PRECAUTIONS

DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment. DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment. DO NOT remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages. DO NOT place hot objects such as candles or nightlights on, or close to, the equipment. High temperatures can melt plastic and lead to fires.

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 the unit 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 the unit 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 unit. If this happens and it fails to function, follow the procedure below.

Un-plug the unit from the AC outlet.

This may take two or three hours.

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.

Do not block the ventilation holes.

Place the unit at least 10 cm away from the walls for good air circulation.

10cm

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 engineer before attempting to use the unit again.

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.

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

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

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Open the battery compartment cover in the direction of the arrow.

Install two “AAA/R03/UM-4” (penlight size) batteries, paying attention to the polarity diagram in the battery compartment.

Replace the cover.

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 unit and the transmitter, the remote control transmitter may not

operate.

AERIAL CONNECTIONS

Connect an indoor or outdoor antenna to the aerial socket at the rear panel as shown below. For all aerial circuit problems, please consult your local dealer.

Aerial socket

Mains lead

EXTERNAL AERIAL

The type of aerial required depends on the position of your home, its distance from the transmitter and local interference. If you do not have an aerial and you are uncertain of what to buy, you should seek the advice of a local aerial contractor.

CONNECTIONS TO OTHER EQUIPMENT

The exact arrangement you use to interconnect various video and audio components to the unit is dependent on the model and features of each component. Check the Owner's Manual provided with each component for the location of video and audio inputs and outputs.
