Before Using Your VCR 5
Putting Batteries in the Remote Control
In this VCR, use only tapes with the mark.
Make sure any light adhesive stick-on notes are removed from
the video cassette tape before putting the tape in the VCR.
Removable labels like these can jam the VCR.
Periodic maintenance is required to maintain your VCR’s per-
formance. The video heads will eventually require cleaning or
replacement. Cleaning or replacement of the video heads
should be performed by an authorized service center.

Remove the battery compartment lid on the bottom of the
remote control by sliding the lid in the direction of the arrow.

Insert two AA batteries inside the battery compartment with
their
+

Using the Remote Control
Point the remote control at the VCR’s remote sensor (see page

Do not put objects between the remote control and the VCR.
Video cassette tapes have record tabs to ensure that recordings
are not erased accidentally.

To prevent accidental erasure, break off the tab with a screwdriv-
er.
