THIS SYMBOL INDICATES THAT DAN- GEROUS VOLTAGE CONSTITUTING A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK IS PRESENT WITHIN THIS UNIT.

THIS SYMBOL INDICATES THAT THERE ARE IMPORTANT OPERATING AND

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE LITERATURE ACCOMPANYING THE AP- PLIANCE.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

1.Read instructions-All the safety and operating instruc-

tions should be read before the appliance is operated.

2.Retain Instructions-The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.

3.Heed Warnings-All warnings on the appliance and in the

operating instructions should be adhered to.

4.Follow Instructions-All operating and use instructions should be followed.

5.Cleaning-Unplug TV/VCR from the wall outlet before

cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. EXCEPTION : A product that is meant for uninterrupted

service and, that for some specific reason, such as the

possibility of the loss of an authorization code for aCATV converter, is not intended to be unplugged by the user for cleaning or any other purpose, may exclude the reference to unplugging the appliance in the cleaning description otherwise required in item 5.

6.Attachments-Do not use attachments not recommended

by the TV/VCR manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

7.Water and Moisture-Do notuse this TV/VCR nearwater- for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or

laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool,

and the like.

8.Accessories-Do not place this TV/VCR on an unstable

cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The TV/VCR may fall, causing serious injury to someone, and serious damage to

the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the

manufacturer, or sold with 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

care.

PORTABLE CART WARNING

Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

9.Ventilation-Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back orbottom are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the TV/VCR and to protect it from overheat- ing, these openings must not be blocked or covered. 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

tilation is provided or the manufacturer' sinstructions 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 TV/VCRs intended to operate from battery

power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

ll.Grounding or Polarization-This TV/VCR 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 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 receptacles, and

the point where they exit from the appliance.

ANTENNA LEAD IN WIRE

13.Outdoor Antenna gi'ounding-If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TVNCR, 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 receiver

during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and

unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall

outlet anddisconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the TVNCR 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, orwhere it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touch- ing such power lines or circuits as contact with them might

be fatal.

16.Overloading-D0 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 voltage po:mtsor short out partsthat 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 TVNCR yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to danger-

ous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to quali- fied service personnel.

19.Damage Requiring Service-Unplug this TVPCCR from

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

a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed. b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the

TV/VCR. c. If the TV/VCR has been exposed to rain or water. d. If the TV/VCR does not operate normally by following the

operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are

covered by the operating instructions, as improper adjust-

ment of other controls may result in damage and will often

require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore

the TV/VCR to its normal operation. e. If the TV/VCR 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 repl_icemeflt parts ai'e'reqfiired,

be sure the service technician has used replacement parts

specified by the manufacturer that have the same charac- teristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions

may result in fire, electric shock, injury to persons or other

hazards.

21.Safety Check-Upon completion of any service or repairs

to this TV/VCR, ask the service technician to perform

routine safety checks to determine that the TVNCR is in

proper operating condition.

22.Heat-This TV/VCR product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or

other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
