Additional information when connecting equipment

Connecting a VCR

To record and playback digital programmes you must connect your VCR to the socket using a scart lead (the VCR relies on the TV to convert digital programmes to signals suitable for recording, which are then output from the TV via the scart socket).

To record analogue programmes on the VCR, connect your external aerial to the upper socket marked on the TV, then connect a lead from the RF input of the VCR to the lower aerial socket marked on the TV.

Note: If you have set the Auto 16:9 feature to ‘On’ (see page 14), any digital recording made from the socket will not detect the 16:9 mode, and during playback the picture will be displayed in the mode you previously selected from the ‘Format’ options.

Connecting headphones

Plug in your headphones to the socket of the concealed panel on the side of the TV.

Connecting to external audio equipment

Plug in your hi-fi equipment to the sockets on the rear of the TV if you wish to amplify the audio output from the TV. The output level from the sockets can be varied by adjusting the volume of the headphones (refer to the ‘Adjusting the sound’ section of this manual).

For mono equipment

Connect the phono plug of your equipment to the L/G/S/I socket of the concealed panel on the side of the TV, then select the 2 input signal using the instructions on this page. Finally, refer to the ‘Adjusting the sound’ section of this manual and select ‘A’ on the sound menu screen.
