The VCR has had difficulty with the tape loading mecha-
nism. To reset, turn the power off, and on again. If this does
not clear the error, unplug the VCR from the wall and
inspect both tape slots for foreign objects or crooked tapes.
If there is scene information in the Edit List from an Auto-
matic Assembly Edit, the 8mm deck will not allow you to
eject the tape using the remote control. This is because if
you eject the tape, you will lose your scene programming.
We don’t want to make it too easy to do this by accidentally
ejecting the 8mm tape. You can still eject the tape using the
eject button behind the Left Tower door — this will erase all
your Edit List settings.
If there is scene information in the Scene Edit List from an
Automatic Assembly Edit, you will not be able to reset the
Tape Counter on the 8mm deck. This is to prevent you from
losing your scene programming. To clear unwanted pro-
gramming, eject the 8mm tape using the Eject key behind
the Left Tower Door.
A strong static electricity shock, or other unforeseen circum-
stance, can cause the control system of your Dual-Deck VCR
to lock up. To reset the control system, unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet for five seconds and plug it in
again. If this does not restore all operations to normal,
unplug it again for ten minutes. You will then need to reset
the clock (if the clock is still set, you haven't unplugged the
VCR for long enough). If these steps do not correct the
problem, the Dual-Deck VCR must be serviced by an autho-
rized service center.
“My On Screen Display
has a message that
says LOAD, DRUM or
REEL ERROR.”
“Sometimes I can’t
EJECT a tape using my
remote control.”
“The power went out,
and now my VCR
doesn’t work.”
"I can't reset the
8mm Tape Counter."
