equipment to rain or moisture.
FCC Warning: Any unauthorized changes or modifications to this
equipment void the user’s authority to operate it.
This TV/VCR, equipped with a High Quality (HQ) system, is com-

Philips Consumer Electronics Company recommends that
you use only video cassette tapes that have been tested and
inspected for use in two, four, six, and eight hour VCRs, and
which are labeled with the mark. The use of tapes that
have not been inspected for use in two, four, six, and eight hour
VCRs may result in poor picture quality and excessive deposits on
the video heads, which may not be covered by the warranty if
damage occurs.
