IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
MOISTURE CONDENSATION
In the normal temperature, if you pour a cold liquid into a glass, water vapor in the air will condense on the surface of the glass. This is moisture condensation. The moisture condensation may occur inside of VCPs which, if used in this condition, will cause damage to the head and the tape.
When does the moisture condensation occur inside of the VCP?
When moving the VCP from a cold place to heated place.
Or the temperature of surroundings goes up due to room heating switched on.
Or moving the VCP suddenly from air conditioned room to a place of high temperature and/or humidity in summer may cause the dew indicator to light up. Do not use in this condition.
When the moisture condensation occurs inside of the VCP, NEVER insert the cassette into the cassette compartment. Remove the cassette, if loaded, by pressing the STOP/EJECT key. Only operate the VCP after the moisture condensation has completely dried out. Normally, it takes about 2 hours.

SERVICE

Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the set to normal operation.
–When the set exhibits a distinct change in performance, this indicates a need for service.
Servicing–Do not attempt to service the set yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Replacement of parts–When replacement of parts is required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

VIDEO HEAD CLEANING
VIDEO HEAD CLOGGING
The video heads enable the VCP to read video information pictures from the tape during playback.
In the unlikely event that the heads become clogged with dirt video playback will be impossible. This can easily be determined if, during playback of a known good tape, there is good sound, but the picture is extremely snowy. If this is the case, have the video cassette player checked by qualified service personnel.
VIDEO HEAD CLEANING
NOTES
During normal operation of the VCP, the video and audio heads can accumulate dirt over a period of time, especially when using an old or poor quality tape. When the heads are dirty, the picture can get snowy and the tracking control will have little or no effect. If this condition occurs, head cleaning cartridges may take care of the problem and restore normal picture. We recommend that head cleaning cartridges be used sparingly since they are very abrasive and can damage the video heads during prolonged use. If the problem is not resolved with the head cleaning cartridge then the unit needs to be checked by a qualified service personnel.
NOTE: Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced when they fail to reproduce clear pictures. To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes. Do not leave tapes on the floor of the vehicle. Store tapes not being used in their cases. Do not leave video tapes inside a hot vehicle.
