Battery Packs
The battery pacl<s are nickel-cadmium
or nicl<el metal-hydride batteries.
Before using tile supplied battery pacl<
or an optional battery pacl<, be sure to
read the following cautions:
1. To avoid hazard...
... do not burn.
TermJl_als
... do not dTort-circuit the terminals.
... do not modify or disassemble.
... use only specified chargers.
2. To prevent damage and prolong servi_'e life...
... do not subject to unnecessary shocl<.
... avoid repeated chalging without fully
dischalging.
... ch_rge in an envirol31T/ent where telT/peratures
are within the tolerances shown in the chart
below. This is a chemical reaction type
battery_ooler temperatures impede chemical
reactiol% while warmer tel_/peratures can
prevent complete charging.
... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to
high temperatures will increase natural
discharge and shorten service life.
... avoid prolonged uncharged storage.
... remove from chalger or powered unit when
not in use, as some machines use current even
when switched off.
NOTES:
• It is normal lbr the battery i)ack t_ be warm after
char_in_, or after use.

Cassettes
To properly use and store your cassettes, be sure to
read the following cautions:
1. During use...
... mal<e sure the cassette bears the VHS-C marl<.
... be aware that recording onto prerecorded tapes
automatically erases the previously recorded
video and audio signals.
... mal<e sure tile cassette is positioned properly
when inserting.
... do not load and unload the cassette
repeatedly without allowing the tape to run at
all. This slackens the tape and car/result in
damage.
... do not open the front tape cover. This exposes
the tape to fingerprints and dust.
2. Store cassettes...
... away frol-n heaters or other heat sources.
... out of direct sunlight.
... where they won't be subject to unnecessary
shocl< or vibration.
... where they won't be exposed to strong
magnetic fields (such as those generated by
motors, tral7sforn/ers or magnets).
... vertically, in their original cases.
