Before Using Your VCR 5
Putting Batteries in the Remote Control
● In this VCR, use only tapes with the mark.
● Remove any stickers or labels from the video cassette tape before
putting the tape in the VCR. Labels can jam the VCR.
● Video heads are an important part of your VCR. You can’t see
them, but the VCR automatically cleans its video heads. The video
heads will require replacement eventually. Only an authorized service center should replace the heads.
1
Remove the battery compartment lid on the bottom of the
remote control by pressing the tab, then lifting the lid.
2
Insert two AA batteries inside the battery compartment with
their +and – ends placed as shown in the picture at right.
3
Replace the battery compartment lid.
Video cassette tapes have tabs to make sure recordings are not
erased accidentally. The tab is in the bottom left corner on the
front of the tape.
1
To keep from erasing a tape, break off the tab with a screwdriver.
2
To allow new recording on the tape, cover the hole with clear tape.
Erasure Prevention

or 04 (the Cable Box/DBS output channel). (This is step 7 on page 28.) Leave the Cable Box/DBS on for
a timer recording.
