Dear Customer,

Thank you for purchasing the JVC VHS video cassette player. Before use, please read the safety informa-

tion and precautions contained in the following pages to ensure safe use of your new player.

CAUTIONS

When discarding batteries, environmental problems must be

considered and the local rules or laws

governing the disposal of these batteries must be followed

strictly.

Failure to heed the following precautions may result in

damage to the player, remote control or video cassette.

1. DO NOT place the player . . .

... in an environment prone to extreme temperatures or

humidity.

... in direct sunlight.

... in a dusty environment.

... in an environment where strong magnetic fields are

generated.

... on a surface that is unstable or subject to vibration.

2. DO NOT block the player's ventilation openings or holes.

(If the ventilation openings or holes are blocked by a

newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get

out.)

3. DO NOT place heavy objects on the player or remote

control.

4. DO NOT place anything which might spill on top of the

player or remote control.

(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this equipment, fire

or electric shock may be caused.)

5. DO NOT expose the apparatus to dripping or splashing.

6. DO NOT use this equipment in a bathroom or places

with water. Also DO NOT place any containers filled with

water or liquids (such as cosmetics or medicines, flower

vases, potted plants, cups, etc.) on top of this unit.

7. DO NOT place any naked flame sources, such as lighted

candles, on the apparatus.

8. AVOID violent shocks to the player during transport.

**MOISTURE CONDENSATION

Moisture in the air will condense on the player when you move

it from a cold place to a warm place, or under extremely humid

conditions--just as water droplets form on the surface of a glass

filled with cold liquid. Moisture condensation on the head drum

will cause damage to the tape. In conditions where condensa-

tion may occur, keep the player's power turned on for a few

hours to let the moisture dry before inserting a tape.

Cautions on operation

· When the car is parked under the blazing sun or in an

extremely cold place for a long time, wait a while to use

this unit after the temperature of the cabin drops to the

normal temperature.

· Use this unit as the engine is running. If this unit is used as

the engine is stopping, it depletes the car battery and, if

worst comes to worst, the battery fails in starting the en-

gine.

· If this unit is disconnected during operation (playback, fast-

forward, rewind, etc.), it may cause a machine failure.

When disconnecting this unit, be sure to remove the video

cassette from the unit beforehand.

Cassettes marked ''VHS'' can be used with this video cas-

sette player.

NEVER let anyone especially children push anything into holes, slots or any other opening in the case --

this could result in a fatal electrical shock;

NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind -- it is better to be safe than sorry!

This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any

electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.

DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.

DO ensure that all electrical connections (including the POWER CONNECTOR, extension leads and interconnec-

tions between pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer's instruc-

tions. Switch off and withdraw the POWER CONNECTOR when making or changing connections.

DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment.

DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.

DON'T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in

any way -- switch off, withdraw the POWER CONNECTOR and consult your dealer.

DON'T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.

DON'T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for

unattended operation or has a standby mode. Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure

that your family knows how to do this. Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handi-

capped people.

DON'T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements of road

safety. It is illegal to watch video whilst driving.

DON'T listen to headphones at high volume, as such use can permanently damage your hearing.

DON'T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings. Overheating will

cause damage and shorten the life of the equipment.

DON'T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws -- to ensure complete safety always fit the

manufacturer's approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.

DON'T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.

Features

4-heads stereo Hi-Fi video cassette player

Mountable in either vertical or horizontal posture

thanks to the highly reliable vibration-resistant

design

Protection circuits

(self-diagnosing circuits)

This video cassette player incorporates some protec-

tion circuits inside.

If this video cassette player is used as it is dewed, it

may damage the tape and video heads.

Dew sensor circuit

When the cabin whose temperature is consider-

ably low is rapidly heated or the humidity in the

cabin is considerably high, insides of the wind-

screen and cabin windows are sometimes fogged.

At the same time, inside of the video cassette player

mounted on the car is dewed.

In such the case (dewed condition), the dew sensor

circuit functions to stop machine operation with

indication of blinking

indicator lamp in green,

and "DEW PLEASE WAIT" appears on the screen.

When the machine falls into such the status, wait

for several hours until the

indicator lamp stops

blinking and lights continuously.

High temperature sensor circuit

When the temperature of the machine becomes con-

siderably high, the high temperature sensor circuit

functions to stop machine operation with indication

of blinking

indicator lamp in red, and "HIGH

TEMP PLEASE WAIT" appears on the screen. When

the machine falls into such the status, turn off the

machine and wait for a while until the

indicator

lamp stops blinking while leaving it in a cool place

to lower the temperature. When turning on the ma-

chine again, make sure that the

indicator lamp

does not blink before starting operation.

Abnormal voltage sensor circuit

When the source loop circuit of the machine

detects voltage out of the operation range, the

abnormal voltage sensor circuit functions to

turn off the machine with indication of blink-

ing the

indicator lamp in orange, and

"VOLTAGE PLEASE CHECK" appears on the

screen.

In such a case, make sure that the machine is

connected properly or battery voltage is sufficient.

Note: This video cassette player should be used

with DC12V only.

Tape protection circuit

When the machine remains in the still playback or

slow playback mode for 5 minutes or longer, the tape

protection circuit functions to stop mode the ma-

chine for protecting the tape.

Inserting/removing cassette

Inserting cassette into the cassette compartment

Insert a video cassette with the label side up into the

cassette compartment by gently pressing the center

part.

·With insertion of a video cassette into the cassette

compartment, the player is automatically turned

on. (Automatic power on function)

·The tape counter is reset to 0:00:00. (Automatic

counter reset function)

·Inserting a cassette automatically starts playback.

(Automatic playback function)

·When the car is shaking, it is hard to insert a casette

because the machine is apt to hold the cassette firmly

to prevent the cassette from vibration. In such a case,

insert the cassette strongly or pull the cassette out of

the player once and again try to insert it.

·Use an optional VHS cassette adapter to play back

VHS-C cassette tape.

How to play back VHS-C cassette tape recorded by Video Movie

For protection of important recording

Break the recording protection tab of the cassette.

·If you want to use the cassette whose recording

protection tab was broken for recording, cover the

broken part with adhesive tape double.

Press the EJECT button while in the stop mode.

·Don't insert fingers or foreign substances into the

cassette compartment. When a little child is near

the video cassette player, pay heed to him/her not

to do so.

·If a video cassette is inserted in wrong posture, it is

automatically ejected by the function of the protec-

tion mechanism. If it happens, wait for a few sec-

onds and try to insert it correctly once again.
