•

WHAT IS MOISTURE CONDENSATION?

When a cold liquid is poured into a glass, for example, water vapor in the air will condense on the surface of the glass. This is called moisture condensation.

•

MOISTURE WILL CONDENSE ON THE UNIT IN

THE FOLLOWING CASES:

• When you move the unit from a cold to a warm place.

• After heating a cold room or under

extremely

humid conditions.

•

WHEN YOU EXPERIENCE THE ABOVE CONDI-

TIONS,

"DEW*' appears on the screen and all the function buttons except the EJECT button (or the STOP/

EJECT button on the unit) are made non-operational to protect the video heads.

In this case, eject the video cassette, leave the unit turned on and let it remain at room temperature until moisture condensation disappears.

Depending on the surrounding conditions, this may take two or three hours.

• If you cause a static discharge when touching the unit, and the unit fails to function, simply unplug the unit from the wall outlet, wait 10 minutes and plug it back in. The unit should return to normal operation.

Cord (not supplied)

Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the VHF/UHF antenna.

Outdoor antennas are recommended for

best

results.

The most common types of television interference are shown

below. If one of these symptoms

appear when the TVNCR is connected to a Cable TV system, the disturbance may be caused by the local

Cable TV company broadcast.

IGNITION

Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, the picture may flutter or drift. Usually interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps or

AC powered too_s and appliances such as drills or hair dryers.

GHOSTS

Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two

paths. One is the direct path and the other is reflected by tall buildings, hil_s or other large objects.

Changing the direction or position of the antenna may

improve

the reception.

,,

SNOW

If the TV/VCR is located far from the TV station, in a fringe reception area where the signal is weak, small dots may appear in the picture.

If the signal is extremely weak, the installation of a larger external antenna may be necessary.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE

(RFI)

Caused by two_way radios, this type of interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks in the picture.

Some cases may cause a loss of contrast in the picture.

Changing the direction and position of the antenna or installing an RFI filter may improve the picture.

PICTURE SIZE VARIATION

A slight picture size variation is normal when you adjust the

CONTRAST or BRIGHTNESS settings.

ICARE AND MAINTENANCE

TO prevent fire or shock hazard,

disconnect

the TV/VCR from the AC power sources before cleaning.

The finish on the cabinet may be cleaned with mild soap and a soft, damp cloth and cared for as other furniture.

Use caution when cleaning or wiping the plastic parts.

I

IVIDEO HEAD CLOGGING

The video heads are the means by which the TV/VCR reads the picture from the tape during p_ayback, in the unlikety event that the heads become didy 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 the heads require cleaning use a high quality head cleaniog system or have them cleaned professionally.

I

Good Picture Snowy Picture

IVIDEO HEAD CLEANING

Video head c_eaniog is needed when the p_ayback 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 high quality head cleaning system or have them cleaned professionalty.

If playing a head cleaning tape in the

VCR once does not improve the picture, p_ay it several times before requesting service.

I

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR

SERVICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING THE TOP COVER.

NOTES:

• Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced when they fail to produce clear pictures.

• To he_p prevent video head clogging, use only good quality VHS tapes.

Discard worn out tapes.
