13-1 Warning indicators

 

 

If the unit malfunctions during operation, the built-in self-diagnostics system identifies the problem and displays a warning

message on the monitor and/or the counter display. Also, the [AUTO OFF] indicator may be shown on the LCD. In this case,

turn the power off and then on again to restore operation. If the [AUTO OFF] indicator appears again, the VCR may require

repair or adjustment. Consult your local JVC dealer.

 

 

The VCR’s built-in microprocessor is susceptible to interference from externally generated noise or electro-magnetism. In this

case, turn the main power (AC and DC power supplies) off, turn on again and check the operation.
