General
Precautions
• Operate the unit only on
120 V AC, 60 Hz.
• This unit is not
disconnected from the AC
power source (mains) as
long as it is connected to
the wall outlet, even if the
unit itself has been turned
off.
• Unplug the unit from the
wall outlet if you do not
intend to use it for an
extended period of time.
To disconnect the cord, pull
it out by the plug, never by
the cord.
• If the unit is brought
directly from a cold to a
warm location, moisture
may condense inside the

the video head and tape.
When you first install the

from a cold to a warm
location, wait for about
three hours before
operating the unit.
• Do not install the unit in a
confined space such as a
book or similar unit.

inclined position. It is
designed to be operated in a
horizontal position only.

away from equipment with
strong magnets, such as
microwave ovens or large

on the unit.
