You may have noticed that there is also an LP speed. Your Hitachi VCR does not record at this
speed, but it can play cassettes that were recorded in LP mode. No special setting is required for
playback.
Safety Tabs Prevent Erasure
A safety tab is located on the front left edge of every videotape next to the label. Break this tab
off if you want to keep a special tape from being erased accidentally. (Notice this tab is already
removed on prerecorded tapes you buy or rent.) Poke a screwdriver or similar tip into the space
behind the tab to break it off.
Don't worry, you can change your mind and record on this tape even after the tab is broken off –
simply cover the hole with cellophane tape.
Loading and Ejecting
When you load a videocassette into the VCR, there is only one right way! Most tapes show you
the way with a little arrow on the top side which should go in first.
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.
