The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle,
is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous
voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

SERVICE PERSONNEL.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO
RAIN OR MOISTURE. DANGEROUS HIGH VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT INSIDE THE ENCLOSURE.
DO NOT OPEN THE CABINET. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY.
CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.
ATTENTION: POUR ÉVITER LES CHOCS ÉLECTRIQUES, INTRODUIRE LA LAME LA PLUS LARGE DE LA FICHE

USER-INSTALLER CAUTION : YOUR AUTHORITY TO OPERATE THIS FCC VERIFIED EQUIPMENT CLOUD BE
VOIDED IF YOU MAKE CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS NOT EXPRESSLY APPROVED BY THIS PARTY RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLIANCE TO PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which
case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
In the spaces provided below, record the Model and Serial No. located at the rear of your video cassette recorder.
Model No. Serial No.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert
the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
Retain this information for future reference.
IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
Only cassettes marked can be used with this VCR. This VCR is not compatible with ordinary VCRs.
Save Original Packing Materials
The original shipping carton and packing materials will come in handy if you ever have to ship your VCR. For maximum protection,
repack the set as it was originally packed at the factory.
Cassette Tape
In order to maintain recorded content and machine itself, and to prevent troubles, the use of high quality video cassette tape is
recommended. Tapes which have been used for long period, used repeatedly, or kept in an unpreferable condition such as high
temperature, high humidity, or strong magnetic field may cause deterioration of picture quality and some troubles. We therefore
recommend use of T-120 video tapes.
Dew Condensation
Never operate this VCR immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm location. When the VCR is exposed to such a change
in temperature, dew condensation may occur on the cylinder inside it, one of its most crucial internal parts. The VCR is equipped with
an automatic dew condensation prevention circuit designed to cope with this problem. It takes about TWO HOURS for this circuit to
work with the power cord plugged in. Please do not use the VCR during this time.
Before beginning the day’s operation, rewind the cassette tape recorded on the previous day a few counts and play it back to check
for proper recording.
Daily Maintenance
Copyright: To record video tapes and other material only in the event that third party copyrights and other rights are not
violated.
