BASIC OPERATION

SCART LEAD CONNECTION (NOT SUPPLIED)

A scart lead can be connected at any time. It is recommended to connect your TV and VCR
in this way as it will provide improved picture and sound quality. Please refer to the connection
diagram on page 4.

IMPORTANT NOTES ON YOUR VCR AND VIDEO
TAPES

VIDEO TAPES

If you use only good quality video tapes, generally it will not be necessary to clean the
video heads.

If poor quality tapes are used, or if a tape is loaded after changing VCR location, oxide
from the tape may "clog" the video heads. This will cause the playback picture to be
"snowy", or even disappear.

To remove minor contamination run a video tape in visual search mode. If this fails, you
will need to have the heads cleaned by a SHARP Service Facility. Please note, if cleaning
is necessary it is not covered by the guarantee.

Use video tapes which carry the

mark.
