13.Outdoor Antenna grounding-If an outside antenna or  
cable system is connected to the TV/VCR, 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,  
ANSI/NFPA No. 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. (Fig. A)  
19.Damage Requiring Service-Unplug this TV/VCR from  
the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service per-  
sonnel under the following conditions:  
a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.  
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the  
TV/VCR.  
c. If the TV/VCR has been exposed to rain or water.  
d. If the TV/VCR does not operate normally by following the  
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are  
covered by the operating instructions, as improper adjust-  
ment of other controls may result in damage and will often  
require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore  
the TV/VCR to its normal operation.  
14.Lightning-For added protection for this TV/VCR 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 TV/VCR due to lightning and  
power-line surges.  
e. If the TV/VCR has been dropped or damaged in any way.  
f. When the TV/VCR exhibits a distinct change in perfor-  
mance-this indicates a need for service.  
15.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.  
20.Replacement Parts-When replacement parts are required,  
be sure the service technician has used replacement parts  
specified by the manufacturer that have the same character-  
istics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may  
result in fire, electric shock, injury to persons or other haz-  
ards.  
21.Safety Check-Upon completion of any service or repairs to  
this TV/VCR, ask the service technician to perform routine  
safety checks to determine that the TV/VCR is in proper  
operating condition.  
16.Overloading-Do not overload wall outlets and extension  
cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.  
17.Object and Liquid Entry-Never push objects of any kind  
into this TV/VCR through openings as they may touch dan-  
gerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in  
a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on  
the TV/VCR.  
22.Heat-This TV/VCR product should be situated away from  
heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or  
other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
18.Servicing-Do not attempt to service this TV/VCR yourself  
as opening or removing covers may expose you to danger-  
ous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to quali-  
fied service personnel.

For safe operation and satisfactory performance of  
your TV/VCR, keep the following in mind when  
selecting a place for its installation:  
Shield it from direct sunlight and keep it away  
from sources of intense heat.  
Avoid dusty or humid places.  
Avoid places with insufficient ventilation for proper  
heat dissipation. Do not block the ventilation holes  
at the top and bottom of the unit. Do not place the  
unit on a carpet because this will block the ventila-  
tion holes.

Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.  
Do not pull on the power cord when disconnecting  
it from an AC wall outlet. Grasp it by the plug.  
If, by accident, water is spilled on your unit, unplug  
the power cord immediately and take the unit to our  
Authorized Service Center for servicing.  
Do not put your fingers or objects into the  
TV/VCR cassette holder.  
Do not place anything directly on top of the unit.  
Install unit in a horizontal position.

which has moisture, it may damage the tape and  
TV/VCR. Therefore when the condensation occurs  
inside the unit, turn the POWER button on and allow  
at least 2 hours for the unit to dry out.  
ature differences are extreme.  
CAUTION:TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY

If your cable service supplies you with a converter  
box or if you use a satellite system, you can use the  
basic connection shown here.  
By using this connection you can also record scram-  
bled channels. However, channel selection must be  
made with the converter box or satellite box. This  
means that channels cannot be changed using the  
TV/VCR Remote Control. Unattended timer record-

new service called Extended Data Service (XDS).  
Then press the F.FWD/B or

NOTES:  
Auto clock setting only needs to be set once. But it  
can be done again if the clock’s time has become  
incorrect for some reason.  
If you choose [AUTO],  
the TV/VCR must search until the PBS channel is  
found. It must scan each channel for a couple of  
seconds to determine if that channel is transmitting  
the XDS signal.  
If the TV/VCR is connected directly to a cable  
converter box or satellite box, the local PBS station  
must be selected on the cable box itself, and the  
TV/VCR must be set to the output channel of the  
cable converter box or satellite box (usually chan-  
nel 3 or 4), to be able to set up or correct the clock  
automatically.  
if the time, that is automatically set by this selected  
PBS station is incorrect, it may not be your local  
PBS station, but one from a different time zone. Or  
there is a case that no channel is broadcasting the  
XDS signal in your area, as shown by no time. In  
these cases, you must manually enter the correct  
local PBS station, or set the clock manually and  
turn off the Auto Clock Setting feature.  
If you do not know what your local PBS station is,  
then follow “Manual Clock Settings” on page 16.  
The TV/VCR cannot control the channels of the  
cable converter box or satellite box.  
If you use a mobile connection, you cannot set the

normal.  
If the tape was originally recorded in SP or LP  
mode, the still picture will be black and white in  
addition to the “noise” lines.  
3 To stop playback  
Press the STOP button when play-  
back is completed.  
STOP  
This is not a fault of the machine, but is a by-  
product of the technology involved in producing

minutes, the TV/VCR will automatically switch to  
the Stop mode.  
TRACKING ADJUSTMENT

still picture may revert to black and white in addition  
to the “noise bars”. This is normal.
