Video head clogging
• The video heads are the means by
which the unit reads the picture from
the tape during playback. In the un-
likely event that the heads become
dirty enough to be clogged, no picture
will be played back. This can easily be
determined if, during playback of a
known good tape, there is good sound,
but no picture (picture is extremely
snowy). If this is the case, have the
unit checked by qualified service per-
sonnel.

Video head cleaning _-
• Video head cleaning is needed when the playback picture "_
becomes unclear. This signifies that the heads are getting
dirty and can occur when playing poor quality or damaged
tapes. If the heads require cleaning, use a equivalent high
quality chemical non-abrasive (wet) head cleaning tape or
have them cleaned professionally. If playing a head cleaning
tape in the unit once does not improve the picture, play it
several times before requesting service.

Notes:
• DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR
SERVICETHE UNIT BY REMOVING THE REAR COVER.
• Video heads may eventually wear out and should be re-
placed when they fail to produce clear pictures.
• To help prevent video head clogging, use only good qual-
ity VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes.
