Cleaning the VCR

Use a soft, dry, and clean cloth or dusting attachment of your vacuum cleaner to dust your VCR. Remove dust from the ventilation holes on the top, back, sides, and bottom of the cabinet.

Plastic surfaces are easily scratched and can be marred by alcohol and various solvents. Do not use any scouring agents, solvents, or abrasive products. Avoid excessive use of oil-based furniture polishes since the materials used in the cabinet will accumulate more dust. We recommend using a non-abrasive, anti-static cleaner and polisher.

If an object or liquid penetrates the VCR, unplug it immediately and have it checked by an authorized technician.
