SAFEGUARDS, WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND CAREObserve the following WARNINGS before installing and using this product. Follow all
warnings and instructions marked on the VCR.
Instructions
Read all the safety and operating instructions before operating the VCR. Keep the
instructions for future reference. Follow all operating and use instructions. Heed all
warnings on the equipment and in the operating instructions.
Tapes
Only video cassette tapes with the VHS mark may be used with this model.
Power Source and Power Cord
Do not damage the power cord—it may cause fire or shock hazard. Route the cord so it will
not be walked on or pinched by items placed on or against it. Pay particular attention to the
cord at the wall plug or convenience receptacle and the point where it connects to the VCR.
When unplugging the power cord, grasp the plug and remove it carefully.
Installation/Servicing
Installation and servicing should be done by qualified service personnel only and conform
to all local codes. Do not try to service the VCR yourself. Opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards.
Damage Requiring Service
Unplug the VCR from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under
the following conditions:
•When the power cord or plug is damaged.
•If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the VCR.
•If the VCR does not operate normally when following the operating instructions.
Adjust only those controls covered by the operating instructions. Improper adjustment
of other controls may cause damage and will often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the VCR to normal operation.
•If the VCR was dropped or the cabinet damaged.
•When the VCR shows a distinct change in performance. This indicates a need for service.
Replacement Parts
Be sure the service technician uses only replacement parts Pelco recommends, or which
have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may cause
fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
Safety Check
When service or repair to the VCR is completed, ask the service technician to perform
safety checks to ensure it is in safe operating condition.
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 the VCR is moved from a cold room to a warm room or from outdoors to indoors
•When a cold room is heated quickly
•When the humidity is very high
Avoid using the VCR where cold air (such as from an air conditioner) will blow directly on it.
