CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your Optimus Model 29 13” Color TV with Built-
In VHS VCR/Model 30 20” Color TV with Built-In
VHS VCR is an example of superior design and
craftsmanship. The following suggestions will
help you care for your TV/VCR so you can enjoy
it for years.
Keep the TV/VCR dry. If it gets
wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liq-
uids can contain minerals that
corrode electronic circuits.
Use and store the TV/VCR only
in normal temperature environ-
ments. Temperature extremes
can shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries, and
distort or melt plastic parts.
Use only fresh batteries of the
recommended size and type in
the remote control. Always re-
move old or weak batteries. They
can leak chemicals that can dam-
age electronic circuits.
Handle the TV/VCR gently and
carefully. Dropping it can dam-
age circuit boards and cases,
and cause it to work improperly.
Keep the TV/VCR away from
dust and dirt, which can cause
premature wear of parts.
Wipe the TV/VCR with a damp
cloth occasionally to keep it look-
ing new. Do not use harsh chem-
icals, cleaning solvents, or strong
detergents to clean it.
Modifying or tampering with the TV/VCR’s inter-
nal components can cause a malfunction and
might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC
authorization to operate it. If your TV/VCR is not
performing as it should, take it to your local Ra-
dioShack store for assistance.
THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
Your TV/VCR might cause TV or radio interfer-
ence even when it is operating properly. To de-
termine whether your TV/VCR is causing the
interference, turn off your TV/VCR. If the inter-
ference goes away, your TV/VCR is causing it.
Try to eliminate the interference by:
• Moving your TV/VCR away from the
receiver
• Connecting your TV/VCR to an outlet that
is on a different electrical circuit from the
receiver
• Contacting your local RadioShack store for
help
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the
FCC requires that you stop using your TV/VCR.
RESETTING THE TV/VCR’S
MEMORY
You can clear all settings from the TV/VCR’s
memory at once. This is handy if you want to
load new channels into the TV/VCR’s memory.
To reset the TV/VCR’s memory, eject the cas-
sette tape (if loaded), then press and hold down
both
PLAY/REPEAT and REW on the front of the
TV/VCR for at least 5 seconds. The TV/VCR
shuts itself off, and the settings are erased.
