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 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.

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.

Notes

Auto Clock Setting

Notes for Canadian customers regarding the clock feature of your DVD/VCR.

The XDS signals are carried only by certain broadcast television stations (for example, the signal is carried by most Public Broadcasting Service stations). You must be able to receive a station carrying the XDS signal to use the Auto Clock Setting to set your DVD/VCR’s internal clock. If you live in an area that does not broadcast XDS signals, you must set the clock manually. Please see page 25 for instructions on how to manually set your DVD/VCR’s clock.

Special note for residents of Newfoundland:

The Auto Clock Setting cannot be used to set the DVD/VCR’s internal clock to Newfoundland time. The time zone command does not include a setting for the Newfoundland time zone. Trying to use the Auto Clock Setting in the Newfoundland time zone could result in an incorrect time setting or no setting at all. Please set your DVD/ VCR’s clock using the Manual Clock Setting.
