(Continued from previous page)
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the
product, 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 (U.S.A.), ANSI/ NFPA 70 provides
information with regard 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.
15. Lightning
For added protection for this product (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 product due to lightning and power-line
surges.
16. 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.
17. Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this
can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
18. Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into this product 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 product.
19. Servicing
Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening
or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage
or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
20. Damage Requiring Service
Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following
conditions:
a. If the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into
the product.
c. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the product does not operate normally by following
the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that
are covered by the operating instructions as an improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the product to its normal operation.
e. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has
been damaged.
f. If the product exhibits a distinct change in
performance.
21. Replacement Parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service
technician has used replacement parts specified by the
manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock, or other hazards.
22. Safety Check
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product,
ask the service technician to perform safety checks to
determine that the product is in proper operating
condition.
23. Wall or Ceiling Mounting

Additional TV/VCR Precautions
Moisture Condensation
Do not operate any
functions on this
unit for at least two
hours or three hours
when moisture in the
air condenses on it.
Let the unit stand
with power on (see
below).
What is moisture
Condensation?
When a cold liquid is poured into a
glass, 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
under the following conditions:
• When you move the unit from a cold
to a warm place.
• After heating a cold room or under
extreme humidity conditions.
When the unit has been exposed to
the above conditions - plug the
power cord into an AC outlet, press
the POWER button to turn the TV/VCR
on and leave it at room temperature
until the moisture condensation disappears. Depending on the surrounding conditions, this may take two or
three hours.
Unload Cassette, Turn Power
Off
When you finish
operating the
unit, always
unload the cassette and turn off
the power.
Vacation, Time Away
When you
will be
away and
the unit
will not be
operated for a long time, unplug the
AC power cord.
Static Discharge
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
then plug it back in. The unit should
return to normal operation.
Moisture and Dust
Avoid exposing
the unit to conditions which are
extremely dusty
or are extremely
moist and damp.
Ventilation
The ventilation holes
prevent overheating.
Do not block or
cover these holes.
Especially avoid covering the holes with
soft materials such as cloth or paper.
Electromagnetic Interference
Do not place the
unit near appliances which may
cause electromag-
netic interference
(e.g. speakers, etc.) Doing so may
cause erratic operation of the unit
including picture and/or sound distortion or noise.
Liquid Spills
Keep the unit away
from flower vases,
sinks, etc. If liquid
should be spilled in the
unit, serious damage
will result. If you spill
any liquids into the unit, unplug the
AC power cord immediately and con-
sult a qualified service person before
attempting to use the TV/VCR.
Extreme Heat
Avoid using or
exposing the
unit to extreme
heat; at or
above 104oF
(40oC).
For example, in direct sunlight.
Extreme Cold
Avoid using
the unit in
extreme cold;
at or below
41oF (5oC).
For example,
outdoors in freezing weather.
Foreign Objects
Do not insert
fingers or any
other foreign
objects into the
cassette loading
compartment. Do not spray cleaner or
wax directly on the unit or use forced
air to remove dust.
Strong Vibrations
Avoid using the unit
where there may be
strong vibrations.
Always use the unit
in a horizontal, flat
position only.
Lightning Storms, Unplug AC
Power Cord
To protect the
unit from a
lightning storm,
unplug the AC
power cord from
the wall outlet
and disconnect the antenna or CATV
cable.
Follow these simple precautions to avoid problems with your TV/VCR
