Introduction  
Precautions  
Notes on handling  
Notes on moisture condensation  
When shipping the unit, the original shipping carton  
and packing materials come in handy. For maximum  
protection, repack the unit as it was originally packed  
at the factory.  
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near  
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.  
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.  
The top and rear panels of the unit may become  
warm after a long period of use. This is not a  
malfunction.

n
s
Tape  
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.  
Head drum  
Moisture condensation occurs during the  
following cases.  
Notes on locating  
When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to a  
warm place.  
Place the unit on a level 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.  
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.  
Notes on cleaning  
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  
unit connected to the wall outlet and moisture  
condensation will seldom occur.

Cable TV connections  
This unit 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 TV company.  
For subscribers to basic cable TV service  
For basic cable TV service not requiring a converter/  
descrambler box, connect the cable TV 75 ohm coaxial cable  
directly to the Antenna jack on the back of the unit.

For subscribers to scrambled cable TV service  
If you subscribe to a cable TV service which requires the use of a converter/descrambler box, connect the  
incoming 75 ohm coaxial cable to the converter/descrambler box. Using another 75 ohm coaxial cable, connect  
the output jack of the converter/descrambler box to the antenna jack on the unit. Follow the connections shown  
below. Set the unit to the output channel of the converter/descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the  
converter/descrambler box to select channels.

If you subscribe to a cable TV service in which basic channels are unscrambled and premium channels require the  
use of a converter/descrambler box, you may wish to use a signal splitter and an A/B switch box (available from the  
cable TV company or an electronics supply store). Follow the connections shown below. With the switch in the “B”  
position, you can directly tune any nonscrambled channels on your unit. With the switch in the “A” position, tune your  
unit to the output of the converter/descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler box  
to tune scrambled channels.

Closed captions  
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.  
Closed captions  
Captions: This closed caption mode will display text on the screen in English 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 usually 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 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.  
For television programs broadcasting with closed captions, look in your TV guide for the closed captions symbol  
(CC).  
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.  
NOTICE OF POSSIBLE ADVERSE EFFECTS ON TV PICTURE DISPLAY  
Avoid displaying stationary images on your TV screen for extended periods of time. Fixed (non-moving) patterns or images (includ-  
ing but not limited to PIP/POP windows, closed captions, video game patterns, TV station logos, stock tickers, websites, and special  
formats that do not use the entire screen) can become permanently ingrained in the cathode ray tube(s) of the TV and cause subtle  
but permanent ghost images. This type of damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. See item 34 on page 4.

but not limited to PIP/POP windows, closed captions, video game patterns, TV station logos, stock tickers, websites, and special  
formats that do not use the entire screen) can become permanently ingrained in the cathode ray tube(s) of the TV and cause subtle  
but permanent ghost images. This type of damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. See item 34 on page 4.

See page 16 for details on connecting an HDMI or a DVI device to the TV’s HDMI input. If you  
connect a DVI device, you must also connect the analog audio cables to the HDMI audio IN  
jacks to hear audio (see page 16.) Set the HDMI audio input setting to “DVI” with this  
connection. If you connect an HDMI device and play media with digital audio output, set the  
HDMI audio input setting to “HDMI” with this connection to hear digital audio. If you connect an  
HDMI device but play media with analog audio output (for example, certain CDVs do not  
output digital audio), you must connect the analog audio cables to the HDMI audio IN jacks to  
hear audio (see page 16.) Set the HDMI audio input setting to “DVI” with this connection.

Video head clogging  
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 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, the  
unit need to check and clean by the quali-  
fied service personnel.

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.  
Before playback or recording, press COUNTER

Notes:  
DO NOTATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR SERV-  
ICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING THE REAR COVER.  
Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced

To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality
