Cleaning is performed each time you load or unload a video cassette. • This feature is preventative only, If your video heads are seriously clogged, consider the use of a chemical non-abrasive head cleaning kit. Loading the Batteries 1) Open cover. Cleaning DECK Use a soft cloth or dusting attachment of a vacuum cleaner to remove dust from the ventilation holes on the back sides and bottom of the cabinet. Plastic surfaces are easily scratched and can be marred by alcohol and various solvents. Avoid excessive use of oil-based furniture polishes since the materials used in the cabinet will accumulate more dust. We recommend using a non-abrasive, antistatic cleaner and polisher. 2) Insert batteries as marked. 3) Close cover.
