PRECAUTIONS
Location
For safe operation and satisfactory performance of your
VCR, keep the following in mind when selecting a place
for its installation:
X Shield it from direct sunlight and keep it away from
sources of intense heat.
X Avoid dusty or humid places.
X Avoid places with insufficient ventilation for proper
heat dissipation. Do not block the ventilation holes of
the VCR. Do not place the unit on a carpet because
this will block the ventilation holes.
X Install the VCR in a horizontal position only.
X Avoid locations subject to strong vibrations.
X Avoid moving the VCR between cold and hot
locations (see "Moisture Condensation Problems",
this page).
X Do not place the VCR directly on top of the TV, as
this may cause playback or recording problems.
Avoiding Electrical Shock and Fire
X Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.
X Do not pull on the power cord when disconnecting it
from an AC wall outlet. Grasp it by the plug.
X If any liquid is spilled on the VCR, unplug the power
cord immediately and have the unit inspected at a
factory-authorised service centre.
X Do not place anything directly on top of this VCR.
Moisture Condensation Problems
Cause:
When the VCR is first installed, moved from a cold area
to a warm area or placed in a location with high
humidity, dew (moisture) may form in the unit. The Dew
indicator (4) blinks. If you operate the VCR with
dew inside, damage may result.
Prevention:
1
Make all necessary connections.
2
Plug the power cord into a 220 – 240 V AC outlet.
3
Do not operate the VCR for approximately 2 hours.
When the VCR reaches room temperature, the Dew
indicator (4) will turn off and the VCR will be ready
to operate.
Power on/stand-by mode
The power on/stand-by mode is selected by pressing
the STANDBY/ON button.

Stand-by mode
"Stand-by mode" is the condition in which only the time
is displayed.
Do not forget that even in the stand-by mode there is an
electrical voltage inside the VCR as long as it is
connected to a wall socket.
Disconnect the power cord from the wall socket if the
VCR is not to be used for a long time.
