Battery Packs

 

The battery packs are nickel-cadmium

 

or nickel metal-hydride batteries. Before

 

using the supplied battery pack or an

 

optional battery pack, be sure to read

 

the following cautions:

 

1. To avoid hazard . . .

 

.... do not burn.

 

.... do not short-circuit the terminals.

Terminals

.... do not modify or disassemble.
.... use only specified chargers.

 

2.To prevent damage and prolong service life . . ..... do not subject to unnecessary shock..... avoid repeated charging without fully discharging.

.... charge in an environment where temperatures are within the tolerances shown in the chart below. This is a chemical reaction type battery—cooler temperatures impede chemical reaction, while warmer temperatures can prevent complete charging.

.... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to high temperatures will increase natural discharge and shorten service life.

.... avoid prolonged uncharged storage.

.... remove from charger or powered unit when not in use, as some machines use current even when switched off.

NOTES:●It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after charging, or after use.Temperature Range Specifications

Charging ................ 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F) Operation .............. 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) Storage .................. –10°C to 30°C (14°F to 86°F)

●Recharging time is based on room temperature of 20°C (68°F.)●The lower the temperature, the longer recharging takes.

Cassettes

To properly use and store your cassettes, be sure to read the following cautions:

1. During use . . ..... make sure the cassette bears the S-VHS-C orVHS-C mark..... be aware that recording onto prerecorded tapesautomatically erases the previously recorded video and audio signals..... make sure the cassette is positioned properlywhen inserting..... do not load and unload the cassette

repeatedly without allowing the tape to run at all. This slackens the tape and can result in damage.

.... do not open the front tape cover. This exposes thetape to fingerprints and dust.
