IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
In addition to the careful attention devoted to quality standards in the manufacture of your
video product, safety is a major factor in the design of every instrument. However, safety is
your responsibility too. This sheet lists important information that will help to assure your
enjoyment and proper use of the video product and accessory equipment. Please read them
carefully before operating and using your video product.
Installation
1 Read and Follow Instructions- All the safety and operating instructions should be read
before the video product is operated. Follow all operating instructions.
2 Retain Instructions- The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future
reference.
3 Heed Warnings-Comply with all warnings on the video product and in the operating
instructions.
4 Polarization- This video product is equipped with a polarized alternating -current line
plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power
outlet only one way.
This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing
the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.

receptacle, or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted without blade exposure.
If you need an extension cord, use a polarized cord.
5 Power Sources-This video product should be operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your
Time Lapse Video Cassette Recorder
i.
home, consult your video dealer or local power company. For video products intended to
operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
6 Overloading- Do not overload wall outlets of extension cords as this can result in a risk
of fire or electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords,
damaged or cracked wire insulation, and broken plugs are dangerous. They may result
in a shock or fire hazard. Periodically examine the cord, and if its appearance indicates
damage or deteriorated insulation, have it replaced by your service technician
7 Power-Cord Protection- Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely
to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular
attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from
the video product.
8 Ventilation- Slots and openings in the case are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable
operation of the video product and to protect it from overheating. These openings must
not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the video
product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This video product should never be
placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This video product should not be placed
in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided
or the video product manufacturer’s instruction’s have been followed.
9 Attachments- Do not use attachments unless recommended by the video product
manufacturer as they may cause a hazard.
10 Water and Moisture- Do not use this video product near water- for example, near a bath
tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool
and the like. Caution : Maintain electrical safety. Powerline operated equipment or
accessories connected to this unit should bear the UL listing mark or CSA certification
mark on the accessory itself and should not be modified so as to defeat the safety features.
This will help avoid any potential hazard from electrical shock or fire. If in doubt, contact
qualified service personnel.
11 Accessories- Do not place this video product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
or table. The video product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult as well as
serious damage to the video product. Use this video product only with
a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the
manufacturer or sold with the video product. Any mounting of the
product should follow the manufacturer’s instructions and use a
mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
12A video product and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive
force, and uneven surfaces may cause the video product and cart combination to overturn.
13 Power Lines- An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead
power lines, other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power
lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken
to keep from touching or approaching such power lines or circuits as contact with them
might be fatal. Installing an outdoor antenna can be hazardous and should be left to a
professional antenna installer.

result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the video product.
16 Lightning-For added protection for this video product during a lightning storm, or when
it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet
and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the video product
due to lightning and power line surges.

17 Servicing-Do not attempt to service this video product yourself as opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel.
18 Conditions Requiring Service-Unplug this video product from the wall outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions.
A. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the video product.
C. If the video product has been exposed to rain or water.
D. If the video product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions.
