11. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION

This unit 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. Instead of the polarized alternating-current line plug, your unit

may be equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug (a plug having a third (grounding) pin). This plug will

only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This too, is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug

into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type 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

determine that the unit is in proper operating condition.

21. HEAT

The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other

products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

22. DISC TRAY

Keep your fingers well clear of the disc tray as it is closing. It may cause serious personal injury.

23. CONNECTING

When you connect the product to other equipment, turn off the power and unplug all of the equipment from

the wall outlet. Failure to do so may cause an electric shock and serious personal injury. Read the owner's

manual of the other equipment carefully and follow the instructions when making any connections.

24. SOUND VOLUME

Reduce the volume to the minimum level before you turn on the product. Otherwise, sudden high volume

sound may cause hearing or speaker damage.

25. SOUND DISTORTION

Do not allow the product output distorted sound for a longtime. It may cause speaker overheating and fire.

26. HEADPHONES

When you use the headphones, keep the volume at a moderate level. If you use the headphones continu-

ously with high volume sound, it may cause hearing damage.

27. LASER BEAM

Do not look into the opening of the disc tray or ventilation opening of the product to see the source of the

laser beam. It may cause sight damage.

28. DISC

Do not use a cracked, deformed, or repaired disc. These discs are easily broken and may cause serious

personal injury and product malfunction.

29. NOTE TO CABLE TV SYSTEM INSTALLER

This reminder is provided to call the Cable TV 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 con-

nected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

Introduction

Precautions

Notes on handling

Notes on moisture condensation

3 When shipping the unit, the original shipping carton

and packing materials come in handy. For maximum

protection, repack the unit as it was originally packed

at the factory.

3 Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near

the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products to

contact the unit for prolonged period. They will leave

marks on the finish.

Moisture condensation damages the unit. Please

read the following carefully.

Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you

pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of

water form on the outside of the glass. In the same way,

moisture may condense on the optical pick-up lens

inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of

the unit.

3 The top and rear panels of the unit may become

warm after a long period of use. This is not a

malfunction.

3 When the unit is not in use, be sure to remove the

disc and turn off the power.

3 If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit

may not function properly in the future. Turn on and

use the unit occasionally.

3 Moisture condensation occurs during the

following cases.

Notes on locating

When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to

a warm place.

3 Place the unit on a level surface. Do not use it on a

shaky or unstable surface such as a wobbling table or

inclined stand. The loaded disc may become dis-

aligned and damage the unit.

3 When you place this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR,

the playback picture may become poor and the sound

may be distorted. In this case, place the unit away

from the TV, radio, or VCR.

When you use the unit in a room where you just

turned on the heater, or a place where the cold wind

from the air conditioner directly hits the unit.

In summer, when you use the unit in a hot and humid

place just after you move the unit from an air

conditioned room.

When you use the unit in a humid place.

Notes on cleaning

Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.

For stubborn dirt, soak the cloth in a weak detergent

solution, wring well and wipe. Use a dry cloth to wipe

it dry.

Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner and

benzine, as they may damage the surface of the unit.

If you use a chemical saturated cloth to clean the unit,

follow that product’s instructions.

3 Do not use the unit when moisture condensation

may occur.

If you use the unit in such a situation, it may damage

discs and internal parts. Remove the disc, connect

the power cord of the unit to the wall outlet, turn on

the unit, and leave it for two or three hours. After two

or three hours, the unit will have warmed up and

evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit connected to

the wall outlet and moisture condensation will seldom

occur.

To obtain a clear picture

The unit is a high technology, precision device. If the

optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn

down, the picture quality will deteriorate. To obtain a

clear picture, we recommend regular inspection and

maintenance (cleaning or parts replacement) every

1,000 hours of use depending on the operating

environment. For details, contact your nearest dealer.

TV operation

Closed captions

WHAT IS CLOSED CAPTIONING?

CLOSED

CAPTION

This television has the capability to decode and display closed captioned

television programs. Closed captioning will display text on the screen for

hearing impaired viewers or it will translate and display text in another

language.

Closed captions

Captions: This closed caption mode will display text on the screen in English or another language (depending

on the setting of the closed captions CH 1/2).

Generally, closed captions in English are transmitted on captions channel 1 and closed captions in other lan-

guages are transmitted on captions channel 2.

Text: The text closed caption mode will usually fill the screen with a programming schedule or other information.

After selecting a closed caption mode, it will stay in effect until it is changed, even if the channel is changed.

If the captions signal is lost due to a commercial or a break in the signal, the captions will reappear when the

signal is received again. If the channels are changed, the captions will be delayed approximately 10 seconds.

The captions will appear in places on the screen where they will least interfere with the picture, usually on the

bottom of the screen. News programs will usually show three-line closed captions which scroll onto the screen.

Most other shows provide two or three lined captions placed near the character who is speaking so the viewer

can follow the dialogue. Words in italics or underlined describe titles, words in foreign languages or words

requiring emphasis. Words that are sung usually appear enclosed by musical notes.

For television programs broadcasting with closed captions, look in your TV guide for the closed captions symbol

(CC).

TO VIEW CLOSED CAPTIONS

Press CLOSED CAPTION to switch between normal TV and the two closed

caption modes (captions and full screen text). Closed captioning will display text

on the screen for hearing impaired viewers.

CLOSED

CAPTION

Notes:

• When selecting closed captions, the captioning will be delayed approximately 10 seconds.

• If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in the caption mode.

• Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during closed captioning. This is normal with closed captioning,

especially with live programs. This is because during live programs, captions are also entered live. These transmissions do not

allow time for editing.

• When captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may not be seen or may interfere with closed

captions.

• Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the closed captioned signal.

• If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the closed caption decoder may not appear or may appear with

strange characters or misspelled words. In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception or use an outdoor antenna.

Reception disturbances

Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the VHF/UHF

antenna. Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results. The most common types of television

interference are shown below. If one of these symptoms appear when the TV/DVD is connected to a Cable

TV system, the disturbance may be caused by the local Cable TV company broadcast.

IGNITION

Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, the picture may flutter or

drift. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems,

neon lamps or AC powered tools and appliances such as drills or hair

dryers.

GHOSTS

Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is

the direct path and the other is reflected by tall buildings, hills or other

large objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may

improve the reception.

SNOW

If the TV/DVD is located far from the TV station, in a fringe reception

area where the signal is weak, small dots may appear in the picture.

If the signal is extremely weak, the installation of a larger external

antenna may be necessary.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RFI)

Caused by two-way radios, this type of interference produces moving

ripples or diagonal streaks in the picture. Some cases may cause a

loss of contrast in the picture. Changing the direction and position of

the antenna or installing an RFI filter may improve the picture.

PICTURE SIZE VARIATION

A slight picture size variation is normal when you adjust the CONTRAST

or BRIGHTNESS settings.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect the TV/DVD from the power source before cleaning.

The finish on the cabinet may be cleaned with mild soap and a soft, damp cloth and cared for as other furniture.

Use caution when cleaning or wiping the plastic parts.
