Owner's Manual

This VCP is
designed
to
play
back and record cassettes
using
PAL, MESECAM,
and NTSC
(3.58
or
4.43)
colour
systems.
You will
only
be able to load and
eject
video cassettes when
your
VCP is
plugged
into the
mains.
Getting
a better
picture
When a cassette is inserted and
playback
started,
the automatic
tracking
function works to
get
the best
possible picture automatically.
"AUTO TRACKING" will
appear
on the TV screen while it is
doing
this. If the
quality
of the
recording
is
poor, repeatedly press
TRK
(-
or
+)
on the remote control to
manually adjust
the
tracking
until
any
distortions have been removed.
Make sure that
you
have
correctly
installed
your
VCP as described earlier
in
this book.
Press
POWER
to turn on
your
VCP.
Turn on
your
TV.
Insert the video cassette
into
your
VCP. The video
cassette should have the
window side
facing up
and
the arrow
facing away
from
you.
Do not
attempt
to force a cassette
into
your
VCP. There
may already
be a video cassette in
your
VCP.
You
may
have the cassette
upside
down or back to front!
Check
your tape
programme system
before
playing
back a
tape.
Press
PLAY
to start
playing
your tape.
If
you
load a video cassette
which has had its record
protection
tab removed
(e.g
rental movies from video hire
shops) playback
of the cassette
will start
automatically.
If
you
set
SYSTEM
to
AUTO,
your
VCP detects
the colour
system
automatically.
If there are colour
problems
with
very
weak
signals, you
should select the
colour
system manually.
Or
;
If
your tape programme
is NTSC3.58 or
NTSC4.43,
set the
system
to
NTSC3.58
or
NTSC4.43
on
a
multi-system
TV,
or
NTSC-PB
on a
PAL TV
by
pressing
SYSTEM
repeatedly
on the front of
your
VCP.
You can also set the
system
from the On Screen
Display. (see page 7.)
