Dew Warning
Moisture condensation may occur inside the unit when it is
moved from a cold place to a warm place, after heating up a
cold room, or under conditions of high humidity. Do not use
the VCR for at least 2 hours until it is dry inside.
Positioning
Do not place the VCR directly on top of, or underneath, your
TV set. Ensure that there is at least 20 cm between the VCR
and the TV set, and that air can circulate freely through the
ventilation openings of the VCR.
Before Using This Product
Video Cassette Tape
This VCR will operate with any cassette that bears the VHS
mark. For best results, we recommend the use of high-quality
tapes. Do not use poor quality or damaged tapes.
You can prevent accidental erasing of a recording by breaking
off the erase-prevention tab on the back edge of the cassette. If
you decide to record on the tape again, cover the hole with
plastic tape.
Two Different Tape Speeds
Before recording, select the tape speed : SP mode (Standard
Play) or LP mode (Long Play). The table below shows the
maximum recording/playback time using E-60, E-120, E-180
or E-240 tapes in each mode.
TV Colour System
Different countries use different television colour systems.
Tapes recorded in the PAL or NTSC system can be played
back on this unit. Usually, the picture on the TV screen will
be in black and white when you play back a tape that is
recorded in a different colour system.
Tapes recorded in the NTSC system can be played back on
this unit and a PAL system TV set. This feature is only
available in the SP mode. When playing back such tapes, the
picture may roll up or down, shrink vertically and black bars
may appear both at the top and bottom of the screen. Adjust
the vertical hold control on your TV, if the TV features this
control.
