Dew Condensation
CAUTIONS DURING USE
This VCR includes a safety function to prevent operation when dew condensation occurs and thus protects against damage to
tapes, the video heads and other parts.
What is condensation?
If you pour cold beer in a glass, water droplets gather on
the surface of the glass. This phenomenon is known as
condensation.
When condensation occurs.
If you continue to use the video device in this state, the
tape will cling to the internal parts of the VCR, causing
damage to the tape and video heads.

DEW
If condensation occurs
The DEW display blinks on the VCR display
and a buzzer sounds continually (when
BUZZER switch is ON).
* To turn the buzzer off, turn the BUZZER
switch to OFF.
Remove the cassette tape.
With the POWER switch ON, wait until the Dew
display stops blinking.
This may take several hours depending on
surrounding conditions.
