The surface on which you can see a roll of tape should face up.

Insert a video cassette.

≥The unit is automatically turned on.

To eject a video cassette

≥You can eject a video cassette even when the unit is in standby mode. It does not switch back to standby mode after the video cassette is

ejected.

For main unit
≥Press [<, EJECT] on the main unit.
For remote control
≥Press [VHS] and then press and hold [∫, STOP] for about 3 or more seconds.

≥Break off the video cassette’s tab to prevent accidental erasure. Cover the hole with a double layer of

adhesive tape when you want to use the video cassette for recording again.

≥You can use video cassettes with the VHS and S-VHS marks, but the unit is unable to make full use of

the characteristics of S-VHS video cassettes.

≥Poor quality or damaged video cassettes can cause the heads to become dirty and malfunction. Store your video cassettes carefully and

discard them when they become dirty or damaged.

≥Never use video cassettes on which juice has been spilled or those that are extremely damaged since this will not only cause the heads to

become dirty, but will also make the unit malfunction.

Cleaning the video heads
Dirt on the video heads can cause poor recording and play.

If the picture does not improve, use an optional head-cleaning cassette (part number NV-TCL30PT). If the problem persists, seek advice from
a qualified service person.
