plugged into an outlet. Even if the VCR is turned off, loading a
tape will automatically cause it to turn on. Use only video
cassette tapes marked

Important notice:
• Use high grade (HG) tapes for super resolution
recording. We recommend to use S-VHS tapes for

improperly. If the VCR ejects the
tape, remove it completely and

Preventing accidental erase
Tapes come with an erase prevention tab
which, when removed, prevents the
tape’s contents from being erased or
recorded over. If the tape you insert in
the VCR has the erase prevention tab
removed, your VCR will automatically
eject it if you attempt to record on it.
Note
•
We recommend that you take any broken or torn tapes to a
professional for repair. The adhesives on many common
types of tape could damage the head of your VCR.
Recommended number of tape use
It is recommended that the cassette tape be replaced with a new
one depending on the recording time mode and type of tape
used. Providing TAPE LENGTH of FIRST TIME SET UP menu is
set to the same type the tape you use.
