Problem caused by a disc

Do not stick labels on the disc (this might render the disc useless). Only use a suitable pen for writing on the disc. Do not insert cleaning discs into the appliance. Do not play discs with any glue from stickers still on them. Do not play cracked discs. Do not play warped or irregularly shaped discs. First wipe the disc (DVD-A / DVD-V / VCD / CD) with a wet cloth, then with a dry cloth. If available, use the optional DVD-RAM/PD disc cleaner (LF-K200DCA1) to clean the DVD-RAM / DVD-R. Do not use clothing or other disc cleaners.
We recommend to use branded, e.g. Panasonic, cassettes of superior quality. Whenever not in use, remove the cassettes from the recorder and keep them in a cover. For recordings always try to make full use of the entire tape. To prevent the tape froms sustaining untimely wear and tear, do not re-use the same tape section for several recording sessions. To prevent the cassette from sustaining damage, employ due care while inserting it into the video recorder. Protect the cassettes against humidity or heat. Do not expose the cassettes to dust. Directly dispose of defective cassettes without trying to repair them. Never open the cassette's housing. Do not open the protective front flap. Never touch the recording tape.
Cassette erasure protection Break out the erasure protection tab to protect the cassette against accidental erasure of recordings you wish to keep. Stick adhesive tape over the gap if you wish to re-record a protected cassette.
