Philips Consumer Electronics Company recommends that you use
only video cassette tapes that have been tested and inspected for
use in two, four, six, and eight hour VCRs, and which are labeled
with the mark. The use of tapes that have not been inspected
for use in two, four, six, and eight hour VCRs may result in poor
picture quality and excessive deposits on the video heads, which
may not be covered by the warranty if damage occurs.

Article 820-40 of the National Electrical Code, which provides

Welcome to your Video Cassette Player owner’s manual. This manual describes two Video Cassette
Players: the VPZ210AT and the VPZ215AT. These two players are exactly the same, except the VPZ215AT
has a DC power system and a dew sensor. The illustrations in this manual are of the VPZ215AT. The
VPZ210AT will not have the DC13.2V jack or the AC/DC POWER SYSTEM label shown in the illustra-
tions.
This manual has four sections: Setting Up Your VCP; Description of Controls; Operations; and Information
You May Need. The instructions explain all of the VCP’s features, which are listed below.
