Care of the videocassette player (VCP)

Environmental extremes

Videocassette players subjected to harsh environmental conditions may be damaged or perform at less than maximum capability. To avoid these outcomes, avoid leaving the VCP:

•in extremely hot or cold temperatures.

•in direct sunlight.

•in high humidity.

•in a dusty environment.

•in locations where strong magnetic fields are generated.

•on a surface that is instable or subject to vibrations.

Temperature extremes

When the vehicle is parked under direct sunlight or in an extremely cold place for a long period of time, wait until the cabin temperature of the vehicle is at normal temperature before operating the system.

High/low temperature sensor circuit

•Excessively high or low temperatures may cause damage to the VCP.

•When the temperature of the VCP becomes too high or low, the temperature sensor circuit stops machine operation, ejects the cassette and the WAIT indicator illuminates. The lamp will remain illuminated until the system has returned to a safe operating temperature.
