ming pool, and the like.
8. Accessories-Do not place this TVNCR on an unstable
cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The TV/VCR may
fall, causing serious injury to someone, and serious dam-
age to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, or table recommended
by the manufacturer, or sold with PORTABLE CART WARNING
the TV/VCR. Any mounting of
the appliance should follow the
manufacturer's instructions and
should use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufac-
turer. An appliance and cart com-
bination should be moved with

9,
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may
cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
Ventilation-Slots and openings in the cabinet and the
back or bottom are provided for ventilation and to ensure
reliable operation of the TV/VCR and to protect it from
overheating, these openings must not be blocked or cov-
ered. The openings should never be blocked by placing
the TV/VCR on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface.
This TV/VCR should never be placed near or over a
radiator or heat register. This TV/VCR should not be
placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack
unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufac-
turer's instructions have been adhered to.
10. Power Sources-This TVNCR should be operated only
from the type of power source indicated on the marking
label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to
your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power
company. For TVNCRs intended to operate from battery
power, or other sources, referto the operating instructions.
11. Grounding or Polarization-This TV/VCR is equipped
with a polarized alternating-current line plug(a plug hav-
ing one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into
the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If
you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact
your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
12. Power-Cord Protection-Power-supply cords should be
routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying
particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience recep-
tacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

13. Outdoor Antenna grounding-If an outside antenna or
cable system is connected to the TV/VCR, be sure the
antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides information with respect to
proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit,
size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-dis-
charge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and re-
quirements for the grounding electrode. (Fig. A)
14. Lightning-For added protection for this TV/VCR re-
ceiver during a lightning storm, or when it is left unat-
tended andunused for long periods of time, unplug it from
the wall outlet anddisconnect the antenna or cable system.
This will prevent damage to the TV/VCR due to lightning
and power-line surges.
15. Power Lines-An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other
electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into
such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside
antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep
from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with
them might be fatal.
16. Overloading-Do not overload wall outlets and extension
cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
17. Object and Liquid Entry-Never push objects of any kind
into this TV/VCR through openings as they may touch
dangerous vokage points or short out parts that could
result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any
kind on the TVNCR.
18. Servicing-Do not attempt to service this TV/VCR your-
self as opening or removing covers may expose you to
dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel.

often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the TV/VCR to its normal operation.
e. If the TVNCR has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f. When the TV/VCR exhibits a distinct change in perform-
ance-this indicates a need for service.
20. Replacement Parts-When replacement parts are re-
quired, be sure the service technician has used replace-
ment parts specified by the manufacturer that have the
same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, injury to
persons or other hazards.

A UTO CLOCK SL 171NG
You can have the TV/VCR set the clock automatically
by using the Public Broadcasting Station (PBS) channel
in your area. Once you have set the clock by using the
following procedure, the TV/VCR will automatically
monitor the correct time and date being broadcast by the
PBS station in your area, using a new service called
Extended Data Service (EDS).
Make sure ...
Turn on the TV/VCR.
Confirm that the antenna connections are correct.
The cable converter box must be turned on if your
TV/VCR is connected directly to it. (See NOTES)
You must use the remote control for the following
steps.
NOTES:
Auto clock setting only needs to be set once, but can
be done again if the clock's time has become
incorrect for some reason.
If the TV/VCR is connected directly to a cable
converter box, the local PBS station must be selected
on the cable box itself, and the TV/VCR must be set
to the output channel of the cable converter box
(usually channel 3 or 4), to be able to set up and
automatically correct the clock.
The TV/VCR cannot control the channels of the
cable converter box.

it may take for about a few minutes for this search to

If you choose [A UT01,
the TV/VCR must search through all the available
channels. It must scan each channel for a couple of
minutes to determine if that channel is transmitting
the EDS signal, because the PBS station will send this
signal only once every minute. This search could take
up to 2 hours. You may want to start this channel
search at night when the unit is not in use.
if the time that is automatically set by this selected
PBS station is incorrect, it may not be your local PBS
station, but one from a different time zone. Or there
is a case that no channel is broadcasting the EDS
signal in your area, as shown by no time being set
even after an overnight search. In these cases, you
must manually enter the correct local PBS station, or
set the clock manually, turning off the Auto Clock
Setting feature.

