1 POWER SOURCE CAUTION
Operate only from power source indicated on unit or in this manual. If uncertain, have your Electric Utility Service Company or Video Products Dealer verify your home power source.
2 POWER CORD PLUG
For safety, this unit has a polarized type plug {one wide blade), or a three-wire grounding type plug. Always hold the plug firmly and make sure your hands are dry when plugging in or unplugging the AC power cord. Regularly remove dust, dirt, etc. on the plug.
POLARIZED PLUG CAUTION: The plug fits into outlet one way. If it cannot be fully inserted, try reversing it. If it stilt will not fit, have an electrician install the proper wall outlet. Do not tamper with the plug.
GROUNDING PLUG CAUTION: The plug requires a three-hole grounding outlet. If necessary, have an electrician install the proper outlet. Do not tamper with the plug.

To avoid unit malfunction, and to protect against electrical shock, fire or personal injury:
- Keep power cord away from heating appliances and walking traffic. Do not rest heavy objects on, or roll such objects over the power cord.
- Do not tamper with the cord in any way.
- An extension cord should have the same type plug (polarized or grounding) and must be securely connected.
- Overloaded wall outlets or extension cords is a fire hazard.
- Frayed cords, damaged plugs, and damaged or cracked wire insulation are hazardous'and should be replaced by a qualified electrician.
4 DO NOT BLOCK VENTILATION HOLES
Ventilation openings in the cabinet release heat generated during operation. If blocked, heat build-up may result in a fire hazard or heat damage to cassettes.

a. Never cover ventilation slots while unit is ON, or
operate unit while placed on a bed, sofa, rug, or other soft surface.
b. Avoid built-in installation, such as a book case
or rack, unless properly ventilated.
5 PLACEMENT AVOID EXTREMELY HOT LOCATIONS
OR SUDDEN TEMPERATURE CHANGES
Do not place unit over or near a heater or regulator, in direct sunlight, etc. If unit is suddenly moved from a cold place to a warm place, moisture may condense in unit and on the tape
