MainsThe type plate is located on the bottom of the set.

1Check whether the mains voltage as shown on the type plate corresponds to your local mains voltage. If it does not, consult your dealer or service organisation.

2Make sure all connections have been made before connecting the DVD recorder system to the mains supply.

3Connect the mains cable to the wall socket.

When the set is switched to standby, it is still consuming some power. To disconnect the set from the mains completely, remove the mains plug from the wall socket.

To avoid overheating of the set a safety circuit has been built in. The set will turn down the volume or switch off sound completely if it becomes too hot. If this happens, wait until the set has cooled down.

When you connect the DVD recorder system to the mains supply for the first time, you need to perform some basic settings. See “Initial installation”.
