INTRODUCTION
Before Use (Continued)
Precautions
Handling the unit
When shipping the unit
Retain your original shipping carton and packing materials. For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as it was
originally packaged at the factory.
When setting up the unit
The picture or sound of nearby electrical equipment
may cause distortion during playback. When this
occurs, position the unit away from the interfering
devices, or turn off the unit after removing the disc.
To keep the surface clean
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,
near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in
contact with the unit for a long period of time. They may
leave marks on the surface.
Cleaning the unit
To clean the cabinet
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,
use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent
solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol,
benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface
of the unit.
To obtain a clear picture
The DVD+VCR is a high-tech, precision device. If the
optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or
worn, the picture quality will be poor.
Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended
after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the
operating environment.)
For details, please contact your nearest dealer.
Notes on Discs
Handling discs
Do not touch the playback side of the disc.
Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not
get on the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
Storing discs
After playing, store the disc in its case.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of
heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sunlight.
Cleaning discs
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor picture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean
the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,
thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static
spray intended for older vinyl records.
Cleaning the Video Heads
Playing poor quality or damaged tapes can contaminate
the video heads. Use only high quality tapes in your
DVD+VCR. Dirt which accumulates on the video heads
may cause the picture to blur. If this happens, the video
heads need to be cleaned. Purchase a non-abrasive
head cleaning tape from your video dealer.

Tips
Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish to
connect, there are various ways you could connect the
DVD+VCR. Use only one of the connections described
below.
Please refer to the manuals of your TV, VCR, Stereo
System or other devices as necessary to make the best
connections.
For better sound reproduction, connect the DVD+VCR’s
DVD/VHS AUDIO OUT jack to the audio in jacks of your
amplifier, receiver, stereo or audio/ video equipment. See
Connecting to optional equipment on page 14.
Caution
Make sure the DVD+VCR is connected directly to the TV.
Tune the TV to the correct video input channel.
Do not connect your DVD+VCR via another VCR. The DVD
image could be distorted by the copy protection system.
Connecting antenna/cable TV to
DVD+VCR
11
Disconnect the antenna leads from the rear of the
TV.
22
Identify the type of cable from your antenna. If it is
a round cable as illustrated, it is a 75 ohm coaxial
antenna cable. This cable will connect directly to
the connector marked ANT.IN on your DVD+VCR.
Tip
If your antenna lead wire is a flat type antenna cable,
connect it to a Antenna Adapter (300-ohm to 75-ohm)
(not supplied) and slip the Adapter onto the ANT.IN
connector. The Adapter does not screw on to the
DVD+VCR, it just slips over the connector.
Without Cable Box
If your cable wire is connected to your TV without a converter
or descrambler box, unscrew the wire from your TV and attach
it to the ANT.IN connector on the DVD+VCR. Use the supplied
round coaxial cable to connect between the unit’s RF. OUT
connector and the 75 ohm antenna input connector on the TV.
With this connection, you can receive all channels.
With Cable Box
If a converter is required in your cable system, follow the
instruction below:
The cable hookup permits both TV and VCR operation.
To view or record CATV channel
1 Tune the TV to the DVD+VCR output channel (CH 3 or 4).
2 Set the VCR channel selector to the output channel of the
Cable Converter box by pressing the CH/TRACK (
▲/▼) or
number (0-9) of your VCR. (Example: CH3)
3 Select the channel to view at the Cable Converter Box.
Notes
With this connection, you CANNOT record one program
while viewing another.
If you are using a cable box to tune channels, it is not
necessary to do Auto Channel Programming, (Auto
Channel Search) as indicated on page 16.
