Erase Protection

Video cassettes have record tabs to ensure that recordings are not erased accidentally.

1

To prevent accidental erasure, break off the tab with a screwdriver.

2

To record again, cover the hole with cellophane tape.

VCR Maintenance

•Remove any light adhesive stick-on notes from the video cassette before putting the cassette in the VCR. Removable labels can jam the VCR.

•Periodic maintenance is required to maintain your VCR’s perfor- mance. Your VCR has an automatic head cleaner, but the video heads eventually will require cleaning or replacement. Cleaning or replacement of the video heads should be performed only by an authorized service center.