You can view specially labeled (cc) TV programs,
movies, news and pre-recorded tapes with either a
dialogue caption or text display.
CAPTION mode: By choosing the caption mode, you

ing the dialogues and the contents of news.

full screen text information.
1/2: You may get these captions or text information by
selecting either "1" or "2". "2" is used usually for a
second language if available.
NOTE:
Not all programs are broadcast with closed captions.
Your television is designed to provide error free closed
captions from high quality antenna, cable and VCR
signals. Conversely, poor quality signals are likely to
result in caption errors or no captions at all. Common
signal conditions which may cause captions errors are
listed below:
• Automobile ignition noise.
Electric motor brush noise.
Weak snowy reception on TV Screen.
• Multiplex signal reception displaying picture ghosts
or airplane flutter.
Playback of poorly recorded or worn VCR tapes.

particular scene on a tape. In this mode, the sound is
muted.

at ahigh speed in either a forward or reverse direction
by pressing F.FWD or REW button.

the "noise" lines.
This is not a fault of the machine, but merely a
by-product of the technology involved in produc-
ing a TV/VCR with LP mode.
If it is left in the PAUSE mode for more than five
minutes, the TV/VCR will automatically switch to
the STOP mode.
I NOISE CANCEL (in the STILL mode)
This feature allows you to reposition or reduce the noise
lines of a still picture.

CLOSED CAPTION
PROBLEM
My TV/VCR is showing captions
that are misspelled.
My TV/VCR will not show the
text in its entirety or there is a
delay of what is being said.
My captions are scrambled with
white boxes on the TV screen.
My program guide listed a TV
show as being closed captioned
but none of the captions were
displayed.
Although the tape box says it has
closed captions, my pre-recorded
video tape does not show any
captions.
POSSIBLE REMEDY
You are watching a live broadcast and spelling errors made by the closed
captioning production company may pass through uncorrected. A
pre-recorded program will not show any misspelled words because of the
normal time available for editing the captions.
Captions that are delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialogue are
common for live broadcasts. Most captioning production companies can
display a dialogue to a maximum of 220 words per minute. If a dialogue
exceeds that rate, selective editing is used to insure that the captions remain
up-to-date with the current TV screen dialogue.
Interference caused by building, power lines, thunderstorms, etc. may
cause scrambled or incomplete captions to appear.
Broadcasters may at times use a time compression process to speed up the
actual program so that additional advertising time can be given. Since the
decoder cannot read the compressed information, captions will be lost.
The video tape was either an illegal copy or the tape duplicating company
accidentally left out the captioning signals during the copying process.
My TV screen shows a black box You are in the TEXT mode. Select CAPTION mode or CAPTION [OFF].
on certain channels.
MAINTENANCE
CABINE TCLEANING SER VICING
Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of
the TV/VCR with asoft cloth immersed in lukewarm
water and wrung dry.
Never use a solvent or alcohol. Do not spray
insecticide liquid near the TV/VCR. Such chemicals
may cause damage and discoloration to the exposed
surfaces.
HEAD CLEANING
Picture playback may become blurred or interrupted
while the TV program reception is clear. This does
not mean that the recorded program has been erased.
Dirt accumulated on the video heads after long
periods of tape playback, or the usage of rental or
worn tapes can cause this problem. In this case, video
head cleaning requires highly technical attention,
therefore consult the nearest Sears Authorized
Service Center. Clean heads only when problems
occur.
Should your TV/VCR become inoperative, do not try
to correct the problem by yourself. There are no user-
serviceable parts inside. Turn off, unplug the power
cord, and take the unit to the nearest Sears Authorized
Service Center for servicing.
