Caution: To avoid damaging the VCP
mechanism, do not try to load a tape
while the DEW indicator is on.
If DEW turns on, disconnect the VCP’s
power for about 2 hours, then plug it back
in. If DEW turns off, you can proceed with
normal operation of your VCP. If DEW
turns on again, try unplugging it again, or
take it to your local Radio Shack for as-
sistance.
INSTALLING THE REMOTE
CONTROL’S BATTERIES
The remote control requires two AAA
batteries (not supplied) for power. For
the best performance and longest bat-
tery life, we recommend alkaline batter-
ies, such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-
558.
1. To remove the battery compartment
cover, slide it in the direction of the
arrow.
2. Place the batteries in the compart-
ment as indicated by the polarity
symbols (+ and –) marked inside the
compartment.
Caution: Use only fresh batteries of
the required size and type.
3. Replace the cover.
Notes:
• If you will not be using the remote
control for a month or more, remove
the batteries.
• You can use the remote control up
to a distance of about 23 feet (7
meters) in front of the VCP. If it does
not operate properly within this dis-
tance, replace the batteries.
Warning: Always dispose of old batter-
ies promptly and properly.
