for better quality monaural sound.
• playback non-Hi-Fi tapes in monaural.
Select the desired type of broadcast and sound track.
Your recording is always performed according

• Select NORMAL to listen to your mono
recordings with monaural sound.
Playback the tape.
See the "Play Back a Tape" section on
page 14.
Helpful Notes
When purchasing or renting prerecorded
tapes, remember that only those recorded in
Hi-Fi stereo will play back with true stereo sound.
Standard stereo tapes will play back with
monaural sound.
If the stereo broadcast has a weak signal, you
may get better results if the AUDIO MODE is set
to MONO for recording. Also, set to MONO if the
STEREO indicator on the front panel flickers.
In order to listen to Hi-Fi stereo playback, the
Combination VCR AUDIO (L/R) jacks must be
connected to a stereo amp and speakers.
There may be a difference in audio level
between Hi-Fi and normal audio playback.
Equ=pped with cibx*-TV Noise Reduction for true
MTS reproduction, cllax®-TV Noise Reduction is
required for good stereo separation and audio
fidelity.

Head Picture
A Clogged Video Head
Your Combination VCR will not normally require
head cleaning, however the heads may become
clogged when playing an old or damaged tape.
If the image on your screen resembles the
image shown above during playback, the heads
probably require cleaning.
To Clean the Head
It is recommended that head cleaning
be performed by a qualified service technician.
Please contact your nearest Panasonic Service
Center. An alternate solution is to obtain a
head cleaning cassette. Be sure to follow the
cleaning instructions carefully. Excessive use
of a cleaning cassette could shorten head life.
Use this cassette only when symptoms occur.

Because the clock automatically changes from 2AM to
3AM, keep in mind that any part of a scheduled timer
recording which falls between these two times
will not be performed.
Examples:
A recording set to begin at 1:30AM and end at 2:30 will
actually record for 30 minutes.
A recording set to begin at 1:30AM and end at 3:30 will
actually record for 1 hour, and so on.

IMPORTANTSAFEGUARDSANDPRECAUTIONS
[INTRoDucTION ..... i
Careful attention has been given to this Video product to assure a quality standard devoted to your safety and
enjoyment. This quality standard together with your personal responsibility for the safety of yourself and others
will contribute to your enjoyment. This Video product uses electrical energy and requires proper handling at all
times.
ICAUTION:
READ AND RETAIN THE SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To make full use of the safeguards incorporated in this unit, read and follow this basic guide adopted in part
from Underwriter's Laboratories Standard 1409, Second Edition, before operating this Video product.
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS AND BE SURE TO HEED ALL WARNINGS on unit and in manual, for easy
maintenance, confident operation and trouble free service of this Video product.
IINSTALLATION
1. OPERATE FROM A POWER SOURCE INDICATED on this Video product, or in this Manual. Your Electric
Utility Service Company or Video Products Dealer will be happy to verify the power source in your home.
I
2. THE GROUNDED OR POLARIZED PLUG IS A SAFETY FEATURE
This Video product may be equipped with either a polarized 2-wire AC line plug or a
3-wire grounding type plug.
The two wire polarized plug (having one blade wider than the other) will fit into the power
outlet only one way. If it is a three wire grounding type plug (having a third pin), it will
fit into a grounding type outlet.
DO NOT DEFEAT THE SAFETY PURPOSE OF THE GROUNDED OR POLARIZED
PLUG by tampering with it.
If the plug does not fit fully into the socket, try reversing it. If you should still be unable
to fully insert the plug into the socket, you may find that a proper outlet is needed to
meet today's Electrical Standards. An electrician will replace your outlet safely.
3. POWER SUPPLY CORDS SHOULD BE PROTECTED and routed so that they are not likely to have anything
rest on them, roll over them, or be subject to walking traffic or abuse: particularly at plug-ins, convenience
receptacles, or cord exit points from the unit. Where an extension is needed, use a grounded or polarized cord.
HAZARDOUS FRAYED CORDS OR DAMAGED PLUGS SHOULD BE REPLACED BY A QUALIFIED
SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
OVERLOADED WALL OUTLETS AND EXTENSION CORDS PRESENT DANGEROUS RISKS OF FIRE OR
ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
4. AVOID BLOCKING VENTILATION HOLES
Your video unit has ventilation openings in its cabinet to release heat generated during operation. Blocking
these openings can cause heat build-up inside the unit, causing failures that may result in a fire hazard or
heat damage to cassettes. For protection:
a. Never cover the bottom ventilation slots or the unit with soft material, or operate the unit placed on a bed,
sofa, rug, or soft accessory.
b. Avoid built-in installations, such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided.
5. AVOID EXTREMELY HOT LOCATIONS OR SUDDEN CHANGES IN TEMPERATURE such as placing the
unit near or over a radiator, in direct sunlight, closed vehicles, or transporting it suddenly between areas of
extreme temperature variation.
If the unit is suddenly moved from a cold place to a warm place, moisture may form on the tape and inside
the unit.
6. TO AVOID INJURY TO A CHILD, ADULT; OR COSTLY DAMAGE:
a. Do not place unsecured equipment on a sloping surface or any heavy object on unit.
(Use the unit in a horizontal position and do not place anything heavy on it.)
b. Support for unit should be adequately firm, level, and strong. Replace any unstable cart, table or support.
c. Carefully follow all operating instructions and use the manufacturer's recommended accessories when
operating this unit or connecting it to any other equipment.
An appliance and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause the appliance
and cart combination to overturn.

OUTSIDE ANTENNA, EQUIPMENT, AND POWERLINE EXPOSURE I
1. INSURE SAFE ANTENNA AND CABLE CONNECTIONS
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the equipment, be
sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against built up static charges and voltage surges. Part I of the
Canadian Electrical Code, in USA Section 810 of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with respect to proper grounding
of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an
antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna
discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the
grounding electrode.
2. ELIMINATE ANTENNA PROXIMITY TO HIGH VOLTAGE POWER
SOURCES, OR CHANCE OF ACCIDENTAL CONTACT BY INSTALLER
An outside antenna system should be located where it will never be
reached by power lines, electric light or power circuits and where it will
never contact these power sources if it falls. Installer should use extreme
care to avoid possible fatal contact by touching power lines, circuits or
other power sources when installing an outside antenna.
