In some cases, interference (lines or patterning) or a very poor picture may appear on the TV when the DVD Recorder is connected. If this happens, follow the steps below to change the video playback channel (RF output channel) to remove the interference.

1Switch [DVD, TV] (15) to “DVD”.
2Press [FUNCTIONS] (11) for more than 5 seconds.
The RF output channel number is displayed on the unit display.
3Press the numeric buttons (4), [3, 4] (10) or

[W, X, CH] (18) to select a channel number, which differs by 2 or 3 from the present channel number. (For example, if the original channel number was 28, enter 31.)

Video Plus+ Codes for Satellite

Receivers/Cable TV

For the United Kingdom:

This unit is not designed to control (switch on or change channel) your satellite receiver or Cable TV box, however, it can be taught to recognise Video Plus+ Codes for Satellite stations. The Satellite receiver or Cable TV box must be switched on and the correct station selected. Some receivers have their own timer facility for this purpose. Please refer to your Satellite Receiver/Cable TV box instructions for use of such timer facilities.

For your unit to recognise the Video Plus+ Codes for each satellite station, you must teach your unit which channel or AV input to record from for the first time. Otherwise when setting a VIDEO Plus+ recording, the [ss] symbol will appear in the channel position indicating that the unit does not know which channel position to set. Once you have set the channel/AV input once the unit will remember it whenever you use a Video Plus+ Code for the station again.

Preparation

Turn on the television.

Switch [DVD, TV] (15) to “TV”.

1Turn on the TV and the unit. Select video playback channel on the TV.
2Press [VIDEO Plus+] (2).

4Press [ENTER] (10). [ss] will appear instead of a channel number/AV input.

5Use [3, 4, 2, 1] (10) to select the channel or AV input that is to be used for recording from the satellite channel.

6Press [ENTER] (10) to memorise the setting. The unit will now automatically set the programme position or AV input correctly when a VIDEO Plus+ recording is set for this satellite station in the future.
