PRECAUTIONS

Safety

Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabi- net, turn off the unit and have it checked by quali- fied personnel before operating it any further.

To disconnect the mains lead, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the lead itself.

Installation

Choose a location in which air can pass through the ventilation holes in the bottom, top and back of the unit to prevent it from overheating.

Do not install the unit near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibrations or shock.

Do not place heavy objects or heat-generating objects on the VCR, or the cabinet could be dam- aged or the temperature inside the VCR could rise, which could cause a fault.

Never bring a magnet or magnetized object near the VCR because it will adversely affect the per- formance of the VCR.

Do not install the unit in an inclined position. The unit is designed for operation in a horizontal position.

Operation

Condensation

If you pour a cold liquid into a glass, water vapor in the air will condense on the surface of the glass.

This is the condensation of moisture. Condensation on the head drum, one of the most crucial parts of the VCR, will cause damage to the tape. The VCR should not be operated for at least 2 hours after being moved from a cold to a hot environment to avoid condensation from occur- ring on the head drum.

Cleaning

Be careful; when the surface of the case is wiped with a volatile agent such as benzine, alcohol, thinner, etc., or a chemically processed cloth, the surface finish may be degraded or its coating may peel off.

Repacking

It is wise to save the packing materials and box in case you ever need to ship or store your unit.
