CONDENSATION  
Moisture will form in the operating section of the player if the player is brought from cool surroundings  
into a warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, player's  
performance will be impaired.  
To prevent this, let the player stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before switching it on, or  
make sure that the room temperature rises gradually.  
Condensation may also form during the summer if the player is exposed to the breeze from an air  
conditioner. In such cases, change the location of the player.

Cable TV connections  
This TV/DVD has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable  
TV Converter box. Some cable companies offer “premium pay channels” in which the signal is  
scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device  
which is generally provided by the cable company.  
FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE

Closed caption  
WHAT IS CLOSED CAPTIONING?  
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.  
Captions: This Closed Caption Mode will display text on the  
screen in English or another language (depending on the set-  
ting of the Closed Captions CH 1/2).  
Generally, Closed Captions in English are transmitted on Cap-  
tions Channel 1 and Closed Captions in other languages are

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.

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.

To memorize channels  
This TV/DVD is equipped with a channel memory feature which allows channels to skip up or down to the next  
channel set into memory, skipping over unwanted channels. Before selecting channels, they must be pro-  
grammed into the TV/DVD’s memory. In addition to normal VHF and UHF channels, this TV/DVD can receive up  
to 113 Cable TV channels. To use this TV/DVD with an antenna, set the TV/CATV menu option to the TV mode.  
When shipped from the factory, this menu option is in the CATV mode.

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/VCR 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.
