Important Safeguards and Precautions

FOR YOUR SAFETY, READ AND RETAIN ALL SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. HEED ALL WARNINGS IN THE MANUAL AND ON THE UNIT

INSTALLATION

1 POWER SOURCE CAUTION

Operate only from a power source indicated on the unit or in this manual. If necessary, have your Electric Utility Service Company or Video Products Dealer verify the power source in your home.

2 POLARIZED OR GROUNDING PLUG

As a safety feature, this Video product comes with either a polarized power cord plug (one blade is wider than the other), or a three-wire grounding type plug.

POLARIZED PLUG CAUTION:

This plug will only fit into an outlet one way. It you cannot fully insert the plug, try reversing it. If it still will not fit, have an electrician install the proper wall outlet. Do not defeat the safety feature by tampering with the plug.

GROUNDING PLUG CAUTION:

This plug will only fit into a three-hole grounding outlet. If necessary, have an electrician install the proper outlet. Do not defeat the safety feature by tampering with the plug.

3 POWER CORD

Make sure power cords are routed so that they are not likely to have anything rest on them, roll over them, or be in the way of walking traffic. If an extension cord is used, make sure it also has either a polarized or grounded plug and that the cords can be securely connected. Frayed cords, damaged plugs, and damaged or cracked wire insulation are hazardous and should be replaced by a qualified service technician. Overloaded outlets and extension cords are fire hazards and should be avoided.

4 DO NOT BLOCK VENTILATION HOLES

Ventilation openings in the cabinet release heat generated during (deration. If they are blocked, heat build-up inside the unit can cause tailures that may result in a fire hazard or heat damage to cassettes. For protection, follow these rules; a. Never cover ventilation slots or the unit

while in use, or operate the unit when placed

on a bed, sofa, mg, or other soft surface.

b. Avoid built-in installation, such as a book case

or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided,

5 AVOID EXTREMELY HOT LOCATIONS OR

SUDDEN TEMPERATURE CHANGES

Do not place the unit over or near any kind of heater or regulator, in direct sunlight, inside a dosed vehicle, etc.. Do not move the unit suddenly between areas of extreme temperature variation. If the unit is suddenly moved from a cold place to a warm place, moisture may condense in the unit and on the tape.

6 TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY

• Do not place unsecured equipment on a sloping surface.

• Do not place this unit on any support that is not firm, level, and adequately strong. The unit could fall causing serious injury to a child or adult and damage to the unit.

• 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.

• Carefully follow all operating instructions and use the manufacturer's recommended accessories when operating this unit or connecting it to any other equipment.

OUTDOOR ANTENNA INSTALLATION

SAFE ANTENNA AND CABLE CONNECTION

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the equipment, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against built up static charges and voltage surges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (in Canada, part 1 of the Canadian Electrical Code) 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 discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode.

KEEP ANTENNA CLEAR OF HIGH VOLTAGE POWER LINES

OR CIRCUITS

An outside antenna system should be located well away from power lines, electric light or power circuits and where it virill never come into contact with these power sources if it should happen to fall. When installing an outside antenna, extreme care should be taken to avoid touching power lines, circuits or other power sources as this could be fatal. Because of the hazards involved, antenna installation should be left to a protessional.

The selection mode in step 4 remains set unless there is a power outage in which case the original factory

setting will be restored. If playback is started in the middle of a commercial, only a single commercial is shown, or an individual

commercial is longer than 1 minute, a commercial may not be skipped. Press FF to quickly advance through the commercial.

Part of a recorded program may be skipped over if the program portion between commercials is less than one minute or there are frequent dark and quiet scenes during the program. To view the portion of tape being incorrectly skipped, press PLAY while the VCR is skipping, reverse the tape to a point just prior to where the skipping began and press PLAY again. This time the group will not be automatically skipped. Automatic skipping will be re-enabled when the end of the marked group is detected.

Tape Operation (continued)

The most commonly asked questions about commercl‘^--advance* are answered below.

Question

How fast does the VCR advance through commercials?

Are commercials advanced through only when 1 playback a recording?

Are commercials still recorded on the tape in case I choose to view them sometime?

Does coMMERCiAL--ABVAN€E* work In all recording speeds?

Does the VCR advance through commercials

each time f playback tapes which were

recorded using COMMERaAL<-ABWkBKE*?

After marking commercials, does the VCR stop at the end of the tape, or rewind to the beginning?

Can 1 play my COMMERCtAL'^'^JUJVANeE* recordings in non-comEROAL--AavANCE* VCRs?

Answer

The VCR advances through a 3-minute commercial block

in about 8 to 12 seconds if the tape speed is SLP. In SP, it takes about 25 to 35 seconds.

Yes. The commercials are not marked until after the recording is finished.

Yes. By setting the C/A PLAYBACK to MANUAL, see page 25, you can view or advance through commercials as desired.

Yes. COMMEROAL--ABVANCE* works in SP, LP, and SLP.

Yes. As long as C/A PLAYBACK is set to AUTO, see page 25, the VCR should advance through commercials each time the tape is played back.

The tape stops at the end of the recording so that any additional timer recordings can be performed.

Yes. CQMMEiiaAL'''^ABnMN€E* marked recordings will play in non-coMAif/sciAt^-iiDMaMCE* VCRs, but commercials will not be advanced through.

Does the marking process interfere with other programmed recordings?

What happens if 1 cancel the marking in progress so 1 can use the VCR?

What if part of my program is advanced through along with the commercials?

Additional Notes:

• Because of the various ways in which commercials are broadcast, the VCR may not be able to recognize all commercials.

• If a timer recording is scheduled for the middle of the night, please be aware that the VCR will make

some noise as it rewinds and fast forwards the tape while marking commercials.

No. If the interval between 2 or more timer programs is not sufficient to mark the recording, marking will be done after all recordings are complete and the power goes off.

Marking will be resumed when the VCR's power is turned off as long as the tape has not been ejected.

Please see the 3rd note on page 25.

Built-in Head Cleaner

A dean video head helps produce a clear

picture. So, we have equipped your VCR with a builtin, non-chemical head cleaning system that helps prevent clogging of the video heads. Cleaning is performed each time you load or unload a video cassette.

• This feature is preventative only, If your video heads are seriously clogged, consider the use of a chemical non-abrasive head cleaning kit or

take your VCR to a Service Center.

Cleaning the VCR

Use a soft cloth or dusting attachment of your vacuum cleaner to dust your VCR. Remove dust from the ventilation holes on

the back sides and bottom of the cabinet.

Plastic surfaces are easily scratched and can be marred by alcohol and various solvents. Avoid excessive use of oil-based furniture polishes since the materials used in the cabinet will accumulate more dust. We recommend using a nonabrasive, antistatic cleaner and polisher.

Features for a Quality Picture

Digital Auto Picture

Automatically controls the video output signal for

less noise depending on the tape condition.

Digital Auto Tracking

Continuously analyzes the signal and adjusts for optimum picture quality.
