Notice on moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the drum assembly if the set is moved directly from a
cold to a warm location or if the set is used in a very humid place. This may cause
damage to the tape to adhered the head drum. To avoid this, take the following
precautions.
e When the set is moved directly from a cold to a warm location, be sure to remove
the cassette.
e Before inserting a cassette, set the POWER
switch to ON and check that the
HUMID indicator on the display window does not light. If it lights, wait until the
HUMID indicator goes off before inserting a cassette.
¢ If it seems that moisture has been condensed
in the VTR with the cassette inserted,
proceed as follows:
1 Set the CAMERA/VTR switch to VTR SAVE.
2 Turn on the unit.
3 When the HUMID indicator lights up, press the & EJECT button and remove the
cassette.
When the indicator does not light, there is no condensation.
Cleaning the heads
Use the BCT-5CLN cleaning cassette to clean the heads. Carefully read the instruction
manual furnished with the BCT-5CLN. Excessive or incorrect use of the cleaning
cassette may shorten the head life.
