Cable TV connections
This unit has an extended tuning range and can tune most cabJe ehanneJs without using a Cable TV
Converter box, Some cable companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal is
serambJed, DescrambHng these signals for normaO viewing requires the use of a descrambJer device
which is generally provided by the cable company.
FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE
For basic cable service not requiring a Converter/Descrambler
box_ connect the 75 ohm Coaxial Cable directly to the RF IN
Jack on the back of the unit.
FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO SCRAMBLED CABLE TV SERVICE
If you subscribe to a cable TV service which requires the use of a converter/descrambler box, connect the
incoming 75 ohm coaxial cable to the converter/descrambler box. Using another 75 ohm coaxial cable, connect
the output jack of the converter/descrambler box to the RF IN jack on the unit Follow the connections shown
below. Set the unit to the output channel of the converter/descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the
converteddescrambler box to select channels.

Cmosed caption
WHAT iS CLOSED CAPTIONING?
This television has the capability to decode and display closed captioned television programs. Closed captioning
will display text on the screen for hearing impaired viewers or it will translate and display text in another language
Captions: This closed caption mode will display text on the
screen in English or another language (depending on the set-
ting of the closed captions CH 1/2)
Generally, closed captions in English are transmitted on captions
channel 1 and closed captions in other languages are transmitted
on captions channel 2
Text: The text closed caption mode will usually fill the screen
with a programming schedule or other information
After selecting a closed caption mode, it will stay in effect until it
is changed, even if the channel is changed.
If the captions signal is lost due to a commercial or a break in
the signal, the captions will reappear when the signal is received
again. If the channels are changed, the captions will be delayed
approximately 10 seconds. The captions will appear in places
on the screen where they will least interfere with the picture,
usually on the bottom of the screen. News programs will usually
show three-line closed captions which scroll onto the screen.
Most other shows provide two or three lined captions placed
near the character who is speaking so the viewer can follow the
dialogue Words in italics or underlined describe titles, words in
foreign languages or words requiring emphasis. Words that are
sung usually appear enclosed by musical notes.
For television programs broadcasting with closed captions, look
in your TV guide for the closed captions symbol (CC)
TO ViEW CLOSED CAPTmONS
Press CLOSED CAPTION to
switch between normal TV and the
two closed caption modes (cap-
tions and full screen text). Closed
captioning will display text on the
screen for hearing impaired
viewers
NOTES:
When selecting closed captions, the captioning will be delayed approximately 10 seconds
If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in the caption mode.
Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during closed captioning. This is normal with
closed captioning, especially with live programs. This is because during live programs, captions are also
entered live. These transmissions do not allow time for editing.
When captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may not be seen or may
interfere with closed captions.
Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the closed captioned signal.
If using an indoor antenna or ifTV reception is very poor, the closed caption decoder may not appear or
may appear with strange characters or misspelled words tn this case, adjust the antenna for better reception
or use an outdoor antenna

Reception disturbances
Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the VHF!UHF
antenna. Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results. The most common types of television
interference are shown below, if one of these symptoms appear when the TV/VCR./DVD is connected to a
Cable TV system, the disturbance may be caused by the Jocat CabJe TV company broadcast.
iGNiTiON
Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, the picture may flutter or
drift. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems,
neon lamps or AC powered tools and appliances such as drills or hair
dryers
GHOSTS
Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is
the direct path and the other is reflected by tall buildings, hills or other
large objects Changing the direction or position of the antenna may
improve the reception
SNOW
If the TV/VCR/DVD is located far from the TV station, in a fringe
reception area where the signal is weak, small dots may appear in the
picture.
If the signal is extremely weak, the installation of a larger external
antenna may be necessary.
RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RF!)
Caused by two-way radios, this type of interference produces moving
ripples or diagonal streaks in the picture Some cases may cause a
loss of contrast in the picture Changing the direction and position of
the antenna or installing an RFI filter may improve the picture
PICTURE SIZE VARIATION
A slight picture size variation is normal when you adjust the CONTRAST
or BRIGHTNESS settings
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect the TVNCR/DVD from the power source before cleaning.
The finish on the cabinet may be cleaned with mild soap and a soft, damp cloth and cared for as other furniture.
Use caution when cleaning or wiping the plastic parts.

Video head cleaning
Video head clogging
The video heads are the means by which the TV/VCR/DVD reads
the picture from the tape during playback In the unlikely event that
the heads become dirty enough to be clogged, no picture will be
played back. This can easily be determined if, during playback of a
known good tape, there is good sound, but no picture (picture is
extremely snowy). If this isthe case, have the TV/VCR/DVD checked
by qualified service personnel Good Picture Snowy Picture
NOTES: . DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR SERVICE THE TV/VCR/DVD BY REMOV-
ING THE REAR COVER.
. Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced when they fail to produce clear pictures.
To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes 69
