Protecting your video cassettes
Eject and store the cassette after you play it. This helps protect
the cassette and the VCR's internal mechanisms from dust.
Place your video cassettes in their protective boxes and store
them in a cool, dry, dust-free area. Store the cassettes on end, not
on their sides.
This prevents improper setting of the tape spool.

Cassette
Store the cassette in its case as shown.
When handling cassette tapes, take the following
precautions:
• Avoid moisture, which can condense on the tape if it is
moved from a cold place to a warm place.
Playing a tape that has moisture on it will damage the
tape and your VCR (Video Cassette Recorder). Before
using a tape with these conditions, wait until the tape has
warmed to room temperature and the moisture has
evaporated.
• Avoid extreme heat, high humidity and magnetic fields.
• Do not tamper with the cassette mechanism.
• Do not touch the tape with your fingers.
