Model code, which is necessary in previous model. STEP4.LINE-IN SETTING & ACTIVATE PLUG-IN A.T.P. (FOR EXCEPT NV-FJ630A) 1. Press the Channel up and down keys simultaneously for more than 3 seconds, under the condition of the no tape is in the unit.
Page 6
STEP5.PERFORM THE PG SHIFTER ADJUSTMENT Refer to the Electrical Adjustment Procedures. 2.2. CAUTION FOR AC MAINS LEAD (NV-FJ630BD) 2.3. HOW TO REPLACE THE LITHIUM BATTERY 2.3.1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION There is a RAM in the IC6001, which is backing up the following data by using the power source of B6001 (Back-up Battery) and C2013 (Back-up Capacitor: Back-up time is approximately 30 minutes).
Page 7
NOTE: The lithium battery is a critical component (Manufactured by Panasonic.) It must never be subjected to excessive heat or discharge. It must therefore only be fitted in equipment designed specifically for its use. Replacement batteries must be of the same type and manufacture.
Page 8
2.4.1. CAUTION FOR AUTO TUNING PROCEDURE Auto Tuning will start by the following procedure. 1. Connect the DIN-RF Cable. 2. Connect the AC Mains Lead. 3. Turn on the VCR. Auto Tuning will start. Auto Tuning search for TV stations from VHS minimum to UHF maximum and memorizes every tuned program position.
Page 9
4. If the VCR starts playback during Auto Tuning, Auto Tuning will stop halfway. The VCR should be reset and restart by the item 2 in order to execute Auto Tuning. 5. To cancel Auto Tuning Mid-operation, press POWER During Auto Tuning (The VCR is turned off).

B. Connect three batteries (1.5V spec.) to the Loading Motor in series for supplying 4.5V to rotate the Loading Motor following Fig. S2 Fig. S2 C. Stop unloading just before unloading would be completed as shown in Fig. S3 Fig. S3 D.
Page 11
E. Rotate the S-Reel by a small minus screwdriver (Fig. S5 ) to remove the tape slacks as shown in Fig. S6 Fig. S5 Fig. S6 F. Then unload again to remove the cassette tape as shown in Fig. S7 Fig.
Page 12
3. Removal by manual operations after uninstalling the mechanism. A. Disconnect the AC plug, and remove the Top Panel, Front Panel and the Mechanism by referring the Disassembly Procedures. B. Remove the Screw (S1) and remove the Loading Motor both shown Fig.
Page 13
E. Rotate the Main Cam Gear counter-clockwise again (Fig. S9 ) to remove the cassette-tape as shown in Fig. S7 F. Set the Position Switch to EJECT POSITION certainly as shown in Fig. S10 Fig. S10 G. Install the Loading Motor and tighten screw (S1) as shown in Fig.
Page 14
Handle the Cylinder Flexible Card with care. When it damaged, you should replace it with a new Cylinder Unit. 3. Remove a red Screw (S2) and 2 gold Screws (S3) to remove the Cylinder Unit shown in Fig. S11 Fig. S11 NOTE: When reassembling, perform the steps in the reverse order, and perform the PG SHIFTER ADJUSTMENT certainly after CYLINDER UNIT REPLACEMENT.

10.3. SUPPLY AND TAKE-UP SENSORS Supply and Take-up phototransistors are used to sense the beginning and end of tape. The tapes has transparent leaders enter the tape transport path, they allow infrared light from the sensor LED to reach either one of the tape end sensors (phototransistor).
10-5. DEW SENSOR If excessive moisture or condensation is present inside the machine (an internal humidity of more than 98%) the unit will stop if running. Until the moisture level decreases only the Eject mode will operate. To sense the humidity, a dew sensor is used. The sensor is a special variable resistor, which change resistance ambient humidity.

10-6-3. Detecting reel lock During tape running such as PLAY, CUE/REV or FF/REW, if reducing tape speed or reel mount stop is detected, these are recognized as reel lock. In this case, in order to protect tape and capstan driver, switch the VCR mode to STOP, or switch the tape running drive to capstan drive from reel drive.

10-6-4. Detecting cylinder lock When cylinder Error in starting or lock in modes that cylinder rotates, such as PLAY, CUE/REV or FF/REW is detected, following actions are performed to protect tape. Cylinder condition Lock detection Starting When the rotation has not reached the fixed rotation speed within 5 sec. after stop condition, starting error is detected and the unload starts up to DOWN position keeping VCR mode.
