Reducing picture disturbance (’optimizing
the modulator’)

You may experience picture disturbance if you have not used
a scart cable to connect your video recorder and TV. This is
because another TV station in your reception area may
already be using UHF-channel CH36 or 591MHz.

Make sure that there is no cassette in the video recorder.
On the video recorder, simultaneously hold the

EJECT J

and the

PROGRAMME =

button for a few

seconds until e.g.: ’CH36’ or ’591’ appears in the
display. The video recorder transmits a test picture on
UHF-channel 36 or frequency 591MHz.
