For your safety (General)

Since this VTR is designed for metal tapes only, make sure that only the designated tapes are used. An or- dinary VHS tape cannot be used. Removal of the covers on electrical appliances for maintenance purposes may lead to electric shocks.

Personnel should therefore adhere strictly to the normal safety precautions.

Some customer-preference switches are located on printed circuit boards within the unit. Be sure to turn off the power prior to opening the unit, before changing the position of any switch, and especially before re- moving or reinserting any circuit board.

THIS APPARATUS MUST BE GROUNDED

To ensure safe operation the three-pin plug must be inserted only into a standard three-pin power outlet (socket) which is effectively grounded through normal household wiring.

Extension cords used with the equipment must be three-core and be correctly wired to provide connection to the ground. Incorrectly wired ex- tension cords can be extremely hazardous.

The fact that the equipment operates satis- factorily does not imply that it is grounded, and the installation is not necessarily safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective grounding of the equipment or power outlet (socket), please consult a qualified electrician.

CAUTION:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD AND ANNOYING INTERFERENCE, USE THE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES ONLY.

CAUTION:

THE AC OUTLET (MAINS SOCKET) SHALL BE INSTALLED NEAR THE EQUIPMENT AND SHALL BE EASILY ACCESSIBLE.

CAUTION:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD, REFER MOUNTING OF THE OP- TIONAL BOARD AND CHANGE OF THE SWITCH SETTING INSIDE THE UNIT TO AU- THORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

Operating precaution

Operation near any appliance which generates strong magnetic fields may give rise to noise in the video and audio signals. If this should be the case, deal with the situation by, for instance, moving the source of the magnetic fields away from the unit before operation.
