CLEANING THE VIDEO HEADS

Dirty video heads cause the playback picture to blur, even if the recorded signal is clear. However, video head cleaning is a delicate operation that requires a trained technician. For more head cleaning information, contact your local RadioShack store.

Have the video heads cleaned only when picture quality is affected.

DEGAUSSING

Your TV/VCR has an automatic degaussing circuit. The circuit functions each time you turn the pow- er off. However, strong magnetism from nearby appliances might affect the TV/VCR’s picture. If this happens, turn the power off for 1 minute, then turn it back on. If the TV/VCR’s picture is still affected, move the TV/VCR away from the appliance.
