Thank you
for buying a HITACHI video recorder. The
VT-FX140EUKN is one of the most sophisticated and
easy-to-use video recorders (VCR) on the market.
Please take the time to read this operating manual before
using your video recorder. It contains important information
and notes regarding operation.
The video recorder should
not be turned on immediately
after transportation
from a cold to a hot area or vice versa, or
in conditions of extreme humidity.
Wait at least
three hours
after transporting the device. The
video recorder needs this time in order to become acclimatised
to its new environment (temperature, air humidity, etc.).
This video recorder is used for the recording and playback of
VHS video cassettes.
Cassettes with the VHS-C label (VHS cassettes for
camcorders) may only be used with a suitable adapter.
We hope you enjoy your new video recorder
