Precautions
Safety
• If anything falls into the cabinet, turn on the unit
and have it checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
Installing
• Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal
heat buildup.
• Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets,
etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that
may block the ventilation slots.
• Do not install the unit near heat sources such as
radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical
vibration or shock.
• Do not install the unit in an inclined position. It is
designed to be operated in a horizontal position
only.

• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a
warm location, moisture may condense inside the
unit and cause damage to the video head and
tape. If the moisture condensation occurs, the
DEW indicator on the front of the unit lights up
in red. In this case, let the mositure evaporate
until the indicator turns off. To avoid this, when
you first install the unit, or when you move it
from a cold to a warm location, wait for about
one hour before operating the unit.
