Congratulations on purchasing your new VCR.
You can’t wait to get it working, but before you do, spare a few moments to read this brief introduction to the world of video recording. It may repay you handsomely in terms of improved results, and avoiding of costly mis- takes.
Positioning
Do not place the VCR directly on top of, or underneath, your TV set. Ensure that there is at least 20 cm between the VCR and the TV set, and that air can circulate freely through the ventilation openings of the VCR.
IMPORTANT
Please refer to relevant laws in your country.
