LOADING AND UNLOADING THE CASSETTE TAPE
Video cassette tapes can be loaded into your new VCR as long as the VCR is plugged into a power source. Even if the VCR
power switch is turned off, loading a cassette will automatically cause it to turn on. Use only video cassette tapes marked V
Use only standard grade VHS cassette tapes for reliable video recording. Please do not use Pro, Hi-Fi and High Grade tapes, as
damage to the video heads may occur.
Do not use an E-240 tape when recording in 48H - 168H or 0H mode.
LOADING
1 To position the cassette properly before inserting it in the cassette slot,
hold the cassette so that the long narrow edge with the contents label
faces towards you. The other long narrow edge is hinged and should face
towards the VCR. The clear plastic window that shows the video tape
should face upward.
2 Gently insert the videotape into the cassette slot to a point where the VCR
automatically retracts the cassette.
•
When you insert the videotape, be sure to orient it squarely to the slot.

Your new VCR has a protection circuit which will eject the tape if it is loaded
improperly. If the VCR ejects the tape you are trying to load, remove it
completely and check that the long narrow edge with the contents label is
facing towards you and that the clear plastic window that shows the video
tape is facing upwards. Then try again.

Your VCR will eject a video cassette even if it is in STANDBY mode. When the EJECT button is pressed, the VCR will automatically turn
on, eject the tape and turn off. It is not possible to eject a tape whilst recording without first pressing the STOP button. A tape cannot
be ejected when the VCR is locked.
PREVENTING ACCIDENTAL ERASURE
Video cassettes come with an erasure prevention tab which, when removed,
prevents the tape's contents from being erased or recorded over. A cassette
without the erasure prevention tab will automatically be ejected from your VCR
if you attempt to record on it.

• We recommend that any torn or broken cassette tape requiring repair should
be taken to professionals who specialise in such procedures. The adhesives
on many common types of tape could damage the head of your VCR.
