IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1.Read instructions — All the safet y and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is oper- ated.

2.Retain Instructions — The safet y and operating instruc- tions should be retained for future reference.

3.Heed Warnings — All warnin gs on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.

4.Follow Instructions — All operatin g and use instructions should be followed.

5.Cleaning — Unplu g the VCR from the wall outlet before cleaning it. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol clean- ers. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

6.Attachments — Do not use attachments not recom- mended by the VCR manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

7.Water and Moisture — Do not use this VCR near water

— for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool.

8.Accessories — Do not place this VCR on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The VCR may fall, causing serious injury to someone and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the VCR. Any mounting of the appliance should follow the manufacturer’s instructions and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care.

Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause an appliance and cart combination to overturn.

This VCR should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This VCR should not be placed in a built- in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.

10.Power Sources — This VCR should be operated onl y from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. For VCRs intended to operate from battery power or other sources, refer to the operating instruc- tions.

11.Grounding and Polarization — This 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. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

12.Power-Cord Protection Power-suppl y cords should be routed so they are not likely to be walked on or 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.

13.Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the VCR, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.

Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, ground- ing of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and require- ments for the grounding electrode.
