Toggle Between NTSC and PAL
NTSC ( ) and PAL ( ) are TV signal formats. NTSC is used
primarily in North America and Japan. PAL is used in many
West European countries including the United Kingdom and
Germany. Instead of NTSC and PAL, France and many East
European countries including Russia use another format simi-

lar to PAL called SECAM. Normally, a SECAM TV set can also
display PAL contents. So if you are in a SECAM country, you
can set your MVVR to PAL. If you don’t know which one to use,
you can experiment. It will not harm your TV.
If your TV does not properly display the pictures, press
the volume dial and then press the shutter to select the right
format.
If the video is only slightly distorted, you may need to
check the connection between your MVVR and the TV set.
