1 POWER SOURCE CAUTION

Operate only from a power source indicated on the unit or in this manual. If necessary, have your Electric Utility Service Company or Video Products Dealer verify the power source in your home.

2 POLARIZED OR GROUNDING PLUG

As a safety feature, this product comes with either a polarized power cord plug (one blade is wider than the other), or a three-wire grounding type plug. POLARIZED PLUG CAUTION: This plug will only fit into an outlet one way. If you cannot fully insert the plug, try reversing it. If it still will not fit, have an electrician install the proper wall outlet. Do not defeat the safety feature by tampering with the plug. GROUNDING PLUG CAUTION: This plug will only fit into a three-hole grounding outlet. If necessary, have an electrician install the proper outlet. Do not defeat the safety feature by tampering with the plug. 3 POWER CORD Make sure power cords are routed so that they are not likely to have anything rest on them, roll over them, or be in the way of walking traffic. If an extension cord is used, make sure it also has either a polarized or grounded plug and that the cords can be securely connected. Frayed cords, damaged plugs, and damaged or cracked wire insulation are hazardous and should be replaced by a qualified service technician. Overloaded outlets and extension cords are fire hazards and should be avoided.

4 DO NOT BLOCK VENTILATION HOLES

Ventilation openings in the cabinet release heat generated during operation. If they are blocked, heat build-up inside the unit can cause failures that may result in a fire hazard or heat damage to cassettes or discs. For protection, follow these rules: a. Never cover ventilation slots or the unit while in use, or operate the unit when placed on a bed, sofa, rug, or other soft surface. b. Avoid built-in installation, such as a book case or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided.

Do not place the unit over or near heater or radiator, in direct sunlight, inside closed vehicles, in high temperature [over 104°F (40°C)], or in over 75% humidity. If the unit is suddenly moved from a cold place to a warm one, moisture may condense in the unit and on the tape causing damage. Never subject the unit to vibration, impact, or place it so that the surface is tilted as internal parts may be seriously damaged.

6 TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY

• Do not place unsecured equipment on a sloping surface.

• Do not place this unit on any support that is not firm, level, and adequately strong. The unit could fall causing serious injury to a child or adult and damage to the unit.

• 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.

• Carefully follow all operating instructions and use the manufacturer's recommended accessories when operating this unit or connecting it to any other equipment. FOR YOUR SAFETY, READ AND RETAIN ALL SAFETY

AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. HEED ALL

WARNINGS IN THE MANUAL AND ON THE UNIT

If the unit has been in storage or moved to a new location, refer first to the INSTALLATION section of these safeguards.

KEEP THE UNIT AWAY FROM WATER OR MOISTURE OF ANY KIND. 2 IF EQUIPMENT IS EXPOSED TO RAIN, MOISTURE, OR STRONG IMPACT, unplug the unit and have it inspected by a qualified service technician before use.

3 DURING AN ELECTRICAL STORM

During a lightning storm, whether indoors or outdoors, or before leaving the unit unused for extended periods of time, disconnect all equipment from the power source as well as the antenna and cable system.

4 WHEN THE UNIT IS PLUGGED IN

• Never expose the unit to rain or water. DO NOT OPERATE if liquid has been spilled into the unit. Immediately unplug the unit, and have it inspected by a service technician. Fire and shock hazards can result from electrical shorts caused by liquid contact inside.

• Never drop or push any object through openings in the unit. Some internal parts carry hazardous voltages and contact can cause electric shock or fire hazard. Do not put any foreign object on the disc tray.

• Avoid placing the unit directly above or below your TV set as this may cause electrical interference. Keep all magnets away from electronic equipment. 5 USING ACCESSORIES Use only accessories recommended by the manufacturer to avoid risk of fire, shock, or other hazards.

Unplug the unit. Then, use a clean, dry, chemically untreated cloth to gently remove dust or debris. DO NOT USE cleaning fluids, aerosols, or forced air that could over-spray, or seep into the unit and cause electrical shock. Any substance such as wax, adhesive tape, etc. may mar the cabinet surface. Exposure to greasy, humid, or dusty areas may adversely affect internal parts. SERVICE

1 DO NOT SERVICE THIS PRODUCT YOURSELF

If, after carefully following the detailed operating instructions, this product does not operate properly, do not attempt to open or remove covers, or make any adjustments not described in the manual. Unplug the unit and contact a qualified service technician.

2 IF REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE REQUIRED

Make sure the service technician uses only parts specified by the manufacturer, or those having the same safety characteristics as the original parts. The use of unauthorized substitutes may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

HAVE THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN PERFORM A SAFETY CHECK After any service or repairs to the unit, request the service technician to conduct a thorough safety check as described in the manufacturer’s service literature to ensure that the unit is in safe operating condition. Important Safeguards and Precautions

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the equipment, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against built up static charges and voltage surges. Part 1 of the Canadian Electrical Code, in USA

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.

KEEP ANTENNA CLEAR OF HIGH VOLTAGE POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS An outside antenna system should be located well away from power lines, electric light or power circuits and where it will never come into contact with these power sources if it should happen to fall. When installing an outside antenna, extreme care should be taken to avoid touching power lines, circuits or other power sources as this could be fatal. Because of the hazards involved, antenna installation should be left to a professional.

(See p. 52.)*2 Sound having 96 kHz sampling is converted into 48 kHz sampling when it is output from the DECK’s optical digital audio output connector. For your reference:

• Dolby Digital is a digital sound compression technique developed by the Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. Supporting 5.1-channel surround sound, as well as stereo (2-channel)sound, this technique enables a large quantity of sound data to be efficiently recorded on a disc.
• Linear PCM is a signal recording format used in CDs. While CDs are recorded in 44.1 kHz/16 bit, DVDs are recorded in 48 kHz/16 bit up to 96 kHz/24 bit.
• If you have a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you will obtain the full benefit of Pro Logic from the same DVD movies that provide full 5.1 channel Dolby Digital soundtracks, as well as fromtitles with the Dolby Surround mark. For information on Panasonic or Technics Dolby Pro LogicSurround Sound Decoders please contact your local dealer.

When DECK is connected to a Dolby Digital or DTS receiver, you can enjoy theater-quality audio in your home. [An optical digital audio cable (optional) is required when an optional Dolby Digital or DTS receiver is used.] Notes on connecting an optical digital audio cable (optional)

• Firmly connect the cable to the connector. Caution for optical digital audio output connector:

• When connecting an amplifier (with an Optical Digital Input Connector) which does not contain the Dolby Digital or DTS receiver, be sure to select “PCM” at “Dolby Digital” and “PCM” at “dts” of the Settings for DVD Operation “Audio Output” (see p. 52). 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.

• When a Dolby Digital/DTS receiver is connected, please select “Bitstream” at “dts” or “Dolby Digital” of the Settings for DVD Operation “Audio Output”. If “PCM” is selected, there will be stereo sound. (See p. 52.)

• Video CDs and CDs can be played as usual. Note:
