Dear Hitachi Customer
Congratulations on your choice of a Hitachi Video Cassette Recorder (VCR). And welcome to our
company-wide commitment to your complete satisfaction and viewing enjoyment.
Mains supply: AC 230V, 50 Hz only
• The OPERATE button
located on the front of the
VCR switches the VCR on
and off, leaving the clock
facility unaffected.
• The OPERATE button is
labelled “ / l”, this button allows you to
select operate on or electrical power
standby.
• The OPERATE button is secondarily
connected and does not separate the
apparatus from the mains supply in the
switched-off position.
INFORMATION FOR YOUR SAFETY
Please read the following instructions carefully
before using this VCR.
WARNING: To prevent fire or electric shock,
do not expose this equipment to
rain or moisture.
Cautions:
When the VCR is moved from a cold to a
warm place, dew condensation can occur on
the cylinder.
To avoid damaging the cylinder or tape, do
not operate the set immediately. Allow it to
dry by leaving it powered on for 2 ~ 3 hours.
Safety
• Do not remove panel covers by
unscrewing.
There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into
the cabinet, remove the mains lead and
have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.
• To disconnect the mains lead, pull out the
plug itself. Never pull the lead.
• If the unit is to be left unattended for a
long period and it is not intended to use
the timer recording function, it is
recommended that the VCR be switched
off and the plug removed. If you intend to
record during your absence, remember
there is no necessity for the TV receiver to
be switched on.
The mains lead on this equipment is
supplied with a moulded plug incorporating
a fuse, the value of which is indicated on the
pin face of the plug. Should the fuse need to
be replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved
BS1362 fuse must be used of the same
rating.
If the fuse cover is detachable never use the
plug with the cover omitted.
If a replacement fuse cover is required,
ensure it is of the same colour as that visible
on the pin face of the plug. Fuse covers are
available from your dealer.
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this
equipment. If the plug fitted is not suitable
for the power points in your home or the
cable is too short to reach a power point,
then obtain an appropriate safety approved
extension lead or consult your dealer.
If there is no alternative to cutting off the
mains plug, ensure that you dispose of it
immediately, having first removed the fuse,
to avoid a possible shock hazard by
inadvertent connection to the mains supply.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
Blue = Neutral, Brown = Live
As these colours may not correspond with
the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire coloured BLUE must be connected
to the terminal marked with the letter N or
coloured BLUE or BLACK. The wire coloured
BROWN must be connected to the terminal
marked with the letter L or coloured BROWN
or RED.
On no account connect either of these wires
to the terminal marked E or by the earth
symbol or coloured green or green and
yellow.

On Operation
• Moisture condensation
Moisture condensation on the cylinder, one of
the most crucial parts of the VCR, will cause
damage to the tape.
The VCR should not be operated for at least 2
hours after being moved from a cold to a hot
environment to avoid condensation from
occurring on the cylinder.
On Cleaning
• DO NOT use volatile agents such as benzine,
alcohol, thinner, or chemically processed cloth
to wipe the surface of the VCR case. These
agents may cause the surface finish to
deteriorate or peel off.
On Repacking
• It is wise for you to save the packing materials
and box in case you ever need to ship or store
your unit.

SETTING UP
Connecting your VCR to your television using a scart lead
Set your TV to its proper AV line (scart lead) to
receive signal via the scart connection lead.
This connection will improve the picture and
sound quality.
Make sure the indicator lights in the
VCR display to feed the audio and video
signals from the VCR to TV. If not, press the
VCR/TV button on the hand set to display it.
This connection also allows you to record the
TV programme selected on the TV. To do this,
press the AUX button on the remote control
handset to display the “L1” indicator in the
VCR’s display instead of a VCR programme
number.
