IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
In addition to the careful attention devoted to quality standards in the
manufacture of your video product, safety is a major factor in the design of every
instrument. But, safety is your responsibility too.
This page lists important information that will help to assure your enjoyment and
proper use of a Video Cassette Recorder and accessory equipment. Please
read it carefully before operating your video product and keep it in a handy place
for future reference.
INSTALLATION
1 Read and Follow Instructions -- All the safety and operating instructions
should be read before the video product is operated. Follow all operating and
use instructions.
2 Retain Instruction -- The safety and operating instructions should be retained
for future reference.
3 Heed Warnings -- Comply with all warnings on the video product and in the
operating instructions.
4 Polarized Plug -- This video product is equipped with a polarized alternating
current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit
into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to
insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still
fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. To prevent
electric shock do not use this polarized plug with an extension cord, receptacle or
other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted without blade exposure. If
you need an extension, use a polarized cord.
5 Power Sources -- This video product should be operated only from the type of
power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of
power supply to your home, consult your video dealer or local power company.
For video products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources,
refer to the operating instructions.
6 Overloading -- Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can
result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets and extension
cords are dangerous, and so are frayed power cords, damaged or cracked wire
insulation and broken plugs. They may result in a shock or fire hazard.
