Many operational problems are easily remedied by reviewing the instructions in this manual and
trying out some different controls and settings. The chart on page 79 covers the more common
problems that new VCR owners encounter.
Don't Attempt Repairs Yourself
Do not remove the cover or the back of the VCR – this will void the warranty and endanger your
safety. The exposed uninsulated voltage in this unit may be high enough to cause electrical
shock. It is dangerous to make contact with any inside part, and none of these parts are intended
to be serviced by an untrained user. To be safe, refer service problems to qualified service
personnel.
