Caring for video cassette tapes used in your Magnavox VHS player

• Don't expose video cassette tapes to direct sunlight or extreme heat sources.
• Avoid storing video cassette tapes in spaces where they'll be exposed to high humidity.
• Don't store video cassette tapes in areas where they'll get dusty. Use a cassette storage box to store tapes to prevent exposure to dust. For long term storage, seal the storage container to prevent dust exposure.
• After using a tape, rewind the tape to the beginning before storing. Store the tape in the vertical position.
• Don't leave a video cassette tape inside the VHS player when you're not intending to play the tape for an extended period of time (such as more than 1 week).
