Safety Check

Water/Moisture/Condensation
Do not use this VCR near water. It is designed for indoor use only and must not be installed where exposed to rain and moisture.
Do not place objects containing water, such as drinks, on top of the VCR.
If the VCR is exposed to a rapid increase in temperature (such as warming a cold room or after moving it from a cold location to a warm one), condensation may form on the tape transport mechanism inside the VCR. To prevent damage to the VCR or tapes, plug the VCR into the AC outlet and turn the power on for about two hours. Do not play back or record on the VCR during this time.
Condensation is likely to occur when:
1.The VCR is moved from a cold room to a warm room or from outdoors to indoors.
2.A cold room is heated quickly.
3.The humidity is very high.
Avoid using the VCR where cold air (such as from an air conditioner) will blow directly on it.
