Troubleshooting - Philips DVDR3570H User Manual

WARNING!
Under no circumstances should you try to repair the system yourself, as this
will invalidate the warranty. Do not open the system as there is a risk of
electric shock.
If a fault occurs, fi rst check the points listed below before taking the system for
repair. If you are unable to solve a problem by following these hints, consult
your dealer or Philips for help.
Problem (General)
No power.
The message 'IS TV ON?'
appears on the display
panel.
The buttons on the
recorder do not work.
Remote control does not
work.
The recorder is switched
on automatically during
the night with some noise.
Solution
– Press the STANDBY-ON button on the front of the unit
to turn on the power.
– Make sure the mains cord is properly connected and the
AC outlet has power.
– This recorder will not operate until you complete the
fi rst installation. See 'Step 3: Installation and Set-up' for
details.
– There is a technical problem. Disconnect the recorder
from the power outlet for 30 seconds, then connect
again. If the recorder still will not operate, then reset it
to the default factory settings :
1) Disconnect the recorder from the power outlet.
2) Press and hold down STANDBY-ON button on the
front of the recorder while reconnecting to the power
outlet.
3) Release STANDBY-ON button when 'STARTING'
appears on the display.
4) Wait until the recorder's demo start scrolling on the
display, press STANDBY-ON again to turn on the
recorder. All the information stored in the memory
(programmes, time) will be cleared. The initial
installation menu will be displayed on the TV.
– Aim the remote control directly at the sensor on the
front of this recorder (not towards TV).
– Remove any obstacles between recorder and the remote
control.
– Batteries are weak, replace the batteries.
– In order to keep the EGP (Electronic Program Guide)
up-to-date, the recorder needs to receive new EPG
information every day. This receiving can only be done
when the recorder is not being used and therefore it is
scheduled in the middle of the night, when it is least
likely that you will be using it. Note that in the unlikely
case, the recorder is being used at this time, the EPG
update will be postponed to the next night.
