" cassette.

!To do this, you must select "LP" for the tape speed in paragraph "Personal preferences" in chapter 8. The video recorder's display indicates "LP".

"When starting playback, the video recorder will automatically select the correct tape speed.

Notes:

*You will get the best picture and sound quality if you record with standard speed ("SP").

*During picture search, still picture, super slow motion and slow motion, playback is not in colour.

HiFi stereo reception

This video recorder can record and play back stereo broadcasts. Playback then is in HiFi quality.
