WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR OTHER MOISTURE. To avoid electrical shock, do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

If the power supply cord (power cord) of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced.

Location

For safe operation and satisfactory performance of your GB VCR, keep the following in mind when selecting a place

for its installation:

•Shield it from direct sunlight and keep it away from sources of intense heat.

•Avoid dusty or humid places.

•Avoid places with insufficient ventilation for proper heat dissipation. Do not block the ventilation holes of the VCR. Do not place the unit on a carpet because this will block the ventilation holes.

•Install the VCR in a horizontal position only.

•Avoid locations subject to strong vibrations.

•Avoid moving the VCR between cold and hot locations (see “Moisture Condensation Problems”, this page).

•Do not place the VCR directly on top of the TV, as this may cause playback or recording problems.

Avoiding Electrical Shock and Fire

•Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.

•Do not pull on the power cord.

•If any liquid is spilled on the VCR, unplug the power cord immediately and have the unit inspected at a factory-authorised service centre.

•Do not place anything directly on top of this VCR.

CAUTION: Do not put your hand or other objects in the cassette loading slot because of risk of injury or accident. Be sure to keep small children away from the VCR.

Moisture Condensation Problems

Cause:

When the VCR is first installed, moved from a cold area to a warm area or placed in a location with high humidity, dew (moisture) may form in the unit. The Dew indicator (À) blinks. If you operate the VCR with dew inside, damage may result.

Prevention:

1Make all necessary connections.

2Plug the power cord.

3Do not operate the VCR for approximately 2 hours.

When the VCR reaches room temperature, the Dew indicator (À) will turn off and the VCR will be ready to operate.

Power on/stand-by mode

The power on/stand-by mode is selected by pressing the STANDBY/ON button.
