Check the connections between the VCR, TV, antenna/cable, and Cable Box/Direct Broadcast System (if applicable). Details are on pages six-10.

Tape cannot be inserted.

Insert the tape, window side up, with the record tab facing you.

Make sure a tape isn’t already in the VCR by pressing the STOP/EJECT button on the VCR.

Gently push on the center of the tape when putting it in the VCR. Never force the tape into the VCR.

If a timer recording is programmed and the VCR power is off, you can not insert a tape without a record tab.

Tape cannot be removed.

Make sure the power plug is completely connected to a power outlet.

You have set a timer recording. Turn the VCR power on, then eject the tape. Be sure to insert a tape and turn off the power for your timer recording.

Unplug the VCR power cord for five minutes. Then, plug in the power cord again, then press the POWER button on the VCR. If the tape does not eject, press the STOP/EJECT button on the VCR three to five times. If the tape still does not eject, you may need to have an authorized servicer remove the tape.

VCR ejects the tape when the REC(ord)/OTR button is pressed or when the VCR power is turned off to set a timer recording.

Make sure the tape has a record tab. Details are on page five.

Poor reception

You may need to tune your TV again.

The motor (cylinder) rotates even when the VCR is in Stop mode.

To enable the quick play mechanism, the cylinder will rotate for about five minutes. This is normal. The quick play mechanism allows the tape mechanism to switch from Stop mode to Play mode in one second.

Direct Broadcast System Hookups

Watching one TV channel while recording another may not be possible if you have a DBS hookup. You may have to set your TV to channel 03 or 04, then make your channel selections at the DBS.

If you use audio and video cables to connect your DBS, VCR, and TV, you may have to put your VCR in Line Input mode (channel 001 or 002).

Line Input mode

If you accidentally enter Line Input mode (AV FRONT or AV REAR will appear on your TV screen briefly), press the CH(annel) o/p buttons or use the Number buttons to select another channel.

Cleaning the Video Heads

Your VCR automatically cleans the video heads each time you insert a tape. However, the heads may become dirty. If so, use a commercially-available head cleaner or have an authorized servicer clean the video heads. Eventually, the heads may need to be replaced.

The playback picture is too dim, too bright, or fluctuates in brightness.

Some programs may be broadcast with copyright protection technology in order to protect the rights of copyright owners. This technology is used on programs that are recorded on video tapes or Digital Video Discs (DVDs), as well as some programs broadcast by antenna/cable/satellite television channels. Programs broadcast with copyright protection technology may not record clearly. Likewise, if you play a tape that is a recording of a copyright protected program, the picture may not be clear. Tapes of copyright protected programs may have a picture that is dark or dim, or the brightness of the picture may fluctuate. Therefore, you should avoid recording or playing copies of copyright protected programs.
