MAINS SUPPLY

This unit is designed to operate from AC 230V 50Hz household mains supply.

This unit is supplied with an approved 13 amp (BS 1363) fused mains plug. When replacing the fuse always use a 5 amp (BS 1362) approved type.

PRECAUTIONS

MOISTURE CONDENSATION

If the unit is suddenly moved from a cold place to a warm place, moisture may form inside the unit. In this case, do not operate it for two or three hours.

WHAT IS MOISTURE CONDENSATION?

When cold water is poured into a glass, for, example, water vapor in the air will condense on the surface of the glass. This is called moisture condensation.

MOISTURE WILL CONDENSE ON THE UNIT IN THE FOLLOWING CASES;

When you move this TV/VCR from a cold to a warm place.

After heating a cold room or under extremely humid conditions.

IF YOU EXPERIENCE THE ABOVE CONDITIONS;

Plug the AC cord to AC outlet, set the Main Power Switch to ON and leave at the room temperature until moisture condensation disappears.

Depending on the surrounding conditions, this may take two or three hours.

Head Drum

Video Tape

Under certain conditions, such as low humidity or walking across wool carpet, you may experience a static discharge when touching the TV/VCR. If this happens and it fails to function, follow the procedure below.

1)Un-plug the TV/VCR from the AC outlet.

2)This may take two or three hours.

3)Re-plug the unit again.

Do not place the unit on or near appliances which may cause electromagnetic interference eg. TV or hi-fi speakers, etc. Doing so may affect operation of unit causing erratic playing or recording, picture or sound distortion, or noise.

Avoid extreme heat and cold.

Avoid extreme moisture and dust.

Do not insert fingers or any other objects into the cassette loading slot. Do not spray cleaner or wax directly on the unit or use forced air to remove dust.

Keep the unit away from flower vases, sink etc. Liquids spilled into the unit can cause serious damages. Switch OFF the Power Supply to the unit and consult a qualified service personnel before attempting to use the unit again.

When you leave your home for a long period of time, unplug the AC mains lead.

The ventilation holes prevent overheating. Do not block or cover these holes. Especially avoid covering the holes with soft materials such as cloth or paper.

Place the unit on a flat, stable, level surface, and never subject it to violent shaking or any other shock or impact.

When you finish operating the unit, always unload the cassette and turn off the power.

To protect the unit during a thunder storm, unplug the AC mains lead from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna.

BATTERY CAUTIONS

Use two "AAA/R03/UM-4" size penlight batteries for the remote control transmitter.

The batteries may last approximately one year depending on how much the remote control is used. For best performance it is recommended batteries be replaced on a yearly basis, or when remote operation becomes erratic.

Do not mix old and new batteries.

Weak batteries can leak and severely damage the remote control transmitter. Always remove batteries as soon as they become weak.

EFFECTIVE DISTANCE OF THE REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER

NOTE: When direct sunlight, an incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp or any other strong light shines on the remote sensor, the remote operation may be unstable.

When there is an obstacle between the TV/VCR and the transmitter, the remote control transmitter may not operate.
