the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. if the plug should still faiI 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

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 fail 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 UQUID ENTRY

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 (NEC), ANSl/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. SERWC_NG

the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in
contact with the unit for a long time. They will leave
marks on the finish.
[] The top and rear panels of the unit may become
warm after a long period of use. This is not a
malfunction.
[] When the unit is not in use, be sure to remove the disc
and the video cassette turn off the power.
[] 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.
[] Place the unit on a leve! 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
come off the proper position and cause damage to
the unit.
[] 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.
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 head drum or the optical
pick-up lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial
internal parts of the unit.
_,ample
[] Moisture condensation occurs during the
following cases.
@ When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to a
warm place.
@ 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.
÷
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
@ For stubborn dirt, 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.
[] 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 or the video
tape, 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

television programs. Closed captioning will display text on the screen for
hearing impaired viewers or it will translate and display text in another

...._CLOSED CAPTION

Captions: This closed caption mode will display text on the screen in Engtish 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 usua!ly 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 wiII 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 wiII 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.

CAPTIONCH1
Notes:
When selecting closed captions, the captioning will be delayed approximately 10 seconds.
If no caption signa! 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,
especia!ly 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.

[] Video head cBogging
The video heads are the means by
which the unit reads the picture from the
tape during playback. In the unlikely
event that the heads become dirty
enough to be clogged, no picture will be
played back. This can easily be deter-
mined if, during playback of a known
good tape, there is good sound, but no
picture (picture is extremely snowy). If
this is the case, have the unit checked
by qualified service personnel.
Good Picture
Snowy Picture
[] Video head cleaning
Video head cleaning is needed when the playback picture
becomes unclear. This signifies that the heads are getting dirty
and can occur when playing poor quality or damaged tapes. If
the heads require cleaning, use a equivalent high quality chemical
non-abrasive (wet) head cleaning tape or have them cleaned
professionally. If playing a head cleaning tape in the unit once
does not improve the picture, play it several times before
requesting service.
Notes:
, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR
SERVICETHE UNIT BY REIVIOVING THE REAR COVER.
,, Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced
when they fail to produce clear pictures.
To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality
VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes.
