Introduction
EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER THE
NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE
CONDENSATION
Moisture will form in the operating section of the DVD/VCR if the player is brought from cool surroundings into a
warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, the DVD/VCR's performance
will be impaired.
To prevent this, let the DVD/VCR stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before switching it on, or make
sure that the room temperature rises gradually.
Condensation may also form during the summer if the DVD/VCR is exposed to the breeze from an air
conditioner. In such cases, change the location of the DVD/VCR.
25. LASER BEAM
Do not look into the opening of the disc tray or ventilation opening of the product to see the source of the
laser beam. It may cause sight damage.
26. DISC
Do not use a cracked, deformed, or repaired disc. These discs are easily broken and may cause serious
personal injury and product malfunction.
27. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be con-
nected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
TO USE AC POWER SOURCE
Use the AC polarized line cord provided for operation on AC. Insert
the AC cord plug into a standard 120V 60Hz polarized AC outlet.
Notes:
Never connect the AC line cord plug to other than the specified
voltage (120V 60Hz). Use the attached power cord only.
If the polarized AC cord does not fit into a non-polarized AC
outlet, do not attempt to file or cut the blade. It is the user’s
responsibility to have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.
If you cause a static discharge when touching the unit and the
unit fails to function, simply unplug the unit from the AC outlet
and plug it back in. The unit should return to normal operation.

Introduction
Notes on handling
When shipping the DVD/VCR, the original shipping
carton and packing materials come in handy. For
maximum protection, repack the unit as it was
originally packed at the factory.
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near
the DVD/VCR. Do not leave rubber or plastic
products in contact with the DVD/VCR for a long time.
They will leave marks on the finish.
The top and rear panels of the DVD/VCR may
become warm after a long period of use. This is not a
malfunction.
When the DVD/VCR is not in use, be sure to remove
the disc and the video cassette turn off the power.
If you do not use the for a long period, the unit may
not function properly in the future. Turn on and use
the occasionally.
Notes on locating
Place the DVD/VCR on a level surface. Do not use it
on a shaky or unstable surface such as a wobbling
table or inclined stand. The loaded disc or the video
tape may come off the proper position and cause
damage to the DVD/VCR.
When you place this DVD/VCR near a TV, radio, or
VCR, the playback picture may become poor and the
sound may be distorted. In this case, place the DVD/
VCR away from the TV, radio, or VCR.
Notes on cleaning
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
For stubborn dirt, soak the cloth in a weak detergent
solution, wring well and wipe. Use a dry cloth to wipe
it dry.
Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner and
benzine, as they may damage the surface of the
DVD/VCR.
If you use a chemical saturated cloth to clean the unit,
follow that product’s instructions.
To obtain a clear picture
The DVD/VCR is a high technology, precision device. If
the video head, the head dram, the optical pick-up lens
and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the picture
quality becomes poor. To obtain a clear picture, we
recommend regular inspection and maintenance
(cleaning or parts replacement) every 1,000 hours of
use depending on the operating environment. For
details, contact your nearest dealer.
Notes on moisture condensation
Moisture condensation damages the DVD/VCR.
Please read the following carefully.
Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you
pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of
water form on the outside of the glass. In the same way,
moisture may condense on the head dram or the optical
pick-up lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial
internal parts of the DVD/VCR.
Moisture condensation occurs during the
following cases.
When you bring the DVD/VCR directly from a cold
place to a warm place.
When you use the DVD/VCR in a room where you
just turned on the heater, or a place where the cold
wind from the air conditioner directly hits the unit.
In summer, when you use the DVD/VCR in a hot and
humid place just after you move the unit from an air
conditioned room.
When you use the DVD/VCR in a humid place.
Do not use the DVD/VCR when moisture
condensation may occur.
If you use the DVD/VCR in such a situation, it may
damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc or
the video tape, connect the power cord of the DVD/
VCR to the wall outlet, turn on the DVD/VCR, and
leave it for two or three hours. After two or three
hours, the DVD/VCR will have warmed up and
evaporated any moisture. Keep the DVD/VCR
connected to the wall outlet and moisture
condensation will seldom occur.

Many cable companies offer services permitting reception of extra channels including pay or subscription channels. This
DVD/VCR has an extended tuning range and can be tuned to most cable channels without using a cable company
supplied converter box, except for those channels which are intentionally scrambled. If you subscribe to a special channel
which is scrambled, you must have a descrambler box for proper reception.
Allows: *Recording of nonscrambled channels.
*Use of the programmable timer.
*Recording of one channel while watching another.
Allows: *Recording of channels through the converter box
(scrambled and unscrambled).
*Using the programmable timer to record only the
channel selected at the converter box.
Prevents: *Recording one channel while watching another.
*Using the DVD/VCR tuner to select channels.

Video head cleaning
Video head clogging
The video heads are the means by
which the DVD/VCR 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 is the case, have the
DVD/VCR checked by qualified serv-
ice personnel.
Notes:
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR
SERVICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING THE REAR COVER.
Video heads may eventually wear out and should be re-
placed when they fail to produce clear pictures.
To help prevent video head clogging, use only good qual-
ity VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes.
