Step 2: Preparing the power supply (Continued)

The available playback time will be shorter depending on the conditions under which you use the VCR.

On the AC Adaptor

Use the nearby wall outlet (wall socket) when using the AC Adaptor. Disconnect the AC Adaptor from the wall outlet (wall socket) immediately if any malfunction occurs while using your VCR.

Do not use the AC Adaptor placed in a narrow space, such as between a wall and furniture.

Do not short-circuit the DC plug of the AC Adaptor or battery terminal with any metallic objects. This may cause a malfunction.

Even if your VCR is turned off, AC power (house current/mains) is still supplied to it while connected to the wall outlet (wall socket) via the AC Adaptor.

Set the date and time when using your VCR for the first time. If you do not set the date and time, the [CLOCK SET] screen appears every time you turn on your VCR.
