2 POLARIZED OR GROUNDING PLUG

As a safety feature, this Video product comes with either a polarized power cord plug (one blade is wider than the other), or a three-wire grounding type plug.

POLARIZED PLUG CAUTION:

This plug will only fit into an outlet one'way. If you cannot fully insert the plug, try reversing it. If it still will not fit, have an electrician install the proper wall outlet. Do not defeat the safety feature by tampering with the plug,

GROUNDING PLUG CAUTION:

This plug will only tit Into a three-hole grounding outlet. If necessary, have an electrician install the proper outlet. Do not defeat the safety feature by tampering with the plug.

Make sure power cords are routed so that they are not likely to have anything rest on them, roll over them, or be in the way of walking traffic.

If an extension cord is used, make sure it also has either a polarized or grounded plug and that the cords can be securely connected.

Frayed cords, damaged plugs, and damaged or cracked wire insulation are hazardous and should be replaced by a qualified service technician. Overloaded outlets and extension cords are fire hazards and should be avoided.

4 DO NOT BLOCK VENTILATION HOLES

Ventilation openings in the cabinet release heat generated during operation. If they are blocked, heat build-up inside the unit can cause failures that may result in a fire hazard or heat damage to cassettes. For protection, follow these rules: a. Never cover ventilation slots or the unit while In use,

or operate the unit when placed on a bed, sofa, rug, or other soft surface,

TEMPERATURE CHANGES

Do not place the unit over or near any kind of heater or regulator, in direct sunlight, inside a closed vehicle, etc.. Do not move the unit suddenly between areas of extreme temperature variation. If the unit is suddenly moved from a cold place to a warm place, moisture may condense in the unit and on the tape.

6 TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY

Miscellaneous

Programs cannot be viewed on TV... Video cassette cannot be inserted... Video cassette cannot be removed... Video cassette ejects when a recording is started

or the power is turned off for timer recording...

In Stop mode, the rrwtor (CYLINDER) continues to rotate...

The top of the playback picture waves back and forth excessively...

Correction

• Setthe VCR/TVse!6Ctorto“TV.”(P.17)

• Irisert the cassette with window side up; record tab facing you.

• Completely insert the Power Plug into an AC wall outlet.

• Make sure №e record tab is intact on the cassette. (P.5)

• To enable the quick play mechanism, the cylinder will rotate for about 5 minutes. This reduces response time from Stop to Play

mode from Play to Rewind Search mode.

• Because the VCR playback signal is not as stable as an off-the-air TV signal, the top of your TV screen may be bent or unstable during playback. Slowly turn the horizontal hold control on your TV to correct the wavy picture. If your TV does not have a

horizontal hold control or adjusting the control does not help, please contact your local TV service center.

If you cannot resolve the problem, please call the Customer Satisfaction Center for product assistance at 201-348-9090.
