Do not place this unit on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table.  
The unit may fall, causing serious injury, and serious damage to the unit.  
8A. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops,  
excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart  
combination to overturn.  
9. VENTILATION  
Slots and openings in the cabinet back or bottom are provided for ventilation,  
to ensure reliable operation of the unit, and to protect it from overheating.  
S3125A  
These openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the unit  
on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This unit should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat  
source. This unit should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper  
ventilation is provided and/or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.  
10. POWER SOURCES  
This unit should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the rating plate. If you are not  
sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. For  
units intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.  
11. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION  
This unit is equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the  
other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert  
the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to  
replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug, if your unit is equipped  
with a 3-wire grounding-type plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a ground-  
ing-type power outlet. This too, is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact

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.  
19. DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE  
Unplug this unit from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following  
conditions:  
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.  
20. REPLACEMENT PARTS  
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified by  
the manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part.  
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.  
21. 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.  
22. WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING  
The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.  
23. HEAT  
The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other  
products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
24. DISC TRAY  
Keep your fingers well clear of the disc tray as it is closing. It may cause serious personal injury.  
25. CONNECTING  
When you connect the product to other equipment, turn off the power and unplug all of the equipment from

CONDENSATION  
Moisture will form in the operating section of the DVD/VCR if the player is brought from cool surroundings into a  
warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, the DVD/VCR's performance  
will be impaired.  
To prevent this, let the DVD/VCR 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 DVD/VCR is exposed to the breeze from an air  
conditioner. In such cases, change the location of the DVD/VCR.  
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.

Basic connections  
DVD/VCR TO TV CONNECTION  
After you have connected the antenna to the DVD/VCR, you must connect the DVD/VCR to the TV.  
Below are 3 common methods of connecting your DVD/VCR to a TV. Find the type of TV you are using and follow  
the connection diagram.  
This DVD/VCR has a single 75 ohm output for connection to a TV. If your TV has separate VHF and UHF antenna  
inputs (numbers 2 and 3 below), use a splitter to connect the DVD/VCR to the TV for VHF and UHF reception.

CATV (CABLE TV) connections  
Many cable companies offer services permitting reception of extra channels including pay or subscription channels.  
This DVD/VCR has an extended tuning range and can be tuned to most cable channels without using a cable  
company supplied converter box, except for those channels which are intentionally scrambled. If you subscribe to  
a special channel which is scrambled, you must have a descrambler box for proper reception.

CATV (CABLE TV) connections  
IMPORTANT: Make sure the TV/CATV menu option is set to the "CATV" mode.  
This DVD/VCR cannot receive scrambled programs since it does not contain a descrambler. In order to receive scrambled  
programs, your existing descrambler must be used. Descrambler boxes are available from cable companies. Consult  
your local cable company for more information concerning connection to their descrambler equipment. There are many  
ways to connect your DVD/VCR to a cable system. Below are six common methods of connection.

When you connect the optical digital cable (not supplied), remove the dust protection cap from the rear panel.  
When not using the optical digital cable, attach the dust protection cap to protect against dust.  
NOTES:  
The OPTICAL, COAXIAL, DVD AUDIO L/R, S-VIDEO and COMPONENT jacks are useful only for DVD section.  
On these connections, VCR functions can not be used and also the VCR MENUs don’t appear.  
VHS signal is output only from the composite jack (DVD/VCR VIDEO/AUDIO OUTPUT) and UHF/VHF OUT.  
When you make the connections above, do not set DOLBY DIGITAL to DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS to ON on the AV  
Amplifier. If you do, a loud noise will suddenly come out from the speakers, affecting your ears or causing the  
speakers to be damaged.  
Caution for the optical digital audio output connector: Do not connect to an amplifier (with an optical digital input  
connector) which does not contain a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder. Otherwise, any attempt to play DVDs may  
cause such a high level of noise that it may be harmful to your ears and damage your speakers.  
DTS audio will be output only from the COAXIAL or OPTICAL output. To hear DTS audio, DTS-Decoder is  
necessary.  
When playing DTS-encoded CDs, only noise will be heard from the speakers or analogue stereo outputs.  
Some DTS decoders which do not support DVD-DTS interface may not work properly with the unit.

Video head cleaning  
Video head clogging  
The video heads are the means by which the DVD/VCR 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 determined 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 DVD/VCR checked by qualified service personnel.

Snowy Picture  
NOTES: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR SERVICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING 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.
