VCR and Satellite Receiver installation
Your new TV is supplied with programme position 0 set to receive an RF signal from your VCR, although a Scart connection is
preferable if the VCR is so equipped.
However, if for some reason your VCR is tuned to a different RF channel then you will not receive any picture or sound from your VCR on
programme position 0 of the TV. It will be necessary to either adjust the RF channel of your VCR (some VCRs allow adjustment of their
RF channel via their remote control unit) or to adjust the tuning of the TVs programme position 0 or both until it receives the RF output
channel of your VCR.
It is intended that this advice is used in conjunction with the instruction books for your ancillary equipment.
Use the AV Scart terminal for a VCR.
To tune your TV to the VCR
Switch on the VCR, insert and play a
pre-- recorded tape with known content.
Press the F button.

Notes :
` If picture patterning occurs on programme position 0 it
may be necessary to adjust the RF output channel of the
VCR, refer to the VCR instruction book.
If a Satellite Receiver and a VCR are going to be used with
RF cable connections it is important to avoid both units
being set on the same channel.
Refer to the Satellite Receiver and VCR instruction books
for precise tuning information.
