RECORDERS:
WHAT IS CONDENSATION?
1.
When
a
very
cold
drink
is
poured
into
a
glass,
the
water
droplets
which
form
on
the
outer
surface
of
the
glass
are
an
example
of condensation.
2.
Ifthe
VCR
is
exposed
to
a
rapid
increase
in
temperature
(such
as
warming
a
cold
room
or
after
transporting
it
from
a
cold
location
to
a
warm
one)
condensation
may
form
on
the
tape
transport
mechanism
inside
the
VCR.
By
heating
the
inside
of
the
VCR,
it
can
dry
up
the
moisture
and
prevent
damage
to
the
VCR
or
video
tape
from
condensation.
To
do
this,
plug
the
VCR
in
and
switch
the
VCR
POWER
to
ON.
Leave
the
VCR
on
for
at
least
2
hours
before
using
it
for
record
or
playback.
CONDENSATION IS LIKELY TO OCCUR WHEN:
A cold room is heated quickly.
|
1.
The
VCR
is
moved
inside
from
outdoors,
or
from
a
cold
room
to
a
warm
one.
2.
3.
Humidity is high.
f NOTE:
*
Avoid

ANY
OBJECT
INSIDE
THE
VCR
Touching
the
inside
of
the
cabinet
or
inserting
foreign
objects
of
any
kind
not
only
creates
a
safety
hazard
but
can
also
cause
extensive
damage.
PROTECT THE MAINS LEAD
Damage
to
the
mains
lead
may
cause
fire
or
shock
hazard.
When
unplugged,
hold
by
the
plug
only
and
pull
out
carefully.
UNPLUG THE MAINS LEAD DURING A LONG ABSENCE
Turn off the power and unplug the mains lead during a long

jong periods.
‘INSTALLATION LOCATION
For
excellent
performance
and
lasting
reliability
install

location that is:
1.
Well
ventilated,
out
of
direct
sunlight
and
away
from
direct
heat.
2. A solid vibration-free surface.
3.
Free
from
high
humidity,
excessive
dust
and
away
from
magnetic
fields.
* Never move the VCR without first removing the tape.
CARE OF THE VIDEO CASSETTE TAPES
