Optimizing the modulator
If the TV set and the video recorder are only connected with an aerial cable - rather than with an additional scart cable - it may happen that in certain reception locations the modulator frequency of the video recorder is occupied by a TV channel. As soon as the video recorder is switched on, the reception quality of the TV picture deteriorates.The following steps will show you how to overcome this problem.

The purpose of this electronic assembly inside your |
|
video recorder is to pass on the picture and sound |
|
information read in from the video tape via an aerial |

|
frequency determines the frequency range in which | TIP |
these signals are transmitted. |

2Press simultaneously the EJECT button Jon the front of the video recorder and the button PROGRAMME - until the display shows the modulator frequency (e.g. “M583” or “CH35” ).
3The display shows “M ON”. The video recorder will now transmit a test image on this frequency
4Use =P- or ;P+ to select the option “OPTIMIZE” and enter a new frequency
with the number buttons
Which modulator frequency should I enter?
