During electrical storms it is advisable to unplug both the aerial cable and mains plug to prevent accidental damage to your VCR and TV.
Do not operate your VCR if it is damaged. Your VCR should not be repaired by anyone except qualified service personnel.
Never remove the back cover of your VCR as this can expose you to very high voltage and other hazards. If your VCR does not operate properly, please check the Troubleshooting Check List (see p. 31). If your VCR still does not operate properly, unplug it and call your dealer.
Ensure that your VCR is placed in a position to allow a free flow of air.
This product is manufactured to comply with the radio interference requirements of EEC DIRECTIVE 89/336/EEC, 93/68/EEC and 73/23/EEC.

Your video recorder (VCR) is designed so that almost all of its features can be controlled from the REMOTE CONTROL HANDSET. Some features can also be controlled from the FRONT PANEL
of the video recorder. The maximum operating distance that you may control your video recorder 
is about 7.5 metres (25 feet). It must also be within an angle of 30 degrees either side of the REMOTE SENSOR on the front of your video recorder.
To avoid damage from possible battery leakage, remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the remote control handset for an extended period of time. Do not use batteries of differing age or type. Always discard
safely.
