Video head cleaning

Video head clogging

The video heads are the means by which the DVD/VCR reads the picture from the tape during playback. In the unlikely event that the heads become dirty enough to be clogged, no pic- ture 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 DVD/VCR checked by qualified service personnel.

Snowy Picture

NOTES: • DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR SERVICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING THE REAR COVER.

•Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced when they fail to produce clear pictures.

•To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes.
