Video head cleaning
This unit has an auto head cleaning function which automatically reduces the dirt on the
heads. However, to further increase the unit's reliability, it is recommended that its video
heads be cleaned every day.
Use the cleaning fluid designated by Panasonic.
Condensation
Condensation occurs due to the same principle involved when droplets of water form on a
window pane of a heated room. It occurs when the unit or tape is moved between places
where the temperature or humidity varies greatly or when, for instance:
•
It is moved to a very humid place full of steam or a room immediately after it has been
heated up.
•
It is suddenly moved from a cold location to a hot or humid location.
When moving the unit to locations such as these, leave it standing for about 10 minutes
rather than switching on the power immediately.
If condensation has formed on or in the unit, the AUTO OFF lamp lights and the cassette
tape is automatically ejected.
Keep the power supplied and simply wait until the AUTO OFF lamp goes off.
Do not insert fingers or any objects into the video
cassette holder.
Avoid operating or leaving the unit near strong
magnetic fields. Be especially careful of large audio
speakers.
Avoid operating or storing the unit in an excessively
hot, cold, or damp environment as this may result in
damage both to the recorder and to the tape.
Do not spray any cleaner or wax directly on the unit.
If the unit is not going to be used for a length of time,
protect it from dirt and dust.
Do not leave a cassette in the recorder when not in
use.
Do not block the ventilation slots of the unit.
Use this unit horizontally and do not place anything on
the top panel.
Cassette tape can be used only for one-side, one
direction recording. Two-way or two-track recordings
cannot be made.
Cassette tape can be used for either Colour or Black &
White recording.
Do not attempt to disassemble the recorder.
There are no user serviceable parts inside.
If any liquid spills inside the recorder, have the recorder
examined for possible damage.
Refer any needed servicing to authorized service
personnel.
