•• If your VCR is connected to a TV using a SCART lead, a video played
will automatically be displayed on the TV irrespective of the channel
you are watching (unlike "normal" RF aerial connection where you
must use a nominated channel).
••
•• The AV button your VCR provides a convenient method of switching
between an appliance connected to the SCART socket (e.g. a Satellite
Receiver) or TV stations received by your 'normal' aerial connected to
the AERIAL SOCKET of your VCR.
••
•• If you do not have anything plugged into the SCART SOCKET of your
VCR and you press AV the screen will go blank. Press AV again and
your TV will display the last station viewed on your VCR.
