recommended by the manufac-
turer. An appliance and cart com-
bination should be moved with
care.
е
EJ
ре
PORTABLE CART WARNING
е
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces тау
cause the appliance and cart combination to overtum.
Ventilation-Slots and openings in the cabinet and the
back or bottom are provided for ventilation and to ensure
reliable operation of the TV/VCR and to protect it from
overheating, these openings must not be blocked or cov-
ered. The openings should never be blocked by placing
the TV/VCR on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface.
This TV/VCR should never be placed near or over
radiator or heat register. This TV/VCR should not 9
placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack
unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufac-
turer's instructions have been adhered to .
Power Sources-This TV/VCR should be operated only
from the type of power source indicated on the marking
label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to
your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power
company. For TV/VCRs intended to operate from battery
power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
. Grounding or Polarization-This TV/VCR is equipped
with a polarized alternating-current line plug(a plug hav-
ing one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into
the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If
you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. Ifthe plug should still fail to fit, contact
your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
. Power-Cord Protection-Power-supply cords should be
routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or — 9
pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying
particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience recep-
tacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

VISUAL SEARCH (SP/LP/SLP MODE)
You may view a video tape at a high speed in either a
forward or reverse direction. This feature is useful in
finding or skipping over a particular scene on a tape.
Forward Direction:
When in the Play mode, press F.FWD button to view
the tape at a fast speed in the forward direction. The
sound will be muted.
Reverse Direction:
To view the tape at a fast speed in the reverse direc-
tion, press REW button. The sound will be muted.
Press PLAY button to return to normal playback.
NOTE: The picture will not be as good as in normal
playback during Visual Search.
SUPER HIGH SPEED SEARCH
(LP/SLP MODE)
For Visual Search in super high speed:
1) Press either F.FWD or REW button while the unit is
in the Play mode.
2) Release button.
3) Depress it again. The unit will now search in super
high speed.
Press PLAY button to return to normal playback.
NOTE: Tapes recorded in the SP or LP mode will dis-
play a noise bar on the TV/VCR screen and the picture
may revert to Black and White. This is normal.
STILL PICTURE DURING PLAYBACK
If you press PAUSE/STILL button during the Play
mode, the picture will "freeze" on the TV/VCR screen.
You may use this feature to study a particular scene.
(Only tapes recorded in the SLP mode will show the
least amount of lines.)
Press PLAY button to continue playback.
NOTE: The TV/VCR will automatically switch to the
Stop mode, if it is left in the Pause/Still mode for more
than five minutes.
NOISE CANCELLING
If you use the PAUSE/STILL button to freeze the pic-
ture during playback with tapes recorded in the SLP
mode, usually there will be video "noise bars" on the
TV/VCR screen.
This is normal, however, this TV/VCR has a special
feature that allows you to reposition or reduce the lines.
Each time you press PAUSE/STILL button the lines
will change position on the TV/VCR screen. This en-
ables you to see the picture in its entirety without dis-
tracting noise lines.
If the tape was originally recorded in the SP or LP mode,
the still picture may, in addition to the "noise bars",
revert to black and white. This is normal.
