VCP PROTECTION CIRCUITS
Dew sensor circuit
²Under high moisture (dewed) conditions, the tape heads and cassette
tape may be damaged if the videocassette player (VCP) is operated.
²When the vehicle's cabin temperature is very low and then is heated
quickly, or the humidity is very high within the vehicle, the inside of
the windows most likely will be fogged. Under these conditions, the
inside of the VCP most likely is dewed.

²When a dewed condition exists, the dew sensor circuit stops machine
operation and the POWER button on the VCP will illuminate and
continue to flash on and off. A message on the liquid crystal display
(LCD) flip-down screen will also appear indicating DEW PLEASE
WAIT until the system is dry enough to operate safely.
²If the POWER button on the VCP flashes continuously for longer than
one hour, and the VCP will not return to normal operation after
attempted use on more than one occasion, see your Ford and Lincoln
Mercury dealer.
High temperature sensor circuit
²Excessively high temperatures may cause damage to the videocassette
player (VCP).
²
When the temperature of the VCP becomes too hot, the high
temperature sensor circuit stops machine operation and the POWER
button on the VCP will illuminate red and continue to flash. A message
will also appear on the liquid crystal display (LCD) flip-down screen
indicating HIGH TEMP PLEASE POWER OFF. If this occurs, turn the
power on the VCP off until the system is cool enough to operate safely.
²If the POWER button on the VCP flashes continuously for longer than
one hour, and the VCP will not return to normal operation after
attempted use on more than one occasion, see your Ford and Lincoln
Mercury dealer for service.
Tape protection circuit
²When the system is in PAUSE mode, the tape mechanism will
continue to create tension on the tape.
²When the videocassette player (VCP) is in PAUSE mode for more than
five minutes, the tape protection circuit automatically goes into STOP
mode to avoid damage to the tape.
Over voltage protection circuit
²If the Rear Seat Entertainment System (RSES) experiences excessive
voltage situations from the vehicle's electrical system (approximately
18 volts), damage to the system components can occur.
²When the RSES experiences an over voltage situation, the POWER
button on the VCP will illuminate orange and flash continuously. If this
occurs, see your Ford and Lincoln Mercury dealer for service as soon
as possible.
