Why does my on-screen display show “Error”?

This indicates a problem with the VCR tape mechanism. Turn the power off and on again to reset. If this does not clear the error, unplug the VCR from the power outlet and inspect both tape slots for foreign objects, or for jammed or crooked tapes.

Why can’t I eject a tape using my remote?

•Make sure Remote Eject is turned on in the Dual-Deck Features menu.

•If you have programmed scenes for editing in the 8-Scene Edit List, you cannot eject the tape in Deck 1 with the remote control. This protects you from losing your scene programming. You can either clear the scenes from the Edit List or press Stop/Eject on the front panel, which erases the scenes automatically.

Why can’t I reset the Deck 1 tape counter?

If you have programmed scenes for editing in the 8-Scene Edit List, you cannot reset the Deck 1 tape counter. This protects you from losing your scene programming. You can either clear the scenes from the Edit List or press Stop/Eject on the front panel, which erases the scenes automatically.

Why doesn’t my VCR work?

•A strong static electricity shock or other unforeseen circumstances may cause the control system of your Dual-Deck VCR to lock up. To reset the control system, first unplug the power cord from the wall outlet for 10 seconds and plug it in again.

•If this doesn’t restore all operations to normal, unplug the VCR again for 15 minutes. You will then need to reset the clock (if the clock is still set, you haven’t unplugged it long enough).

•If these steps do not correct the problem, the Dual-Deck VCR must be serviced by an authorized service center.
