PALSONIC CORPORATION PTY LTD 1 JOYNTON AVENUE WATERLOO NSW 2017 AUSTRALIA TEL:(02)9313 7111 FAX:(02)9313 7555 www. palsonic. com. au PALSONIC CUSTOMER SERVICE TELEPHONE AUSTRALIA:1300 657 888 This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet the highest international standards, but, like any electrical apparatus which is operated at mains voltage, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured. This is particularly important with audio and TV equipment. [. . . ] You may want to test if the station is sending subtitles. If you enter "801" on the keypad by pressing "8" then "0" then "1" in turn; Teletext will search for that page. The number 801 is entered in the black &white section at the top of the screen and echoed in the black & red number at the bottom. The other colours are the colour memories. Push the (PR-) button to remove the colours. * If you press the buttons and the number ends up wrong, do not worry. Just press "8" until it appears as the first number and try again. The trick to entering numbers is to push the button slowly. There is no need to push them hard; just slowly. * If the station is not sending Teletext, the numbers will return to 100. This takes a little while (20 seconds, say). If you get sick of waiting, press button (14) and go back to TV. * If the station is sending subtitles, the number "801" will remain and subtitles will appear on the screen eventually. It may take a minute or so, depending on how many pages are being sent, This varies with each station. * If you press the Teletext button (15) again, you may see a number alongside the original black & white number that you entered, counting up one at a time. This means that Teletext is trying to match your page number, If the three numbers are all the same, then it means that it has found the subtitle page (801) but that no subtitles are available. * If the numbers remain unchanged for a while, forget it. Each station has its own way of presenting Teletext and this is sometimes confusing. If it dose not happen in a minute or so, it will never happen. This does not mean that the set is faulty; just that the station is not sending a Teletext signal. If the set is working correctly, it shows a black screen with the numbers on it. What happens next depends on the TV station. [. . . ] It is easy to record one channel and watch another, or switch between without disturbing the VCR recording. NOTE: * You can use either RF or Audio/Video input from the VCR, but the quality of picture and sound is better using the Audio/Video sockets. * If the VCR has Mono sound, connect it to the L/Mono input socket. The R/Stereo cable is optional for Stereo and need not be used. 2. [. . . ]
