Getting Started (Videotapes)
RJQH_
Push the videocassette gently into the slot on the front of the VCR. You
will feel the VCR take it in.
When the cassette is all the way in, the VCR powers up automatically and
a TAPE-IN indicator shows on the display. It may also start playing
immediately if the safety tab has been removed.
To remove the cassette, simply press the STOP/EJECT button on the
VCR. (If the tape is playing, press STOP/EJECT once to stop the tape
and a second time to eject it.)
Now you can take the cassette out and put it away.
Tape Storage
Store your videocassettes in their jackets and in an upright position (like
books in a bookshelf) away from any magnetic sources. Resist the
temptation to leave them lying flat on top of the VCR. Tapes will last
longer - and so will your VCR - if you store them properly. Remember,
dust, dirt and liquids are enemies of your tapes and VCR.
To avoid aggravation later, apply the labels that come with new tapes. On
them, write notes to yourself about what you recorded.
