2 Getting Started
WARNING
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do
not expose the unit to rain or
moisture.
The power cord must be changed only at a
qualified service shop.
Precautions
Safety
• For SLV-L59 CL/CS/PR, L79HF CL/CS
and L89HF CL/CS, operate the unit on 110
to 240 V AC, 50/60 Hz. For SLV-L49 MX,
L52 PA/PC, L59 VZ, X55 MX, L69HF MX,
L72HF PA/PC, L79HF VZ, L89HF MX/VZ
and X66HF MX, operate the unit only on
120 V AC, 60 Hz.
• If anything falls into the cabinet, unplug
the unit and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.
• This unit is not disconnected from the AC
power source (mains) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the
unit itself has been turned off.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if you
do not intend to use it for an extended
period of time. To disconnect the cord, pull
it out by the plug, never by the cord.
Installing
• Allow adequate air circulation to prevent
internal heat buildup.
• Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs,
blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains,
draperies) that may block the ventilation
slots.
• Do not install the unit near heat sources
such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place
subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust,
mechanical vibration or shock.
• Do not install the unit in an inclined
position. It is designed to be operated in a
horizontal position only.
• Keep the unit and cassettes away from
equipment with strong magnets, such as
microwave ovens or large loudspeakers.
• Do not place heavy objects on the unit.
• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to
a warm location, moisture may condense
inside the VCR and cause damage to the
video head and tape. When you first install
the unit, or when you move it from a cold
to a warm location, wait for about three
hours before operating the unit.
