Introduction  
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS  
13. LIGHTNING  
To protect your unit from 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  
unit due to lightning and power line surges.  
14. 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 onto or against 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.  
15. OVERLOADING  
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords, as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.  
16. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY  
Do not push objects through any openings in this unit, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short  
out parts that could result in fire or electric shock. Never spill or spray any type of liquid into the unit.  
17. OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING  
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the unit, be sure the antenna or cable system is  
grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges, Section 810 of the  
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 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.

18. SERVICING  
Do not attempt to service this unit yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous  
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.  
For example:  
a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.  
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the unit.  
c. If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.  
d. If the unit 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 unit to its normal operation.  
e. If the unit has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.  
f . When the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance, this indicates a need for service.

the manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part.  
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.  
20. SAFETY CHECK  
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this unit, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to  
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.

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 a product damage. Read the owner's manual of the other  
equipment carefully and follow the instructions when making any connections.  
24. 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.  
25. DISC  
Do not use a cracked, deformed, or repaired disc. These discs are easily broken and may cause serious  
personal injury and product malfunction.  
26. 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.  
Power source  
TO USE AC POWER SOURCE  
Use the AC polarized line cord provided for operation on AC. Insert  
AC Outlet  
the AC cord plug into a standard 120V 60Hz polarized AC outlet.  
Wider Hole  
and Blade  
Notes:  
Never connect the AC line cord plug to other than the specified  
voltage (120V 60Hz). Use the attached power cord only.  
If the polarized AC cord does not fit into a non-polarized AC  
outlet, do not attempt to file or cut the blade. It is the user’s  
responsibility to have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.  
If you cause a static discharge when touching the unit and the  
unit fails to function, simply unplug the unit from the AC outlet  
and plug it back in. The unit should return to normal operation.

Precautions  
Notes on handling  
Notes on moisture condensation  
When shipping the DVD/VCR, the original shipping  
carton and packing materials come in handy. For  
maximum protection, repack the unit as it was  
originally packed at the factory.  
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near  
the DVD/VCR. Do not leave rubber or plastic  
products to contact the DVD/VCR for a prolonged  
period. They will leave marks on the finish.  
The top and rear panels of the DVD/VCR may  
become warm after a long period of use. This is not a  
malfunction.  
Moisture condensation damages the DVD/VCR.  
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 head drum or the optical  
pick-up lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial  
internal parts of the DVD/VCR.  
o
f
n
s
Tape  
When the DVD/VCR is not in use, be sure to remove  
the disc and the video cassette turn off the power.  
If you do not use the DVD/VCR for a long period, the  
unit may not function properly in the future. Turn on  
and use the DVD/VCR occasionally.  
Head drum  
Moisture condensation occurs during the  
following cases.  
Notes on locating  
When you bring the DVD/VCR directly from a cold  
place to a warm place.  
Place the DVD/VCR 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 or the video  
tape may become disaligned and damage the DVD/  
VCR.  
When you place this DVD/VCR near a TV, radio or  
VCR, the playback picture may become poor and the  
sound may be distorted. In this case, place the DVD/  
VCR away from the TV, radio or VCR.  
When you use the DVD/VCR 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 DVD/VCR in a hot and  
humid place just after you move the unit from an air  
conditioned room.  
When you use the DVD/VCR in a humid place.  
Notes on cleaning  
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.  
Use a dry cloth to wipe.  
Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner and  
benzine, as they may damage the surface of the  
DVD/VCR.  
If you use a chemical saturated cloth to clean the unit,  
follow that product’s instructions.  
Do not use the DVD/VCR when moisture  
condensation may occur.  
If you use the DVD/VCR in such a situation, it may  
damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc or  
the video tape, connect the power cord of the DVD/  
VCR to the wall outlet, turn on the DVD/VCR, and  
leave it for two or three hours. After two or three  
hours, the DVD/VCR will have warmed up and  
evaporated any moisture. Keep the DVD/VCR  
connected to the wall outlet and moisture  
condensation will seldom occur.
