SAFETY FIRST

CAUTION

When you are not using the recorder for a long period of 
time, it is recommended that you disconnect the power cord 
from the mains outlet.

Dangerous voltage inside. Refer internal servicing to qualified 
service personnel. To prevent electric shock or fire hazard, 
remove the power cord from the mains outlet prior to 
connecting or disconnecting any signal lead or aerial.

WARNING

There are two different types of SECAM colour systems: 
SECAM-L, used in FRANCE (also called SECAM-West), and 
SECAM-B, used in Eastern European countries (also called 
SECAM-East).
1. This recorder can also receive SECAM-B colour television 

signals for recording and playback.

2. Recordings made of SECAM-B television signals produce 

monochrome pictures if played back on a video recorder of 
SECAM-L standard, or do not produce normal colour 
pictures if played back on a PAL video recorder with 
SECAM-B system incorporated (even if the TV set is SECAM-
compatible).

3. SECAM-L prerecorded cassettes or recordings made with a 

SECAM-L video recorder produce monochrome pictures 
when played back with this recorder.

4. This recorder cannot be used for the SECAM-L standard. Use 

a SECAM-L recorder to record SECAM-L signals.

IMPORTANT

Please read the various precautions on page 1 and 2 before 
installing or operating the recorder.

It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record pre-
recorded tapes, records, or discs without the consent of the 
owner of copyright in the sound or video recording, 
broadcast or cable programme and in any literary, dramatic, 
musical, or artistic work embodied therein.
