Thank you for buying a Philips video recorder.
This video recorder is one of the most sophisti-
cated and easy-to-use video recorders (VCR) on
the market. Please take the time to read this
operating manual before using your video
recorder. It contains important information and
notes regarding operation. The video recorder
should not be turned on immediately after
transportation from a cold to a hot area or vice
versa, or in conditions of extreme humidity. Wait
at least three hours after transporting the device.

become acclimatised to its new environment

may only be used with a suitable adapter.
