PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK,

DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK).

NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.

REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, 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 electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture.

CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot of electrical outlet and insert fully.

CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer may void the user's authority to operate this VCR.

Location

For safe operation and satisfactory performance of your VCR, keep the following in mind when selecting a place for its installation:

œShield it from direct sunlight and keep it away from sources of intense heat.

œAvoid dusty or humid places.

œAvoid places with insufficient ventilation for proper heat dissipation. Do not block the ventilation holes of the VCR. Do not place the unit on a carpet because this will block the ventilation holes.

œInstall the VCR in a horizontal position only.

œAvoid locations subject to strong vibrations.

œAvoid moving the VCR between cold and hot locations (see “Moisture Condensation Problems”, this page).

œDo not place the VCR directly on top of the TV, as this may cause playback or recording problems.

Avoiding Electric Shock or Fire

œDo not handle the power cord with wet hands.

œDo not pull on the power cord when disconnecting it from an AC wall outlet. Grasp it by the plug.

œIf any liquid is spilled on the VCR, unplug the power cord immediately and have the unit inspected at a factory-authorized service center.

œDo not place anything directly on top of the VCR.

WARNING: Unauthorized recording or use of television broadcast, video tape, film or other copyrighted material may violate applicable copyright laws. The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for unauthorized duplication, use or other acts that infringe upon the rights of copyright owners.

Prevention:

1 Make all necessary connections.

2 Plug the power cord into a 120 V AC wall outlet.

3 Turn on the power.

4Do not operate the VCR or insert a cassette for approximately 2 hours.

This allows the VCR to warm up to the temperature of the room where it will be used.

300 ohm Twin-lead Cable

Channel Switch Setting

Set your TV to either channel 3 or channel 4. Then set the VCR's RF CHANNEL switch to channel 3 or 4 to match the channel selected on the TV. This is your VCR channel. The TV must be set to this channel whenever the VCR is used for playing a tape or watching a TV program. If in doubt, check with your local cable company.

ALTERNATIVE CABLE TV CONNECTIONS

Your VCR can receive all unscrambled cable channels without the use of an external converter. If you wish to view and record scrambled cable channels, you must connect a converter/decoder as described below.

Your local cable TV company will advise you of the channels available in your area.

We recommend that you consult your cable TV company to make sure that the cable is properly connected.

When the TV does not have a built-in cable converter

Connect the cable TV converter between the VCR and the TV so that you can watch a cable TV program while recording another program.

NOTE: Set the TV channel to the cable converter output channel (CH02 ~ 07).
