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/DVD is connected to a Cable TV system, the disturbance may be caused by the local Cable 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 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 (RFI) 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 TV/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. 58 Specifications GENERAL Power supply: Power consumption: Weight: Dimensions: TELEVISION Picture tube: Tuner type: Receiving channels: Antenna input: Speaker: Audio output power: DVD/CD player Signal system: Applicable disc: Audio characteristics: Frequency response: S/N Ratio: Harmonic distortion: Wow and flutter: Dynamic range: Input/Output: Headphone Jack: Digital audio out: Pickup: ACCESSORIES: AC 120V 60Hz Operation: 120W Stand by: 8W 56.1lbs (25.5 kg) Width : 22-5/8 inches (574 mm) Height : 20-3/8 inches (515 mm) Depth : 19-1/8 inches (483 mm) Type 20 (508 mm diagonal) Quartz PLL Frequency Synthesized VHF 2-13 UHF 14-69 CATV 14-36 (A)-(W) 37-59 (AA)-(WW) 60-85 (AAA)-(ZZZ) 86-94 (86)-(94) 95-99 (A-5)-(A-1) 100-125 (100)-(125) 01 (5A) VHF/UHF In 75 ohm coaxial 3" (76 mm), 8 ohm x 2 2.5W + 2.5W NTSC 1.
