Inserting/removing cassette
Inserting cassette
Driver should never operate
any function of the VCP
mounted in the Floor Console
when the vehicle is moving. Give
full attention to driving and the
road. Pull off the road and park in
a safe place to insert or remove
video tapes from the VCP. A
remote control is included in the
system to allow rear seat
occupants to operate the VCP
functions without distracting the
driver.
²Open the RSES floor console cover, and slide a videocassette into the
cassette compartment.
Inserting a videocassette into the VCP automatically turns the power ON
(the RED power indicator lamp will illuminate) and the tape will begin
playback.
If the vehicle is traveling over rough terrain, it may be difficult to insert
the cassette because the machine attempts to hold the cassette firmly to
prevent vibration. If this condition is encountered, the passenger should
either press firmly or remove the cassette and insert it again. If a
cassette is inserted in the wrong position, the protection circuit will
automatically eject the cassette. If this occurs, the passenger should wait
a few seconds and insert the cassette again in the correct position.
²Once the cassette is completely inserted, close the console cover.
