Precautions
Safety Information
For safe installation:
• Leave a clear space of 5 cm around the unit for
adequate ventilation.
• Do not install the unit in hot, humid, or
excessively dusty places.
• Do not install the unit where it may be exposed to
mechanical vibrations.
For your protection, refer all servicing to qualified
personnel.
About Moisture
Condensation
If the unit is brought directly from a cold place to a
warm place, moisture may condense on the video
head drum. If this happens, the tape may stick to
the head drum and it may be damaged or the unit
may not operate correctly. To avoid possible
damage caused by moisture condensation, be sure
not to leave a cassette inside the compartment
when the unit is not in use. When bringing the unit
from a cold place to a warm place, wait for about
10 minutes before operating it.
If the tape operation buttons do not work due to
moisture condensation, leave the power on for
more than one hour.
For general safety:
• Do not expose the unit to rain or moisture.
• Do not open the rear cover.
For safe operations:
• Do not operate the unit on anything but 220–240
V AC, 50 Hz.
• Do not operate the unit if any liquid or solid
object falls in it—have it checked immediately.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if you do not
intend to use it for an extended period of time. To
disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, never
by the cord.
