|
| This appliance is designed and manufactured with high quality materials and components which |

If you own the appliance, you must leave it at the appropriate local collection point or hand it back to your |

Remote control
The remote control doesn’t work
•Point the remote control at the front of your DVD recorder, not at your TV set.
•The operating range of the remote control is 6 to 8 metres. It gradually decreases as the batteries wear down.This is a good indicator of the state of the batteries.
•Make sure no objects (or animals) are in the path of the infrared beam between the remote control and your DVD recorder.They may block the beam and thereby cause a malfunction of your DVD recorder.
•The recorder is in copy mode. COPYING appears on the display.
•Some DVD players made by the Thomson group react to the same remote control codes. To avoid this inconvenience you can modify your DVD recorder's setting by setting it to the A or B password (press the PLAY/PAUSE and AV buttons on the front at the same time for a few seconds).
The remote control and the DVD recorder don’t work anymore: everything seems blocked
•Unplug your DVD recorder from the mains for a few moments and plug it back in.
Image problems
You don’t see any picture
•Turn on your TV set and your DVD recorder.
•On your TV set, select the socket which receives the signals from your DVD recorder (AV1,TV1,AUX1, etc., depending on the make, if connected.
•Make sure that all the connectors are correctly pushed into the various sockets.
•In STOP mode, press several times the ZOOM/VIDEO OUT button on the remote control in order to switch the video signal to the correct format accordingly to the socket used for TV connection (eg. RGB for SCART OUT).
AV1 (SCART OUT) | = RGB |
HDMI | = 576, 720, 1080, auto |
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT = 1H YUV (Also see page 5 of the manual)
The colours aren’t natural
•Check that the scart cables are correctly pushed into the sockets of the various devices.
The image format doesn’t match the screen format of your TV set
