Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
Sound
With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s sound-
track in the most accurate and realistic presentation
possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However,
you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the
audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds
and the quietest ones). Then, you may listen to a movie
at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set
DRC to On for this effect.
Digital Audio Output
Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options.
Set the DVD+VCR’s Digital Audio Output according to
the type of audio system you use.
DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM: Select DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM if
you connected the DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
jack to a Dolby Digital decoder (or an amplifier or other
equipment with a Dolby Digital decoder).
Stream/PCM: Select Stream/PCM if you connected the
DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to an amplifier
or other equipment with a DTS decoder, Dolby Digital
decoder or MPEG decoder.
PCM: Select when connected to a 2 channel digital
stereo amplifier. The DVD+VCR output sounds in the
PCM 2ch format when you play a DVD video disc
recorded with a Dolby Digital, MPEG1, or MPEG2
recording system.
Vocal
Set Vocal to On only when a multi-channel karaoke
DVD is playing. The karaoke channels on the disc will
mix into normal stereo sound.

5. A single session disc requires MP3 files in the first
track. If there is no MP3 file in the 1st track, it can-
not playback MP3 files. If you wish to playback MP3
files, format all the data in the disc or use a new
one.

PRODUCT SAFETY SERVICING GUIDELINES FOR VIDEO PRODUCTS
CAUTION : DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MODIFY THIS PRODUCT IN ANY WAY,
NEVER PERFORM CUSTOMIZED INSTALLATIONS WITHOUT MANUFAC-
TURER’S APPROVAL. UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS WILL NOT ONLY
VOID THE WARRANTY, BUT MAY LEAD TO YOUR BEING LIABLE FOR ANY
RESULTING PROPERTY DAMAGE OR USER INJURY.
SUBJECT : X-RADIATION
1. BE SURE PROCEDURES AND INSTRUCTIONS TO ALL SERVICE PER-
SONNEL COVER THE SUBJECT OF X-RADIATION. THE ONLY POTEN-
TIAL SOURCE OF X-RAYS IN CURRENT T.V. RECEIVERS IS THE PIC-
TURE TUBE. HOWEVER, THIS TUBE DOES NOT EMIT X-RAYS WHEN
THE HIGH VOLTAGE IS AT THE FACTORY SPECIFIED LEVEL. THE
PROPER VALUE IS GIVEN IN THE APPLICABLE SCHEMATIC. OPERA-
TION AT HIGHER VOLTAGES MAY CAUSE A FAILURE OF THE PIC-
TURE TUBE OR HIGH VOLTAGE SUPPLY AND, UNDER CERTAIN CIR-
CUMSTANCES, MAY PRODUCE RADIATION IN EXCESS OF DESIR-
ABLE LEVELS.
SERVICE WORK SHOULD BE PERFORMED ONLY AFTER YOU ARE
THOROUGHLY FAMILIAR WITH ALL OF THE FOLLOWING SAFETY
CHECKS AND SERVICING GUIDELINES. TO DO OTHERWISE,
INCREASES THE RISK OF POTENTIAL HAZARDS AND INJURY TO THE
USER.
WHILE SERVICING, USE AN ISOLATION TRANSFORMER FOR PROTEC-
TION FROM A.C. LINE SHOCK.
2. ONLY FACTORY SPECIFIED C.R.T. ANODE CONNECTORS MUST BE
USED. DEGAUSSING SHIELDS ALSO SERVE AS X-RAY SHIELD IN
COLOR SETS, ALWAYS RE-INSTALL THEM.
SAFETY CHECKS
AFTER THE ORIGINAL SERVICE PROBLEM HAS BEEN CORRECTED. A
CHECK SHOULD BE MADE OF THE FOLLOWING.
3. IT IS ESSNTIAL THAT SERVICE PERSONNEL HAVE AVAILABLE AN
ACCURATE AND RELIABLE HIGH VOLTAGE METER. THE CALIBRA
TION OF THE METER SHOULD BE CHECKED PERIODICALLY
AGAINST A REFERENCE STANDARD, SUCH AS THE ONE AVAILABLE
AT YOUR DISTRIBUTOR.
SUBJECT : FIRE & SHOCK HAZARD
1. BE SURE THAT ALL COMPONENTS ARE POSITIONED IN SUCH A WAY
AS TO AVOID POSSIBILITY OF ADJACENT COMPONENT SHORTS.
THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT ON THOSE MODULES WHICH ARE
TRANSPORTED TO AND FROM THE REPAIR SHOP.
4. WHEN THE HIGH VOLTAGE CIRCUITRY IS OPERATING PROPERLY
THERE IS NO POSSIBILITY OF AN X-RADIATION PROBLEM. EVERY
TIME A COLOR CHASSIS IS SERVICED. THE BRIGHTNESS SHOULD
BE RUN UP AND DOWN WHILE MONITORING THE HIGH VOLTAGE
WITH A METER TO BE CERTAIN THAT THE HIGH VOLTAGE DOES
NOT EXCEED THE SPECIFIED VALUE AND THAT IT IS REGULATING
CORRECTLY, WE SUGGEST THAT YOU AND YOUR SERVICE ORGA-
NIZATION REVIEW TEST PROCEDURES SO THAT VOLTAGE REGU-
LATION IS ALWAYS CHECKED AS A STANDARD SERVICING PROCE-
DURE. AND THAT THE HIGH VOLTAGE READING BE RECORDER ON
EACH CUSTOMER’S INVOICE.
2. NEVER RELEASE A REPAIR UNLESS ALL PROTECTIVE DEVICES
SUCH AS INSULATORS, BARRIERS, COVERS, SHIELDS, STRAIN
RELIEFS, POWER SUPPLY CORDS, AND OTHER HARDWARE HAVE
BEEN REINSTALLED PER ORIGINAL DESIGN. BE SURE THAT THE
SAFETY PURPOSE OF THE POLARIZED LINE PLUG HAS NOT BEEN
DEFEATED.
3. SOLDERING MUST BE INSPECTED TO DISCOVER POSSIBLE COLD
SOLDER JOINTS, SOLDER SPLASHES OR SHARP SOLDER POINTS.
BE CERTAIN TO REMOVE ALL LOOSE FOREIGN PARTICLES.
5. WHEN TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAKING TEST MEASUREMENTS IN
A PRODUCT WITH A PROBLEM OF EXCESSIVE HIGH VOLTAGE,
AVOID BEING UNNECESSARILY CLOSE TO THE PICTURE TUBE AND
THE HIGH VOLTAGE SUPPLY. DO NOT OPERATE THE PRODUCT
LONGER THAN IS NECESSARY TO LOCATE THE CAUSE OF EXCES
SIVE VOLTAGE.
4. CHECK FOR PHYSICAL EVIDENCE OF DAMAGE OR DETERIORATION
TO PARTS AND COMPONENTS. FOR FRAYED LEADS, DAMAGED
INSULATION (INCLUDING A.C. CORD). AND REPLACE IF NECESSARY
FOLLOW ORIGINAL LAYOUT, LEAD LENGTH AND DRESS.
5. NO LEAD OR COMPONENT SHOULD TOUCH A RECIVING TUBE OR
A RESISTOR RATED AT 1 WATT OR MORE. LEAD TENSION AROUND
PROTRUNING METAL SURFACES MUST BE AVOIDED.
6. REFER TO HV. B+ AND SHUTDOWN ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE SCHEMATIC AND DIAGRAMS
(WHERE USED).
6. ALL CRITICAL COMPONENTS SUCH AS FUSES, FLAMEPROOF
RESISTORS, CAPACITORS, ETC. MUST BE REPLACED WITH EXACT
FACTORY TYPES, DO NOT USE REPLACEMENT COMPONENTS
OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED OR MAKE UNRECOMMENDED CIR-
CUIT MODIFICATIONS.
SUBJECT: IMPLOSION
1. ALL DIRECT VIEWED PICTURE TUBES ARE EQUIPPED WITH AN INTE
GRAL IMPLOSION PROTECTION SYSTEM, BUT CARE SHOULD BE
TAKEN TO AVOID DAMAGE DURING INSTALLATION, AVOID
SCRATCHING THE TUBE. IF SCRATCHED REPLACE IT.
7. AFTER RE-ASSEMBLY OF THE SET ALWAYS PERFORM AN A.C.
LEAKAGE TEST ON ALL EXPOSED METALLIC PARTS OF THE CABI-
NET, (THE CHANNEL SELECTOR KNOB, ANTENNA TERMINALS. HAN-
DLE AND SCREWS) TO BE SURE THE SET IS SAFE TO OPERATE

