event of power loss. When the recorder is received, the
unit must be connected to power source for 48 hours

cabinet, turn off the unit and have it checked
by qualified personnel before operating it
any further.
To disconnect the power cord, pull it out by
the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
Installation Requirements:
•
Choose a location in which air can pass through the
ventilation holes in the bottom, top and back of the
unit to prevent it from overheating.
•
Do not install the unit near sources such as
radiators or air ducts or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibrations or
shock.

Operation:
•
Condensation: If you pour a cold liquid into a
glass, water vapor in the air will condense on the
surface of glass. This is the condensation of
moisture. Condensation on the head drum, one of
the most crucial parts of the VCR, will cause
damage to the tape. The VCR should not be
operated for at least 2 hours after being moved
from a cold to a hot environment to avoid
condensation from occurring on the head drum.
Cleaning:
•
Be careful: When surface of the case is wiped with
a volatile agent such as benzine, alcohol, thinner,
etc., or a chemically processed cloth, the surface
finish may be degraded or its coating may peel off.
Repacking:
•
It is wise to save the packing materials and box in
case you ever need to ship or store your unit.
