On Colour system
This unit is designed to play back programmes
based on the PAL (B/G and D/K) and SECAM (B/
G and D/K) colour systems.
• Tapes recorded with the French SECAM colour
system can be played back on this unit but the
picture displayed will be black and white.
FOR YOUR SAFETY

Longrun Head System
This longrun head system enables approximately
8,000 hours of recording/playback with high
quality images. Newly developed head cylinder
with narrower head windows and tapered
cylinder design effectively protects heads from
dust and prevents head cloging. Plus, “Alumina”
Head Cleaner further enhanced cleaning
efficiency.
• Based on in-house tests with Panasonic video
cassettes. Actual head life may vary according
to conditions of use, tape type, temperature,
humidity, etc.
Infrared Remote Control
Power Source for the Remote Control
The remote control is powered by 2 UM3 or R6
size batteries. The life of the batteries is about
one year, although this depends on the
frequency of use.
Precautions for Battery Replacement
• Load the new batteries with their polarity (+
and -) aligned correctly.
• Do not apply heat to the batteries, or an internal
short-circuit may occur.
• If you do not intend to use the remote control
for a long period of time, remove the batteries
and store them in a cool and dry place.
• Remove spent batteries immediately and
dispose of them.
• Do not use an old and a new battery together,
and never use an alkaline battery with a
manganese battery.
• Do not use rechargeable batteries.