SERVICING PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION : Before servicing the VCR+DVD covered by this
Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices
service data and its supplements and addends, read and fol-
low the SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. NOTE : if unforeseen cir-
cumstances create conflict between the following servicing
precautions and any of the safety precautions in this publi-
cations, always follow the safety precautions.
Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged
easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are
called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of
typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field
effect transistors and semiconductor chip components.
The following techniques should be used to help reduce the
incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.
Remembers Safety First:
General Servicing Precautions
1. Always unplug the VCR+DVD AC power cord from the AC
power source before:
(1) Removing or reinstalling any component, circuit board,
module, or any other assembly.
(2) Disconnection or reconnecting any internal electrical
plug or other electrical connection.
1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor compo-
nent or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any
electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known
earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commer-
cially available discharging wrist strap device, which
should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to
applying power to the unit under test.
(3) Connecting a test substitute in parallel with an elec-
trolytic capacitor.
Caution : A wrong part substitution or incorrect
polarity installation of electrolytic capacitors may result
in an explosion hazard.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES
devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such
as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or
exposure of the assembly.
2. Do not spray chemicals on or near this VCR+DVD or any
of its assemblies.
3. Use only a grouned-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder
ES devices.
3. Unless specified otherwise in this service data, clean
electrical contacts by applying an appropriate contact
cleaning solution to the contacts with a pipe cleaner,
cotton-tipped swab, or comparable soft applicator.
Unless specified otherwise in this service data, lubrication
of contacts is not required.
4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some
solder removal devices not classified a “anti-static” can
generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES
devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can
generate electrical charge sufficient to damage ES
devices.
4. Do not defeat any plug/socket B+ voltage interlocks with
whitch instruments covered by this service manual might
be equipped.
6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protec
tive package until immediately before you are ready to
install it. (Most replacement ES devices are packaged with
leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam,
aluminum foil, or comparable conductive material).
5. Do not apply AC power to this VCR+DVD and/or any of its
electrical assemblies unless all solid-state device heat
sinks are cerrectly installed.
6. Always connect test instrument ground lead to the
appropriate ground before connection the test instrument
positive lead. Always remove the test instrument ground
lead last.
7. Immediately before removing the protective material from
the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective
material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the
device will be installed.
Insulation Checking Procedure
Disconnect the attachment plug from the AC outlet and turn
the power on. Connect an insulation resistance meter(500V)
to the blades of the attachment plug. The insulation resis-
tance between each blade of the attachment plug and acces-
sible conductive parts (Note 1) should be more than 1M-
ohm.
Caution : Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or
circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.
8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged
replacement ES devices. (Normally harmless motion such
as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting
of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static elec-
tricity sufficient to damage an ES device.)
Note 1 : Accessible Conductive Parts including Metal pan-
els, Input terminals, Earphone jacks, etc.
