PRECAUTIONS

MOISTURE CONDENSATION

DO NOT OPERATE ANY FUNCTIONS ON THIS UNIT FOR AT LEAST TWO OR THREE HOURS WHEN MOISTURE IN THE AIR CONDENSES ON IT. LET THE UNIT STAND WITH POWER ON (SEE BELOW).

■ WHAT IS MOISTURE CONDENSATION?

Wven a cold liquid is poured into a giass, for example, water vapor in the air will condense on the surface of the glass. This is called moisture condensation. .

■ MOISTURE WILL CONDENSE ON THE UNIT IN THE FOLLOWING CASES;

• When you move the unit from a cold to a wann place.

• After heating a coid room or under extremely humid conditions.

■ WHEN YOU EXPERIENCE THE ABOVE CONDITIONS,

Plug the power cord into an AC outlet, set the POWER switch to ON and leave the unit at room tentpeiature until moislure condensation disappears,

Depending on the surrounding conditions, this may take two or three hours.

If you cause a static discharge when touching the unit, and the unit fails to function, simply unplug the unit from the wall outlet, wait a few minutes, and plug it back in. The unit should return to normal operation.

Do not place the unit on or near appliances which may cause electromagnetic interference (e.g. speakers, etc). Doing so may cause erratic operation

0# the unit irxdixjing picture and/or sound distortion or

noise.

Weo Tape

Do not insert fingers or any other objects into the cassette loading slot Do not spray cleaner or wax directly on the unit or use forc^ air to remove dust

The precautions below should be followed when using batteries in this device:

1. Use only the size and type of batteries specified.

2. Be sure to follow the correct pdarity when installihg №e batteries as indicated in the battery compartment.

Reversed batteries may cause damage to the device.

3. Do not mix different types of batteries trrgedrer (e.g. Atkaline and Carbon-zinc) or old batteries witti fresh

ones.

4. If the device is not to be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent damage or injury

from possible battery leakage.

5. Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged: they can overheat and rupture. (Follow

battery manufacturer’s directions.)

CABLE TV CONNECTIONS

This TV/VCR has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV converter box. Some cable companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these

signals for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which is generally provided by the cable company.

SETTING LANGUAGE

This TV/VCR can display the on screen language in English, Spanish or French.

Language selection {step 3) will automatically appear on the screen when you press the MENU button

initially. Select language to use the other menu options.

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE

For basic cable service not requiring a converter/descrambler box, connect the CATV 75 ohm coaxial cable directly Ic the antenna jack

on the back of the TV/VCR.

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO SCRAMBLED CABLE TV SERVICE

If you subscribe to a cable TV service which requires the use of a converter/descrambler box, connect the incoming 75 ohm coaxial cable to the converter/descrambler box. Using another 75 ohm coaxial cable, conned the output jack of the converter/descrambler box to the antenna jack on the TV/VCR. Follow the connedions shown below. Set the TV/VCR to the output channel of the converter/descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use die converter/ descrambler box to seled channels.

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO UNSCRAMBLED BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE WITH

SCRAMBLED PREMIUM CHANNELS

If you subscribe to a cable TV service in which basic channels are unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a converter/descrambler box, you may wish to use a signal splitter and an A/6 switch box (available from the

Cable company or an electronics supply store). Follow the connections shown below. With the switch in the "B"

position, you can directly tune any nonscrambled channels on your TV/VCR. With the switch in the “A” position, tune

your TV/VCR to the output of the converter/descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the converter/ descrambler box to tune scrambled channels.

RECEPTION DISTURBANCES

Most types of television interfarance can be remedied by sdjusting the height and position of the VHFAJHF antenna. Outdoor antennas are recommended for treat results. The most common types of television Interfer

ence are shown below. If one of these symptoms appear when the TV/VCR Is connected to a Cable TV system, the disturbance may be cauaed by the local Cable TV company broadcast.

IGNITION

Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, the picture may flutter or drill. Usually caused by interference Irom automobile ignilion systems, neon lamps or AC powered tools and appliances such as drills or hair dryers.

HECOROING TV/VCR

GHOSTS

Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One Is Ihe direct path and the other is reflected by tall buildings, hills or other large objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve the reception.

SNOW

If the TV/VCR is located far from the TV station, in a fringe reception area where the signal is weak, small dots may appear in the picture. If the signal is extremely weak, the installation of a larger external antenna may be nersessary.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RFI)

Caused by two-way radios, this type of interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks in the picture. Some cases may cause a loss of contrast in the picture. Changing the direction and position of the antenna or installing an RFI filter may improve the picture.

PICTURE SIZE VARIATION

A slight picture size variation is normal when you adjust the CONTRAST or BRIGHTNESS settings.

NOTE: • It is recommended &iat the tape speed be set to the SP mode on the TV/VCR for best results.

• Unauthorized recording of copyrighted television programs, films, video cassettes and other materials may

infringe the rights of copyright owners and be contrary to copyright laws.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect the TV/VCR from the AC power source before cleaning. The finish on tfie cabinet may be cleaned with mild soap and a soft, damp cloth and cared for as other furniture. Use caution when cleaning or wiping the plastic parts.

VIDEO HEAD CLEANING

SPECIFICATIONS

VIDEO HEAD CLOGGING

The video heads are the means by which the TV/VCR reads the picture from the tape during playback, in the unlikely event that the heads become dirty enough to be clogged, no picture will be played back. This can easily be determined if, during playback of a known good tape, there is good sound, but no picture (picture is extremely snowy). If this is the case, have the TV/VCR checked by qualified service personnel.

Good Picture

Snowy Picture

VIDEO HEAD CLEANING

AUTO HEAD CLEANING system cleans the video heads aulofrratically when a cassette is inserted or ejected to prevent dirt from accumulating on the heads. However, manual head cleaning is nseded if the picture on playback is still undear although the picture on program is normal. This failure signifies that the head is getting dirty and occurs when playing poor quality or damaged tapes. If the heads require cleaning, use a high quality head cleaning system or have them cleaned professionally.

NOTE: • DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR SERVICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING THE REAR

COVER.

• Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced when they fail to produce clear pictures.

• To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes.
