BEFORE USING YOUR VCR
 
IMPORTANT NOTES ON YOUR VCR
 
IDEAL VCR LOCATION
 
 
PLACE THE VCR..
 
... on a flat level surface away from radiators 
or other heat sources and out of direct 
sunlight.
... and video tapes away from magnetic 
sources such as speakers or microwave ovens. 
... at least 8” (20cm) away from the TV.
... away from curtains, carpets or other 
materials and allow ventilation space around 
the VCR.
 
DO NOT...
 
... block the air-vent openings.
... expose the VCR to excessive dust, 
mechanical vibration or shock.
... place any heavy object or liquid on top of 
the VCR. If liquid drops inside the VCR unplug 
immediately and contact your SHARP dealer. 
Do not use the VCR.
... insert or drop anything into the tape 
compartment or through the 
air-vents, as this could result in serious 
damage, fire or an electric shock.
 
POWER SOCKETS
 
To avoid overheating or even fire, insert the 
plug correctly into the socket.
 
DO NOT...
 
... overload power sockets, this may cause a 
fire or electric shock.
... pull the power cord to disconnect the plug 
from the mains.
... bind the power cords together.
This VCR is not equipped with a mains power 
switch. Accordingly, nominal current to drive 
the clock is drawn at all times when the AC 
power cord is plugged into a wall socket. If 
the VCR is not to be used for an extended 
period be sure to unplug the cord.
