Before Using the TV/VCR  5

Using the Remote Control

Point the remote control at the TV/VCR’s remote sensor.

Do not put objects between the remote control and the
TV/VCR.

TV/VCR Maintenance

In this TV/VCR, use only tapes with the        mark.

Remove any light adhesive stick-on notes from the video cas-
sette tape before putting the tape in the TV/VCR. Removable
labels can jam the TV/VCR.

The TV/VCR requires periodic maintenance to maintain its
excellent performance. This TV/VCR has an automatic head
cleaning system. However, the video heads will eventually
require cleaning or replacement. Only an authorized service
center should perform this service.
