Important Safeguards

1

For your protection, please read these safety instructions completely before operating the appliance, and
keep this manual for future reference.
Carefully observe all warnings, precautions, and instructions on the appliance, or the one described in the
operating instructions and adhere to them.

USE

INSTALLATION

Power Sources - This set should be operated only

from the type of power source indicated on the
marking label.

Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, exten­sion cords or convenience receptacles beyond their
capacity, since this can result in fire or electric
shock.

Alternate Warning - For the set with a three-wire
grounding type AC plug.
This plug will only fit into a grounding type power
outlet. This is a safety feature. lf you are unable to
insert the plug into the outlet contact your electrician
to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the grounding plug.

Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of
any kinds into the set through openings as they may
touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts
that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on the set

Attachments - Do not use attachments not recom­mended by the manufacturer, as they may cause
hazards.

Cleaning - Unplug the set from the wall outlet before
cleaning it. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol
cleaners. Use a cloth lightly dampened with water
for cleaning the exterior of the set.

Voltage?

UNPLUG

Water and Moisture - Do not use power-line oper­ated sets near water for example, near a bathtub,
washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a swimming pool.

lf you pour a cold liquid into a glass, water vapor in
the air will condense on the surface of the glass.
This is moisture condensation. Moisture condensa­tion on the head drum, one of the most crucial
parts of the Video recorder, will cause damage to
the tape. Whenever the Video recorder is exposed
to extreme cold and heat at the time, some conden-

sation will occur. When moisture is present, turn the
power switch on, and allow at least 2 hours for the
Video recorder to dry out.
Accessories - Do not place the set on an unstable
cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The set may fall,
causing serious injury to a child or an adult, and seri­ous damage to the set. Use only a cart stand tripod,
bracket, or table recommended by the manufactur­er.
Ventilation - These slots and openings in the cabi­net are provided for necessary ventilation. To ensure
reliable operation of the set, and to protect if from
overheating, these slots and openings must not be
blocked or covered.

- Never cover the slots and openings with a cloth
or other materials.

- Never block the slots and openings by placing
the set on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar sur­face.

- Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord.
Do not locate this television equipment where
the cord will be abused by persons walking on
it.

Portable Cart warning - An appliance and cart
combination should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may
cause the appliance and cart combination to
overturn.

2

- Never place the set in a confined space such as a
bookcase, or built-in cabinet, unless proper ven-tila­tion is provided.

Power-Cord Protection - Route the power cord so
that it is not likely to be walked on or pinched by items
placed upon or against them, paying particular atten­tion to the plugs, receptacles, and the point where the
cord exits from the appliance.

- Do not place the set near, over a radiator or heat reg­ister, or where it is exposed to direct sunlight.

Lightning-For protection for this set during a light­ning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from
the wall outlet. This will prevent damage to the
set due to lightning and power-line surges.

POWERLINE EXPOSURE

Damage Requiring Service - Unplug the set

from the wall outlet and refer servicing to quali­fied service personnel under the following condi­tions:

- When the power cord or plug is damaged or
frayed.

- lf liquid has been spilled or objects have
fallen into the set.

- lf the set has been subject to excessive shock

by being dropped, or the cabinet has been dam­aged.

- lf the set does not operate normally when fol-

lowing the operating instructions. Adjust only
those controls that are specified in the operating
instructions. lmproper adjustment of other con­trols may result in damage and will often require

extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the set to normal operation.

- When the set exhibits a distinct change in
performance-this indicates a need for
service.

Servicing - Do not attempt to service the set
yourself as opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous voltage or other haz­ards.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Replacement parts - When replacement parts
are required, be sure the service technician has
used replacement parts specified by the manu­facturer that have the same characteristics as the
original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

Safety Check - Upon completion of any service
or repairs to the set, ask the service technician to
perform routine safety checks (as specified by
the manufacturer) to determine that the set is in
safe operating condition.
