Important Safeguards and Precautions

I INTRODUCTION

Careful attention has been given to this Video product to assure a quality standard devoted to your safety and enjoyment. This quality standard together with your personal responsibility for

the safety of yourself and others, will contribute to your enjoyment. This Video product uses electrical energy and requires proper handling at all times.

I CAUTION

READ AND RETAIN THE SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

To make full use of the safeguards incorporated in this unit, read and follow this basic guide, adopted in part from Underwriter's Laboratories Standard 1409, Second Edition, before operating this Video product. FOLLOVtfTHE INSTRUCTIONS AND BE SURE TO HEED ALL WARNINGS on unit and in the manual, for easy maintenance, proper and trouble free operation of this Video product.

INSTALLATION

OPERATE FROM A POWER SOURCE INDICATED on this Video product, or in this Manual. Your Electric Utility Service

Company or Video Products Dealer will be happy to verify the power source in your home. THE GROUNDED OR POLARIZED PLUG IS A SAFETY FEATURE

This Video product may be equipped with either a polarized 2-wire AC line plug or a 3- wire grounding type plug. The two

wire polarized plug (having one blade wider than the other) will fit into the power outlet only one way. If it is a three wire grounding type plug (having a third pin), it will fit into a

grounding type outlet. DO NOT DEFEAT THE SAFETY PURPOSE OF THE GROUNDED OR POLARIZED PLUG by tampering with it. If the plug does not fit fully into the socket, try reversing it. If you should still be unable to fully insert the plug into the socket, you may find that a proper outlet is needed to meet today's Electrical Standards. An electrician wilt replace your outlet safely.

POWER SUPPLY CORDS SHOULD BE PROTECTED and routed so that they are not likely to have anything rest on them, roll over them, or be subject to walking traffic or

abuse: particularly at plug-ins, convenience receptacles, or cord exit points from the unit. Where an extension is needed, use a grounded or polarized cord. HAZARDOUS FRAYED CORDS OR DAMAGED PLUGS SHOULD BE REPLACED BY A QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN. OVERLOADED WALL OUTLETS AND EXTENSION CORDS PRESENT DANGEROUS RISKS OF FIRE OR

ELECTRICAL SHOCK.

AVOID BLOCKING VENTILATION HOLES Your video unit has ventilation openings in its cabinet to

release heat generated dunng operation. Blocking these opening can cause heat build-up inside the unit, causing

failure that may result in a fire hazard or heat damage to

cassettes. For protection:

a. Never cover the bottom ventilation slots or the unit with

soft material, or operate the unit placed on a bed, sofa, rug, or soft accessory.

b. Avoid built-in installations, such as a bookcase or rack,

unless proper ventilation is provided.

AVOID EXTREMELY HOT LOCATIONS OR SUDDEN CHANGES IN TEMPERATURE such as placing the unit near or over a radiator, in direct sunlight, closed vehicles, or

transporting it suddenly between areas of extreme temperature variation.

If the unit is suddenly moved from a cold place to a warm place, moisture may form on the tape and inside the unit.

TO AVOID INJURY TO A CHILD. ADULT; OR COSTLY DAMAGE:

a. Do not place unsecured equipment on a sloping surface

or any heavy object or unit.

(Use the unit in a horizontal position and do not place anything heavy on H.)

b. Support for the unit should be adequately firm, level, and

strong. Replace any unstable cart, table or support. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with

care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces

may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

c. Carefully follow all operaWng instructions and use the

manufacturer’s recommended accessories when operating this unit or connecting it to any other equipment.

Cleaning Care for Video Heads

Clogged Video

Head Picture

Clogged Video Heads

While your VCR will not normally require head cleaning, however the heads may become clogged when playing an old or damaged tape. If the image on your screen

resembles the illustration on the left or the screen becomes solid blue when playing back a pre-recorded signal on the tape, the heads probably require cleaning.

Cleaning the Heads

It is recommended that head cleaning be performed by a qualified service technician. Please contact your nearest Panasonic Service Center. An alternate solution is to obtain a head cleaning cassette. Be sure to follow the cleaning instructions carefully. Excessive use of a cleaning cassette could shorten head life.

Use this cassette only when symptoms occur.

When the COMMERCIAL ADVANCE™ marked tape is played back, the VCR automatically advances through the commercial segments at high speed. You can also set this feature to Manual so as to have more control over the advance process. The effectiveness of this system can vary due to differences in the way television stations broadcast. See page 23 for answers to the most commonly asked questions about this feature.

The most commonly asked questions about COMMERCIAL ADVANCE™ are answered below.

Question

How fast does the VCR advance through

commercials?

Are commercials advanced through only when 1 playback a recording?

Are commercials still recorded on the tape in

case 1 choose to view them sometime?

Does COMMERCIAL ADVANCE™ work in all recording speeds?

Does the VCR advance through commercials each time 1 playback tapes which were recorded using COMMERCIAL ADVANCE™ ?

After marking commercials, does the VCR stop at the end of the tape, or rewind to the beginning?

Answer

The VCR advances through a 3-minute commercial block in about 8 to 12 seconds if the tape speed is SLP. In SP, it takes about 25 to 35 seconds.

Yes. The commercials are not marked until after the recording is finished.

Yes. By setting the C/A PLAYBACK to MANU(al), see page 22, you can view or advance through commercials as desired.

Yes. COMMERCIAL ADVANCE™ works in SP, LP.

and SLP.

Yes. As long as C/A PLAYBACK is set to AUTO, see

page 22, the VCR should advance through

commercials each time the tape is played back.

The tape stops at the end of the recording so that any additional timer recordings can be performed.

Can 1 play my COMMERCIAL ADVANCE™ recordings in non-COMMERClAL ADVANCE™ VCRs?

Does the marking process interfere with other programmed recordings?

What happens if 1 cancel the marking in progress so 1 can use the VCR?

What if part of my program is advanced through along with the commercials?

Yes. COMMERCIAL ADVANCE™ marked recordings will play in non-COMMERCIAL ADVANCE™ VCRs, but commercials will not be advanced through.

No. If the interval between 2 or more timer programs

is not sufficient to mark the recording, marking will be done after all recordings are complete and the power goes off.

Marking will be resumed when the VCR’s power is turned off as long as the tape has not been ejected.

Rewind the tape to where the program should have

started, and push PLAY to view the program.

Additional Notes:

• Because of the various ways in which commercials are broadcast, the VCR may not be able to recognize all commercials.

* If a timer recording is scheduled for the middle of the night, please be aware that the VCR will make some

noise as it rewinds and fast fonwards the tape while marking commercials.

VCR Plus+ Set Up

This setup is for VCR Plus+ and tinner programming only.

VCR Plus+ programming allows you to set most items of a timer recording by simply entering a special code found in TV GUIDE magazine as well as the TV listings in selected newspapers. In order for the VCR to read this special code, some set up is required. A Guide {VCR Plus+) channel number is assigned to each local broadcast and cable station. Because this number sometimes differs from the channel your TV receives the station on, it is necessary to program the VCR with local channel information.
