What is a Liquid Crystal Display?
A Liquid Crystal Display basically comprises two transparent sheets of a polarising material, with a liquid containg rod-shaped crystals sandwiched between them. The LCD panels themselves do not emit light, but are backlit with red, green and blue light. An electronic signal controls the light transmission properties of the LCD panels by influencing each crystal in the display to block, partially block or transmit the light incident on it. An image is formed by combing the individual outputs from the three separate panels.

Why did my video's clock not change to summertime / GMT?
The Clock Adjust feature will function only when the video recorder is in 'standby' mode, i.e. the power is switched off. You should ensure that the VCR is in standby mode overnight when summertime begins or ends.
You should check that the Clock Adjust feature is switched on via the menu. The dot on the screen should be against 'Auto' rather than 'Off' or 'Manual'.
If Clock Adjust does not appear on the menu at all this suggests the Auto Tuning was not used when first installing the VCR. During the Auto Tuning process the Clock Adjust function is activated and the feature will then appear on the menu.

Why do the batteries not charge in my portable compact disc player?
If your CD player has a recharging facility built in, this will be explained in the instruction leaflet. The recharging takes place automatically whenever the CD player is connected by the AC adaptor to the mains supply.
The compact disc player can recharge only those NiCad batteries which are specifically designed for the purpose, the type is given in the leaflet (for example SANYO NBP3OB or NBP5OA). These batteries have a contact point which connects to the charging circuit via a pin which you will see within the battery compartment. Other rechargeable batteries will not charge within the CD player, although if charged up in a separate unit, they can be used to power the CD.
