INSTALLING THE Ni-Cd BATTERY

The supplied Ni-Cd battery should be installed correctly before using the VCR.

1Unscrew the Ni-Cd battery compartment screw until the cover can be opened (the screw cannot be removed from the cover).

2Insert the battery in the support with the wires facing out.

3Checking for correct plug alignment, connect it to the connector on the VCR, then push the wires in, out of the way.

4Install the Ni-Cd battery compartment cover, then tighten the screw (make sure the cover does not pinch the wires).

Protection against power failure

In case of a power failure during recording, the Ni-Cd battery will power the VCR until all the memory contents are recorded onto the tape.

When the Ni-Cd battery reaches the end of its useful life, “b” will flash on the digital display and the buzzer will be heard.

The battery useful life may vary according to operating conditions, but it should normally last around 2 years.

WARNING:

œDo not short-circuit the battery pack terminals, and never try to disassemble or modify the battery pack.

œDo not throw it into a fire, as it may explode.

œDo not expose the battery to moisture.

œDo not drop or subject it to violent shock.

œDo not expose to dropping or splashing water.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

The EPA certified RBRC®Battery Recycling Seal on the nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery indicates SANYO is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle these batteries at the end of their useful life, when taken out of service in the United States or Canada. The RBRC program provides a convenient alternative to placing used Ni-Cd batteries into the trash or the municipal waste stream, which may be illegal in your area. Please call

1-800-822-8837 for information on Ni-Cd battery recycling and disposal bans/restrictions in your area. SANYO’s involvement in this program is part of our commitment to preserving our environment and conserving our natural resources.
