Slots and openings in the case are provided
for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of
the unit and to protect it from overheating.
These openings must not be blocked or
covered. These openings must not be
blocked by placing the unit on a bed, sofa,
rug, or other similar surface. This unit should
never be placed near or over a radiator or
heat radiator. This unit should not be placed
in a built-in installation such as a bookcase
or rack unless proper ventilation is provided
or the manufacturer’s instructions have been
adhered to.
10 Power Sources
This unit 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
dealer or local power company. For units
intended to operate from battery power, or
other sources, refer to the operating
instructions.
11 Grounding or Polarization
This unit is equipped with a polarized
alternating -current line plug (a plug having
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 still fails to fit,
contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. To prevent electric shock, do
not use this polarized plug with an extension
cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the
blades can be fully inserted without blade
exposure. If you need an extension cord, use
a polarized cord.
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 receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the unit.
Note to CATV system installer
This reminder is provided to call the CATV
system installer’s attention to Section 820-40
of the NEC which provides guidelines for
proper grounding and, in particular, specifies
that the cable ground shall be connected to
the grounding system of the building, as
close to the point of cable entry as practical.

14 Power Lines
An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power
lines, 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 or approaching such
power lines or circuits as contact with them
might be fatal. Installing an outdoor antenna
can be hazardous and should be left to a
professional antenna installer.
15 Lightning
For added protection for this unit during a
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended
and unused for long periods of time, unplug
it from the wall outlet and disconnect the
antenna or cable system. This will prevent
damage to the unit due to lightning and
power line surges.
16 Disc Tray

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 unit.
19 Burden
Do not place a heavy object on or step on
the product. The object may fall, causing
serious personal injury and serious damage
to the product.

DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack. By hooking the DVD+VCR up to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, you
can enjoy high-quality surround sound.
1 Connect a coaxial digital audio cable (not included) from the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack on the
DVD+VCR to the Digital Audio In jack on the decoder.
2 Connect the TV as explained on page 12, for playback and recording of videotapes.
Not all DVD discs have these soundtrack formats.
