THIS SYMBOL INDICATES THAT THERE ARE IMPORTANT OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE LITERATURE ACCOMPANYING THE APPLIANCE.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
AMEUBLES- Cet appareil ne doit être
placé que sur un meuble (avec ou sans roulettes) recommandé par le fabricant. Si vous l’installez sur un meuble à roulettes, déplacez les deux ensembles avec précaution. Un arrêt brusque, l’u­tilisation d’une force excessive et des surfaces irrégulières risquent de déstabiliser l’ensemble et de le renverser.
9. Ventilation-Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the TV/VCR and to protect it from overheat­ing, and 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 register. This TV/VCR should not be placed in a built­in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.
10.Power Sources-This TV/VCR 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.
11.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.

POWER SERVICE GROUNDI NG ELECTRODE SYSTEM (NEC ART 250, PART H)
13.Outdoor Antenna grounding-If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV/VCR, 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-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements 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 and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the TV/VCR 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, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
16.Overloading-Do 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 points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the TV/VCR.
18.Servicing-Do not attempt to service this TV/VCR yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to danger­ous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to quali­fied service personnel.
19.Damage Requiring Service-Unplug this TV/VCR 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 adjust­ment 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 perfor-
mance-this indicates a need for service.
20.Replacement Parts-When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same character­istics 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 TV/VCR 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.
CAUTION:TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.

PRECAUTIONSPRECAUTIONS
LOCATION
For safe operation and satisfactory performance of your TV/VCR, keep the following in mind when selecting a place for its installation:
Shield it from direct sunlight and keep it away
from sources of intense heat. Avoid dusty or humid places.
Avoid places with insufficient ventilation for proper
heat dissipation. Do not block the ventilation holes at the top and bottom of the unit. Do not place the unit on a carpet because this will block the ventila­tion holes.
Install unit in a horizontal position.
Avoid locations subject to strong vibration.
Do not place the TV/VCR near strong magnetic fields.
Avoid moving TV/VCR to locations where temper-
ature differences are extreme.
AV OID THE HAZARDS OF
ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND FIRE
Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.
Do not pull on the power cord when disconnecting
it from an AC wall outlet. Grasp it by the plug. If, by accident, water is spilled on your unit, unplug
the power cord immediately and take the unit to our Authorized Service Center for servicing.
Do not put your fingers or objects into the
TV/VCR cassette holder. Do not place anything directly on top of the unit.
WARNING
Moisture condensation may occur inside the unit when it is moved from a cold place to a warm place, or after heating a cold room or under conditions of high humidity. If a tape is played in a TV/VCR which has moisture, it may damage the tape and TV/VCR. Therefore when the condensation occurs inside the unit, turn the POWER button on and allow at least 2 hours for the unit to dry out.

Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC 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.
BOX
If your cable service supplies you with a converter box or if you use a satellite system, you can use the basic connection shown here.
By using this connection you can also record scram­bled channels. However, channel selection must be made with the converter box or satellite box. This means that channels cannot be changed using the TV/VCR Remote Control. Unattended timer record­ing is limited to one channel at a time.
