To clean the LCD screen
If fingerprints or dust make the LCD screen 
dirty, it is recommended you use a soft 
cloth to clean it. When you use the LCD 
Cleaning Kit (optional), do not apply the 
cleaning liquid directly to the LCD screen. 
Use cleaning paper moistened with the 
liquid.
On handling the casing
• If the casing is soiled, clean the VCR body with 
a soft cloth lightly moistened with water, and 
then wipe the casing with a dry soft cloth.
• Avoid the following to avoid damage to the 
finish:
– Using chemicals such as thinner, benzine, 
alcohol, chemical cloths, repellent, insecticide 
and sunscreen.
– Handling the VCR with above substances on 
your hands.
– Leaving the casing in contact with rubber or 
vinyl objects for a long period of time.
On charging the pre-installed 
rechargeable battery
Your VCR has a pre-installed rechargeable 
battery to retain the date, time, and other 
settings even when the POWER switch is 
set to OFF (CHG). The pre-installed 
rechargeable battery is always charged 
while your VCR is connected to the wall 
outlet (wall socket) via the AC Adaptor or 
while the battery pack is attached. The 
rechargeable battery will be fully 
discharged in about 3 months if you do 
not use your VCR at all without the AC 
Adaptor connected or the battery pack 
attached. Use your VCR after charging the 
pre-installed rechargeable battery.
However, even if the pre-installed 
rechargeable battery is not charged, the 
VCR operation will not be affected as long 
as you are not recording the date.
