You can switch on the video recorder with the STANDBY/ON m button, the number buttons 0-9or by putting in a cassette.

If the video recorder is not used for several minutes, it switches itself off automatically. This function can be deactivated (e.g. if you want to use the video recorder as a TV receiver). For more information, please read the section 'Automatic switch-off' in chapter 'Additional functions'.

If you have switched the video recorder off with STANDBY/ON m , the time will show in the display, e.g. '18:00'.

If the clock has not been set, '--:--' will appear.

When the video recorder is switched off and the time isn't shown in the video recorder display, the clock display may be switched off. You will find more information in the chapter 'Additional functions' section 'Switch off the clock display'.

The video recorder should always be connected to the mains so as not to affect the use of the TV or programmed recordings.

Your video recorder uses less than 4W (with clock display switched off).

Channel information remains saved for up to 1 year, the time and timer information is saved for up to 3 hours.

The video recorder and the remote control have the option of an 'Emergency exit'. You can use the STANDBY/ON m button to interrupt any function or step during use.

You can operate your device without worry. There is no risk whatsoever of damaging the video recorder by performing user steps incorrectly.
