Insert the tape with the window side up and the safety tab facing you.
See that there isn't a tape in the machine already.
There is something programmed into the memory: cancel the set 'STOP' time.
Check that the safety tab on the video cassette tape is removed.
Have you tuned the set's channels properly?
See that the safety tab on the video cassette is still intact.
Check the aerial and its connections.
Set the recording start/stop time correctly.
Has there been a power supply interruption before or during Timer recording? If so,
the timer will have lost details of the instructions you gave it and it will not function.
Try reprogramming again.
Check that the video cassette tape has been recorded on.
Adjust the Tracking Control (This should remove 'streaks')
Reconnect the mains plug to a power socket: reset programmes (problem caused
by a power interruption).
Check that you set the proper 'START' time.
If the tape is inserted the wrong way it may become stuck. Wait a few seconds to
see if the machine will automatically eject it. If it does not, and the machine stops
working, on no account try free it but contact your local dealer.
