MOISTURE CONDENSATION
Condensation inside the Model 36’s VCR can
cause tape jams or video head damage. When
the Model 36’s automatic dew sensor senses
moisture,
DEW appears and the Model 36 will
not play a tape.
If DEW appears, or when you move your Model
36 from a cold area to a warm one, unplug the
Model 36 and let it sit for about 2 hours, or until
DEW no longer appears when you plug it in. This
allows complete evaporation of any moisture in-
side the Model 36.
