pre-recorded tapes or discs or other published or broadcast 
material may infringe copyright laws.

For your safety

Do not remove outer cover.
Touching internal parts of the VCR is dangerous, and may

service personnel.

Inserting Remote Control 
Batteries

Insert the batteries with the 
polarity (

and

-

) correctly 

aligned.

Notes:

The service life of the batteries is approximately 1 year. 
However, it varies considerably depending on the frequency 
of use.
• When they are exhausted, replace them with two AA, UM3, 

or R6 size batteries.

• When the batteries are exhausted, remove them 

immediately and dispose them correctly.

• Do not mix old battery with new battery.
• Do not mix different battery types, i.e. Alkaline and 

Manganese.

• Do not use rechargeable (Ni-Cd) batteries.
• Do not heat or short-circuit the batteries.
• When you do not use the remote control for a long time, take 

out the batteries and store them in a cool, dry place.

This longrun head system enables approximately 8,000 hours 
of recording/playback in high quality images.
Newly developed head cylinder with narrower head windows 
and tapered cylinder design effectively protects heads from 
dust and prevents head clogging.
Plus, [Alumina] Head Cleaner further enhanced cleaning 
efficiency.
