Your VCR operates only with the “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack (L series).

Installing the battery pack

Press and slide the battery pack in the direction of the arrow.

To remove the battery pack

While pressing

BATT, slide the battery pack to the right.

After installing the battery pack

Do not carry your VCR by holding the battery pack. If you do so, the battery pack may
slide off and cause damage to your VCR.

Remaining battery time indicator

When you use an InfoLITHIUM battery pack, the remaining battery time is displayed
on the LCD screen. It may not be displayed properly, however, depending on the
conditions and circumstances of use. The message appears when the battery is dead.
When you close the LCD panel and open it again, it takes about 1 minute for the correct
remaining battery time to be displayed.
