This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of fire or electric shock to persons.
This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
Note to CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electrical Code (Section 54 of Canadian Electrical Code, Part I) that 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.
Caution: FCC regulations state that any unauthorized changes or modifications to this equipment may void the user's authority to operate it.
Caution: To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully insert.
Attention: Pour eviter les chocs electriques, introduire la lame le plus large de la fiche dans la borne
correspondante de la prise et pousser jusqu’au fond.
Important: One Federal Court has held that unauthorized recording of copyrighted TV programs is an infringement of U.S. copyright laws. Certain Canadian programs may be copyrighted and any unauthorized recording in whole or in part may be a violation of these rights.

Connecting the Antenna Cable

There are several ways to connect your DVD-VCR. Select one of the following antenna connections that best suits you below.
Method 1: Antenna + DVD-VCR + TV: No Cable box
Method 2: Antenna +Cable box + DVD-VCR + TV: Cable box with many scrambled channels
Method 3: Antenna + DVD-VCR + Cable box +TV: Cable box with a few scrambled channels
- If you are using an off-air antenna that has 300-ohm twin flat leads, use an external antenna connector (300-75 ohm adaptor: not supplied) to connect the antenna to the DVD-VCR.
- If you have two separate antennas (one VHF and the other UHF), use a UHF/VHF combiner-adaptor (available at most electronics shops) to connect the antenna to the DVD-VCR.
- The RF OUT(TO TV) jack of this product sends signals received through the antenna and outputs Audio/Video signals.
Method1: Antenna + DVD-VCR + TV: No Cable box
You can record non-scrambled channels by selecting the channel on the DVD-VCR. Also use this Method if you watch channels without cable box.
