Safety instructions
video recorder
Setting up the
◆ Please read this instruction book before you use your video recorder.
◆ This video recorder can record and play cassettes with the VHS-
standard mark .
• Do not take the cover off this video recorder. If something goes wrong, don’t try and fix it
yourself. Contact SEG after-sales service for advice.
• When the video recorder is plugged into the power supply there are some parts that are
always working. To switch off the video recorder completely you must unplug it from the
power supply.
• This video recorder is designed to run from the UK standard mains supply of 230 volts, 50
Hertz.
• Make sure air can flow freely through the ventilation slots on the video recorder.
• Don’t put objects containing liquid on the video recorder. If liquid spills into the video
recorder, unplug it immediately and contact SEG after-sales service for advice.
• Pull the mains plug out of the wall socket and disconnect the aerial lead during
thunderstorms. (The clock and timer settings will be lost after about one minute.)
• Do not let anyone push objects into holes and ventilation slots.
Important points
• Condensation can damage your video recorder. If the video recorder is cold when you unpack it,
leave it for several hours to become room temperature. Do not use the video recorder
immediately after moving from a cold room to a hot room or a hot room to a cold room. Do not
use the video recorder in very damp conditions.
• Most televisions switch automatically to the AV (audio video) channel when a video cassette is
played. If your television does not do this automatically you will have to turn it to ‘EXT’, ‘0’, ‘AV’
or ‘scart’.
• Under normal circumstances keep your video recorder plugged into the mains all the time,
otherwise the aerial connection to your television will be interrupted and the television picture
will be poor.
• If there is a power cut, the video recorder will keep the time and record timer set for up to one
minute. After that, the video recorder will tell you to start the automatic installation procedure
again, as described on page 13. You will also have to re-set the timer programmes.
• Throw away old remote control batteries at a battery disposal point.
• Please recycle your video recorder’s packaging. When your video recorder is worn out, take it to
your local recycling point.
• The video recorder switches on automatically and the green front-panel display gets brighter
when you put a cassette in or press a control button.

The mains plug
Setting up the
Please remove the fuse from the old moulded plug and throw it away to prevent
anyone from plugging it into the mains and getting an electric shock.
We have fitted this video recorder with a moulded 13-amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of
plug:
• prise open the fuse cover on the connecting-pin face of the plug with a small screwdriver and lift
out the fuse cover with the fuse;
• put a new BS1362, 3-amp, ASTA or BSI-approved fuse in the cover; and
• replace the fuse cover and fuse.
Do not use this kind of plug without the fuse cover fitted.
If your moulded plug is not suitable for your mains supply socket, buy an adapter to match the
moulded plug to your supply socket. Or cut the moulded plug off and fit an appropriate plug in its
place. The plug you fit or the distribution board feeding your mains supply socket must have a fuse
rated at no more than 5 amps.
Cleaning your video recorder
Unplug the video recorder and use only a lightly dampened soft cloth . Do not use chemical solvents
or strong detergents as these may damage the cabinet finish.
• By law, you may need to get the permission of the copyright owner before you record anything.
• This video recorder is not designed for use in tropical climates.
• This video recorder is designed for use only in the UK and cannot be modified.

aerial socket. Plug the other end of the cable into the ANT OUT socket on the back of the
video recorder.
3 Plug the moulded mains plug on the end of the mains cable into the mains socket on your
wall and switch on the power (if there is a power switch).
4 Switch your television on and select the programme number that you have chosen for the
video channel (see the instruction book for your television).
5 Press the POWER button once on the video recorder (the display
will get brighter).
6 Tune the television in the UHF waveband until a picture like the
one below appears, and memorise it under the video

If you cannot get a clear picture, please read ‘What to do if you get picture interference’ on
page 12.
◆ If you don’t see the picture in step 6, put a pre-recorded video cassette in the video recorder at
step 6 and try again. Pre-recorded video cassettes that you buy or hire automatically play when
you put them into the video recorder, so the picture that appears on your television will be the
picture from the video cassette. We have described how to load a video cassette on page 22.

1 Unplug the aerial cable from the back of your television and plug it into the ANT IN
socket on the back of your video recorder.
2 Plug one end of the aerial cable provided into the aerial socket on your television.
The cable only fits one way round, so look at the ends to see which one matches the
television aerial socket. Plug the other end of the cable into the ANT OUT socket on
the back of the video recorder.
3
Plug the scart cable into the lower scart socket marked EURO AV on the back of your
video recorder. If your television has more than one scart socket it is best to connect
your video recorder to the one that has automatic video switching (please see ‘In step
three’ below).
4 Plug the moulded mains plug on the end of the mains cable into the mains socket on
your wall and switch on the power (if there is a power switch).
5 Switch your video recorder off by pressing the POWER button again.
In step three, if you are not sure which scart socket to use you will have to:
• read your television instructions; or
• find out which scart socket lets you see a picture from the video recorder as soon as
you play a video cassette or press the remote control MENU button.
How to play a video cassette is described on page 22.
Next you will have to tune in the television stations as described under ‘Auto-Search’ on page 13.
◆ In step 6 under ‘For televisions without a scart socket’ the
number after the flashing letters ‘RF’ on the video recorder display is
telling you which broadcast channel number the video recorder is using. Some televisions
let you use this information to tune in the video recorder. ‘What to do if you get picture
interference’ on page 12 tells you more about broadcast channel numbers.

Automatic video channel selection
If the video recorder is connected to the television with a scart cable you will normally see the
video recorder picture when you play a video cassette. You will also see the video recorder
picture when you select one of the on-screen menus (see ‘Control menus’ on page 7).
You might not see the video recorder picture if your television does not have automatic video
channel selection. To find out if you have automatic video channel selection, keep pressing the
TV/VCR button and see if the picture changes between the television picture and the video
recorder picture. When a small ‘VCR’ symbol shows on the front of the video recorder, the
television should be showing the video recorder picture.
If you don’t have automatic video channel selection, select the video channel with your
television remote control.

Through the aerial cable
You can also connect extra equipment between the external aerial cable and your video recorder.
Set the equipment to produce a picture you will recognise (please read the equipment’s instruction
book to find out how to do this). Then tune one of the video recorder’s programme numbers to the
new equipment. ‘Manual channel search’ on page 14 tells you how to do this. Please also read
‘What to do if you get picture interference’ on page 12.
Through scart cables
If you have not already used the scart socket to connect to your television, you can connect
extra equipment such as a satellite receiver to the EURO AV scart socket. Some satellite and
digital television ‘set-top boxes’ have scart sockets labelled especially for your video recorder
and television. Please read the user instructions for your ‘set-top box’ for details. See
‘Recording from other equipment’ on page 30.
Through the front AV input
You can connect a camcorder, video game and so on to
the front audio and video (AV) input sockets if you have a
connecting cable ending in RCA phono plugs. Select and
monitor the front AV input by pressing the AV button until
‘F. AV’ appears on the screen. Please read the instructions
for the equipment and see ‘Recording from other
equipment’ on page 30.
The stand-by button
Power saving
When the video recorder is on stand-by, it is nearly all switched off,
uses little power and is ready to make timed recordings. The stand-by
button switches the video recorder on with one press and back to stand-
by with another press. The front-panel display of the video recorder gets
dimmer when the video recorder is on stand-by.
When you load a video cassette tape or press a control button, stand-by
is cancelled and the video recorder switches on.
Emergency exit
If you get into difficulties or you are not sure you are pressing the right
buttons, just press the stand-by button and start again. No matter which
buttons you press, you cannot damage your video recorder.

What to do if you get picture interference
Each television programme uses a certain broadcast channel in the broadcast band. An electronic
part called the ‘modulator’ inside your video recorder sends a signal to the aerial input of your
television just like the signals sent by the television transmitters. So, the modulator uses part of
the broadcasting band and we might talk about the ‘modulator channel’.
Sometimes the modulator channel will already be used by another television station in your
reception area. In this case the picture quality on your television will be poor when the television
is receiving one or more broadcasts and the video recorder is switched on. In severe cases of
interference you may not even recognise the video recorder picture. Here is what to do about it.
After ‘Getting started - For televisions without a scart socket’ on page 8...
• Switch your television on and select the programme number you have chosen for the video
channel (see the instruction book for your television).
• Press the POWER button on the video recorder to switch it on. In the video
recorder’s panel display, you should see ‘RF’ (flashing) followed by the
modulator channel number. If this does not appear in the display, follow ‘After auto-search’
below.
• Change the modulator channel number by pressing the number buttons 0 to 9 on the remote
control. You must choose a number from 21 to 69. The new modulator channel number will
show on the display.
• Go back to step 6 of ‘For televisions without a scart socket’ on page 8 and try again.
After ‘Auto-search’ on page 13...
•
Press and hold the OK button on the remote control for at least five seconds
until ‘RF’ flashes in the video recorder display. The number next to ‘RF’ is
the modulator channel number.
• Change the modulator channel number by pressing the number buttons 0 to 9 on the remote
control. You must choose a number from 21 to 69. The new modulator channel number will
show on the display.
• Tune the television in the UHF waveband until a picture like the one below appears, and
memorise it under the video programme number. (Please read the instruction book for
your television to see how to do this.)
• Press the POWER button on the video recorder or the button
on the remote control.
• Press the POWER button on the video recorder or the button
on the remote control again, to turn the video recorder back on.
• Check all the programme numbers that are tuned to the broadcast
stations, your video recorder and any other equipment to check
there is no picture interference.
There is another way of changing the modulator channel, which is described in Appendix 1 on
page 37.
