SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.
IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied, cut
off the mains plug and fit an appropriate type.
DANGER: The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed
immediately and disposed of in a safe manner.
Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket
outlet, as a serious electric shock may occur.
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:
IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue: Neutral
Brown:Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured
markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
—The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or
coloured black.
—The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or
coloured red.
Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three-pin plug.
Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:
—If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug.
—The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead and not simply over the lead wires.
This VCR/DVD combination unit is suitable only for connection to
the UK mains. The unit is fitted with a moulded 3-pin mains plug
with a 3-amp fuse. The unit does not have a mains power switch.
When connected to the mains, the unit will draw current at all times
to power the clock. Be sure to unplug the unit when it is not to be
used for several months.
The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 3A fuse.
Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked or and of
the same rating as above, which is also indicated on the pin face of the plug, must be used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.

Handling Precautions
•Hold the disc by the edges so the surface will not be soiled with
fingerprints. (A)
Fingerprints, dirt and scratches can cause skipping and distortion.
•Do not write on the label side with a ball-point pen or other writing
utensils.
•Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzine, thinner, static electricity
prevention liquids or any other solvent.
•Be careful not to drop or bend the disc.
•Do not install more than 1 disc on the disc tray.
•Do not try to close the disc tray when the disc is not installed
properly. (B)
•Be sure to store the disc in its exclusive case when not in use.
Then store upright.
•Do not stick paper or adhesive labels to the disc.
If the Surface is Soiled ( C)
Wipe gently with a soft, damp (water only) cloth.
When wiping discs, always move the cloth from the center hole
toward the outer edge.
(If you wipe the discs using a circular motion, circular scratches are
likely to occur, which will cause noise.)
If the playing surface of a disc is soiled or scratched, the Unit may
decide that the disc is incompatible and eject the disc tray, or it
may fail to play the disc correctly. Wipe any soiling off the playing
surface with a soft cloth.
If the Disc is Brought from a Cold to a Warm
Environment, Dew May Form on the Disc
Wipe the dew off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth before using the disc.
Improper Disc Storage
You can damage discs if you store them in the following places:
•Areas exposed to direct sunlight
•Humid or dusty areas
•Areas directly exposed to a heat outlet or heating appliance
Maintenance
•Be sure to turn the Unit off and disconnect the AC power cord
before maintaining the Unit.
•Wipe this Unit with a dry soft cloth.
If the surfaces are extremely dirty, wipe clean with a cloth which
has been dipped in a weak soap-and-water solution and wrung
out thoroughly and then wipe again with a dry cloth.
•Never use alcohol, benzine, thinner, cleaning fluid or other
chemicals. And do not use compressed air to remove dust.

Basic Connection
Caution:
•Be sure to turn off the Unit and equipment to be connected before connecting.
•Read through the operation manual for the equipment to be connected.
• Be sure that the colours of the jacks and plugs match up when using a VIDEO/AUDIO lead (commerially available) .
•Be sure to keep the Unit connection leads separate from the TV aerial lead when you install the Unit,
because it may cause electrical interference when you are watching television programmes.

The connection method differs depending on the type of TV.
The signal from ANTENNA OUT will only be the Television Signal. A scart lead MUST be used to view the units’

•You will not be able to hear all of the sound being output by the Unit if you use the VIDEO/AUDIO lead
shown above to a monaural TV that has only one AUDIO input jack.
•Be sure that the colours of the jacks and plugs match up when connecting the lead.
•Connect the Unit directly to the TV. If you attempt to view video on a TV connected via a VCR, the copy protection
function will scramble the picture.
•If you want to listen to the audio through audio equipment, connect only VIDEO lead to the TV.
