Recording Prevention

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

1

To prevent recording, break off the tab with a screwdriver.

2

To allow recording, cover the hole with cellophane tape.

VCR maintenance

●Use only tapes with the mark. The use of other tapes may result in poor picture quality and excessive deposits on the video heads, which may not be covered by the warranty if dam- age occurs.

●Remove any light adhesive stick-on notes from the video cas- sette tape before putting the tape in the VCR. Removable labels can jam the VCR.

●Periodic maintenance is required to maintain your VCR’s excel- lent performance. This VCR has an Automatic Head Cleaner. However, the video heads will require replacement eventually. Only an authorized service center should perform this service.
