Cautions:

door while the cassette holder is extending or
retracting.
• Be careful not to get your fingers caught in the
cassette holder.
• Do not apply force to the cassette holder except
when pressing the PUSH mark to close it.
• Do not tilt the VIEWCAM or hold it upside down
when you are inserting or removing a cassette. It
may damage the tape.
• Remove the cassette if you will not use the
VIEWCAM for a long period of time.
• If you do not correctly close the cassette holder
in step 3, the VIEWCAM's cassette protection
mechanism might eject the cassette. If this
happens, repeat the insertion procedure.
• Do not attempt to pick up the VIEWCAM by the
cassette compartment door.
Notes:
• If the battery power is too low, you may not be
able to eject the cassette. Replace the battery
pack with a fully charged one.
• See page 59 for more information on the video
cassette tapes for use with this VIEWCAM.
