  1. Outdoor Antenna grounding-If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV/DVD/VHS, 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)

  2. Lightning-For added protection for this TV/DVD/VHS 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/DVD/VHS due to lightning and power-line surges.

  3. 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.

  4. 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/DVD/VHS through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the TV/DVD/VHS.

  1. Servicing-Do not attempt to service this TV/DVD/VHS yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

  2. Damage Requiring Service-Unplug this TV/DVD/VHS 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 or frayed.

b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the TV/DVD/VHS.

c. If the TV/DVD/VHS has been exposed to rain or water.

d. If the TV/DVD/VHS does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions, as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the TV/DVD/VHS to its normal operation.

e. If the TV/DVD/VHS has been dropped or damaged in any way.

f. When the TV/DVD/VHS exhibits a distinct change in performance-this indicates a need for service.

  1. Replacement Parts-When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, injury to persons or other hazards.

  2. Safety Check-Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV/DVD/VHS, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks to determine that the TV/DVD/VHS is in proper operating condition.

  3. Heat-This TV/DVD/VHS product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.

VHF/UHF SEPARATE ANTENNAS

In some areas it will be necessary to use an outdoor antenna.

CABLE WITHOUT CONVERTER/DESCRAMBLER BOX

Use this connection if your cable system connects directly to your TV/DVD/VHS without a converter box.

By using this connection you can:

1) Use the TV/DVD/VHS remote to select channels.
2) Program one or more unscrambled channels for Automatic Timer Recording.

NOTE: This unit will ONLY record and view the same channel.

CABLE WITH CONVERTER/ DESCRAMBLER BOX OR SATELLITE BOX

If your cable service supplies you with a converter box or if you use a satellite system, you can use the basic connection shown in the illustration.

By using this connection you can also record scrambled channels. However, channel selection must be made with the converter box or satellite box. This means that channels cannot be changed using the TV/DVD/VHS Remote Control. Unattended timer recording is limited to one channel at a time.

Antenna/Cable Connections Continued on the Next Page.

TO RECORD A SCRAMBLED/UNSCRAM- BLED CHANNEL

  1. Set the TV/DVD/VHS channel selector to the output channel of the Cable Converter Box or Satellite Box. (Ex. CH3)
  2. Select the channel to record from your Cable Converter Box or Satellite Box.

Note to CATV system installer:

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

• Automobile ignition noise
• Electric motor brush noise
- Weak snowy reception on TV screen
- Multiplex signal reception displaying picture ghosts or airplane flutter.
- Playback of poorly recorded or worn VCR tapes.

V-CHIP SET UP

V-CHIP enables parents to prevent their children from watching inappropriate material on TV. V-CHIP reads the ratings for programming (except for news and sports programs, unedited movies on premium cable channels, and Emergency Broadcast System signals), then denies access to programming if the program's rating meets the limitations you select. In this case, "PROTECTED PROGRAM by ..." message appears on the TV screen. You can watch the protected program by entering access code (default 0000).

To block ratings, follow the steps below.

- Programming may be rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) or according to the Television Parental Guidelines. In order to block any inappropriate programming, set your limits in both places (MPAA RATING and TV RATING).

CLOSED CAPTION PROBLEM POSSIBLE REMEDY
My TV/DVD/VHS is showing captions that are misspelled.·You are watching a live broadcast and spelling errors made by the closed captioning production company may pass through uncorrected. A prerecorded program will not show any misspelled words because of the normal time available for editing the captions.
My TV/DVD/VHS will not show the text dialogue are common for live in its entirety or there is a delay of what is being said.·Captions that are delayed a few seconds behind the actual broadcast. Most captioning production companies can display a dialogue to a maximum of 220 words per minute. If a dialogue exceeds that rate, selective editing is used to insure that the captions remain up-to-date with the current TV screen dialogue.
My captions are scrambled with white boxes on the TV screen.·Interference caused by building, power lines, thunderstorms, etc. may cause scrambled or incomplete captions to appear.
My program guide listed a TV show as being closed captioned but none of the captions were displayed.·Broadcasters may at times use a time compression process to speed up the actual program so that additional advertising time can be given. Since the decoder cannot read the compressed information, captions will be lost.
My prerecorded video tape does not show any captions. The tape box mentions it being closed captioned.·The video tape was either an illegal copy or the tape duplicating company accidentally left out the captioning signals during the copying process.
My TV screen shows a black box on certain channels.·You are in the TEXT mode. Select CAPTION mode to CAPTION [OFF].
