Special functions on your TV-VIDEO Combi
If a TV channel which transmits TXT/PDC is stored under programme number
P01’, time and date will automatically be taken from the TXT/PDC information.
Crystal Clear video has become the synonym for outstanding picture quality
combining Philips’ very latest technologies: Natural Colour, Studio Tracking
System, Digital Studio Picture Control and laser-cut video heads.
Philips has developed a system which produces the best possible playback
quality. It reduces disturbance on old, worn video cassettes, and emphasises
the detail on very good quality cassettes.
This function allows you to save the playback settings that suit you best. Select
your own personal settings for the type of film you are currently watching.
This function allows you to save the sound settings that suit you best. Select
your own personal settings for the type of film you are currently watching.
When you have plugged your TV-VIDEO Combi into the mains, you will be
welcomed with an OSD picture. All you have to do is follow the instructions in
the "intelligent help line" for the next step. Enjoy the Automatic TV channel
search/save function and the automatic time adjustment.

feature gives the acoustic impression of a very wide stereo effect even if the
speakers are located relatively close together.
Simple programming system for TV-VIDEO Combis. Makes programming as easy
as making a telephone call. Simply enter the programme code which you will
find in your listings magazine.
The precision tape drive from Philips with a rewind time of 100 seconds (E180)

Important for the United Kingdom
This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 Amp
plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:
a Remove fuse cover and fuse.
b Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5A, A.S.T.A. or
BSI approved type.
c Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should
be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of
5A. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution
board should not be greater than 5A.
DNote: * The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a
possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13A
socket elsewhere.
How to connect a plug:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with
the following code:
BLUE - ’NEUTRAL’ (’N’)
BROWN - ’LIVE’ (’L’)
d The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which
is marked with the letter ’N’ or coloured BLACK.
e The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal
which is marked with the letter ’L’ or coloured RED.
f Do not connect either wires to the earth terminal in the
plug which is marked with the letter ’E’ or by the safety
earth symbol \or coloured green or green-and-yellow.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord
grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not imply over the
two wires.

* the programme number for the TV channel you want to
record;
* the start and stop time of the recording;
* VPS/PDC on or off
* the recording speed (SP/LP).

advance.
’VPS’ (Video Programming System) and
’PDC’ (Programme Delivery Control)
With ’VPS’ and ’PDC’, the TV station controls the start time and
the length of the recording. This means that the TV-VIDEO
Combi switches itself on and off at the right time even if a TV
programme you want to record begins earlier or finishes later
than expected.
If you want to programme a time that is different from the VPS
or PDC time, you must switch off VPS or PDC.
