EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER THE
NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE
CONDENSATION
Moisture will form in the operating section of the player if the player is brought from cool surroundings into a
warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, player's performance will be
impaired.
To prevent this, let the player 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 player is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner.
In such cases, change the location of the player.
28. 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.
29. DISC
Do not use a cracked, deformed, or repaired disc. These discs are easily broken and may cause serious
personal injury and product malfunction.
30. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installers 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 users
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.

NOTES: A clear picture will not be obtained by the DVD/VCR unless the antenna signal is good. Connect the
antenna to the DVD/VCR properly.
For better quality recording, an indoor antenna or a telescopic antenna is not recommended. The use of
an outdoor type antenna is required.
If you are not sure about the connection, please refer to qualified service personnel.
If you are using an antenna system, follow the instructions. If you are a cable (CATV) subscriber,
skip ahead
to page 14 for the proper connections.
ANTENNA TO DVD/VCR CONNECTION
The DVD/VCR must be connected "between" the antenna and the TV. First, disconnect the antenna from the TV
and connect it to the DVD/VCR. Then connect the DVD/VCR to the TV. Below are 3 common methods of connecting
an antenna system to a DVD/VCR. Find the type of antenna system you are using and follow the connection
diagram.
If both VHF and UHF antennas have 300 ohm twin lead (flat) wires, use a combiner having two 300
ohm inputs and one 75 ohm output.

Below are 3 common methods of connecting your DVD/VCR to a TV. Find the type of TV you are using and follow
the connection diagram.
This DVD/VCR has a single 75 ohm output for connection to a TV. If your TV has separate VHF and UHF antenna

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/DVD is connected to a Cable
TV system, the disturbance may be caused by the local Cable TV company broadcast.
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.
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.
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.
