VIDEO CASSETTE TAPE INFORMATION
This VCR will operate with any cassette that has the VHS mark. For best results, we recommend the use of
high-quality tapes. Do not use poor quality or damaged tapes.
PRECAUTIONS
• Avoid moisture. Moisture condensation may occur on the tape if it is moved from a cold place to a
warm place or vice versa. Before using a tape with these conditions, to avoid damage of the tape and
your VCR, wait until the tape has warmed to room temperature and the moisture has evaporated.
• Avoid extreme heat, high humidity and magnetic fields.
• Do not tamper with the cassette mechanism.
• Do not touch the tape with your fingers.
TWO DIFFERENT TAPE SPEEDS
Before recording, select the tape speed from: SP mode (Standard Play) or SLP mode (Super Long
Play).
The table below shows the maximum recording/playback time using T60, T120, or T160 tapes in each
mode.

INSERTING A CASSETTE

the cassette until it is drawn into the VCR.
The VCR will automatically turn on.
REMOVING A CASSETTE
1) In the Stop mode, press the STOP/EJECT button on the VCR. The cassette will be ejected.
2) Pull the cassette out of the cassette compartment.
3) Store the cassette in the case as shown.
ERASE PREVENTION
• You can prevent accidental erasing of a recording by breaking off the tab on the back edge of the
cassette.
If you decide to record on the tape again, cover the hole with plastic
tape.
