4. Nach viewing, eject the converter from the VHS player.
5. To remove the VHS-C tape, slide the 'Open/Close' switch on the converter to the 'Open' position. The lid will open, allowing you to retrieve your VHS-C tape.

Wartung

Regular maintenance helps ensure optimal performance and longevity of your converter and tapes:

• Reinigung: Periodically clean the exterior of the converter with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
• VHS Player Maintenance: Over time, VHS players can accumulate dust and grease. It is advisable to use a VHS head cleaner on your VHS player before using the converter to prevent potential damage to tapes or jamming of the recorder.
• Batteriewechsel: Replace the AA battery when the motorized lid mechanism becomes slow or unresponsive.

Fehlerbehebung

• Converter not opening/closing: Check if the AA battery is inserted correctly and has sufficient charge. Replace the battery if necessary.
• Tape jamming in VHS player: Ensure the VHS-C tape is properly seated within the converter and that the converter's lid is fully closed. Verify that your VHS player's heads are clean using a VHS head cleaner. If the issue persists, gently remove the converter and inspect both the converter and the VHS-C tape for any damage.
• Poor playback quality: This may indicate an issue with the VHS-C tape itself, the VHS player's heads needing cleaning, or a worn-out VHS player.
