Video head cleaning

Video head clogging

The video heads are the means by which the DVD/VCR reads the pic-
ture from the tape during playback. In the unlikely 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 DVD/VCR checked by qualified service personnel.	Good Picture	Snowy Picture

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