CAUTIONS

WARNING:TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCKHAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THISUNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.CAUTION:This video cassette recorder should be used with AC120V`, 60Hz only.To prevent electric shocks and fire hazards, DO NOT useany other power source.

CAUTION:TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDEBLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.

ATTENTION:POUR ÉVITER LES CHOCS ÉLECTRIQUES, INTRODUIRELA LAME LA PLUS LARGE DE LA FICHE DANS LA BORNECORRESPONDANTE DE LA PRISE ET POUSSERJUSQU'AU FOND.

CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK).

NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

Failure to heed the following precautions may result indamage to the VCR, remote control or video cassette.1. DO NOT place the VCR . . .

... in an environment prone to extreme temperatures orhumidity.

... in direct sunlight.

... in a dusty environment.

... in an environment where strong magnetic fields aregenerated.

... on a surface that is unstable or subject to vibration.2. DO NOT block the VCR’s ventilation openings.3. DO NOT place heavy objects on the VCR or remote control.4. DO NOT place anything which might spill on top of the

VCR or remote control.5. AVOID violent shocks to the VCR during transport.

**MOISTURE CONDENSATIONMoisture in the air will condense on the VCR when you move itfrom a cold place to a warm place, or under extremely humidconditions—just as water droplets form on the surface of a glassfilled with cold liquid. Moisture condensation on the head drumwill cause damage to the tape. In conditions where condensa-tion may occur, keep the VCR’s power turned on for a fewhours to let the moisture dry.

**ABOUT HEAD CLEANINGAccumulation of dirt and other particles on the video headsmay cause the playback picture to become blurred or inter-rupted. Be sure to contact your nearest JVC dealer if suchtroubles occur.

Note to CATV system installer:This reminder is provided to call the CATV systeminstaller's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC thatprovides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular,specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to thegrounding system of the building, as close to the point ofcable entry as practical.

CAUTION:Changes or modifications not approved by JVC could voiduser's authority to operate the equipment. n Cassettes marked "VHS" (or "S-VHS") can be used with this

video cassette recorder. However, only "VHS" recordings canbe played back in this model.

n HQ VHS is compatible with existing VHS equipment.

Automatic Clock settingThe time and date can be set automatically from additional clocksetting data that is transmitted by one of the regular TV broadcastchannels. We call this TV channel the "Host Channel" and it is aPBS channel in your area. With the antenna cable connected,your VCR can automatically set the clock when the power plugis first connected to an AC outlet.The auto clock function scans all the channels received by yourVCR to find the clock setting data of the Host Channel.*Don’t turn the power on until the time (or “- - : - - ”) appears onthe front display panel.

Before the clock is set, AUTO appears on the display.

After setting, the current time appears (in hours and minutes).

The automatic clock setting function will normally set the clockcorrectly. However, if an incorrect time is displayed on the frontdisplay panel, you may be receiving the clock setting data of aPBS channel from an adjacent time zone, or an incorrect PBSchannel from a cable TV system. In this case, perform the Semi-Auto (Z pg. 9) or Manual (Z pg. 10) clock setting procedure.If "AUTO" remains in the display for more than 30 minutes,perform the Semi-Auto (Z pg. 9) or Manual (Z pg. 10) clocksetting procedure. In the case of Semi-Auto, you have to set theHost Channel manually.If "AUTO CLOCK SET" or "SEMI-AUTO CLOCK SET" is selected,the clock will be adjusted automatically by the Host PBS everyhour on the hour (except for 11:00 PM, midnight, 1:00 AM and2:00 AM) according to the incoming PBS channel clock settingdata. (Automatic clock adjustments can only be received whenthe VCR’s power is turned off.)If “- - : - - ” appears on the display, your antenna cable may notbe connected to the VCR, there may not be a Host PBS signalavailable in your area, or your cable box may not be set to thePBS channel. If everything is connected and set correctly,perform the manual clock setting procedure (Z pg. 10).

ATTENTION CABLE BOX SUBSCRIBERSIf you perform Auto or Semi-Auto clock setting procedures . . .● Select the PBS channel on your cable box before plugging

your VCR's power plug into the AC outlet. (If you havemore than one PBS channel, you may have to select thePBS channel if Auto clock setting is not successful.)

● The cable box must be set to the PBS channel at clockadjustment times, or the adjustment will not take place.

● If you perform Auto clock setting successfully, D.S.T. willbe set to “AUTO”. In this case, at the D.S.T. adjustmenttime (Z pg. 9), your cable box must be set to the hostPBS channel in your area or the adjustment will not takeplace. If the clock is not set correctly, change the D.S.T.setting to “ON” or “OFF” (see step 6 of Semi-Autoprocedure, or step 3 of Manual procedure).
