For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as it was originally packaged at the factory. When setting up the unit The picture or sound of nearby electrical equipment may cause distortion during playback. When this occurs, position the unit away from the interfering devices, or turn off the unit after removing the disc. To keep the surface clean Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for a long period of time. They may leave marks on the surface. Cleaning discs Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor picture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out. Yes No Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for older vinyl records. Cleaning the Video Heads Playing poor quality or damaged tapes can contaminate the video heads. Use only high quality tapes in your DVD+VCR. Dirt which accumulates on the video heads may cause the picture to blur. If this happens, the video heads need to be cleaned. Purchase a non-abrasive head cleaning tape from your video dealer. Cleaning the unit To clean the cabinet Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface of the unit. To obtain a clear picture The DVD+VCR is a high-tech, precision device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn, the picture quality will be poor. Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the operating environment.) For details, please contact your nearest dealer. About Symbols About the symbol display " " may appear on the TV screen during operation. This icon means the function explained in this owner's manual is not available on that specific DVD video disc.

Set this display to the desired position when both MTS stereo and SAP signals are received. When only one of the MTS signal is received, the VCR automatically selects the corresponding receiving mode (Stereo or SAP) regardless of the selected position. For normal operation, the display should be in the STEREO position. The VCR will then record a STEREO program when available, and record a mono program IF the program is NOT IN STEREO. For weak STEREO and/or SAP broadcasting, changing the display to mono may give clearer sound. The BROADCAST TYPE is switched among STEREO, SAP, and MONO by pressing 1 or 2. 6 Press SETUP/MENU to return to the TV screen.
