'NEC - NATIbNAL ELECTRICALCODE
$2898A
13.Outdoor Antenna gi_0Undlng-lf an ' _' ' antenna
outside or
cable system is connected to the TV/VCR, be sure the
antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides information with respect to
proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit,
size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-dis-
charge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and re-
quirements for the grounding electrode. (Fig. A)
14.Lightning-For added protection for this TVNCR receiver
during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall
outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will
prevent damage to the TVNCR due to lightning and
power-line surges.
15.Power Lines-An outside antenna system Should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other
', electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such
power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna
system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touch-
ing such power lines or circuits as contact with them might
be fatal.
16.Overloading-Do not overload wall outlets and extension
cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
17.Object and Liquid Entry-Never push objects of any kind
into this TVNCR through openings as they may touch
dangerous voltage points or shortout partsthat could result
in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kindon
the TVNCR.
18.Servicing-Do not attempt to service this TV/VCR yourself
as opening orremoving covers may expose you to danger-
ous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to quali-
fied service personnel.

d. If the TV/VCR does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions, as improper adjust-
ment of other controls may result in damage and will often
require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore
the TVNCR to its normal operation.
e. If the TV/VCR has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f. When the TV/VCR exhibits a distinct change in perform-
ance-this indicates aneed for service.
20.Replacement Parts-When replacement parts arerequired,
be sure the service technician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer that have the same charac-
teristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions
may result in fire, electric shock, injury to persons orother
hazards.
21.Safety Check-Upon completion of any service or repairs
to this TV/VCR, ask the service technician to perform
routine safety checks to determine that the TV/VCR is in
: proper operating condition.

For safe operation and satisfactory performance of your
unit, keep the following in mind when selecting a place •
for its installation: •
• Shield it from direct sunlight and keep it away from
sources of intense heat.
• Avoid dusty or humid places.
• Avoid places with insufficient ventilation for proper
heat dissipation. Do not block the ventilation holes
at the top and bottom of the unit. Do not place the
unit on a carpet because this will block the ventilation
holes.
Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.
Do not pull on the power cord when disconnecting it
from an AC wall outlet. Grasp it by the plug.
If, by accident, water is spilled on your unit, unplug
the power cord immediately and take the unit to an
authorized Sears service center for servicing.
Do not put your fingers or objects into the TV/VCR
cassette holder.
Do not place anything directly on top of the unit.
• Install unit in a horizontal position.
• Avoid locations subject to strong vibration.
• Do not place the unit near strong magnetic fields.
• Do not move the unit from a cold to a hot place or
vice versa.
Moisture condensation may occur inside the unit when
it is moved from a cold place to a warm place, or after
heating a cold room or under conditions of high humid-
ity. If a tape is played in a TV/VCR which has moisture,
it may damage the tape and TV/VCR. Therefore when
the condensation occurs inside the unit turn the POWER
button on and allow at least 2 hours for the unit to dry
out.

Set the clock accurately for proper automatic timer
recording. If the Public Broadcasting Station (PBS) is
available in you area, follow "AUTO CLOCK
SETTING". If it is not, follow "MANUAL CLOCK
SETHNG".
AUTO CLOCK SETTING
You can have the TV/VCR set the clock automatically
by using the Public Broadcasting Station (PB S) channel
in your area. Once you have set the clock by using the
following procedure, the TV/VCR will automatically
monitor the correct time and date being broadcast by the
PBS station in your area, using a new service called
Extended Data Service (XDS).
Make sure ...
• Confirm that the antenna connections are correct.
• The cable converter box must be turned on if your
TV/VCR is connected directly to it. (See NOTES)
• Use the remote control for the following steps.
NOTES:
• Auto clock setting only needs to be set once, but can
be done again if the clock's time has become
incon_t for some reason.
• If the TV/VCR is connected directly to a cable
converter box, the local PBS station must be selected
on the cable box itself, and the TV/VCR must be set
to the output channel of the cable converter box
(usually channel 3 or 4), to be able to set up and
automatically correct the clock.
The TV/VCR cannot control the channels of the
cable converter box.

• the TV/VCR must search through all the available
channels. It must scan each channel for a couple of
minutes to determine if that channel is transmitting
the XDS signal, because the PBS station will send
this signal only once every minute. This search could
take up to 2 hours. You may want to start this channel
search at night when the unit is not in use.
• if the time that is automatically set by this selected
PBS station is incorrect, it may not be your local PBS
station, but one from a different time zone. Or there
is a case that no channel is broadcasting the XDS
signal in your area, as shown by no time being set
even after an overnight search. In these cases, you
must manually enter the correct local PBS station, or
set the clock manually, turning off the Auto Clock
Setting feature.

• Electric motor brush noise.
• Weak snowy reception on TV Screen.
• Multiplex signal reception displaying picture ghosts
or airplane flutter.
• Playback of poorly recorded or worn VCR tapes.
If the TVNCR displays a black box
on the TV screen, this means that
