Cleaning the DVD/VCR

•Never use a solvent, thinner, benzene, or alcohol to clean the DVD/VCR. Do not spray insecticide liquid near the DVD/VCR. Such chemicals may discolor the surface or damage the DVD/VCR.

Cleaning a Disc

•Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the Disc.

•Wipe the Disc in a straight line from the center to the edge. Never wipe the Disc in a circular motion.

•Do not use detergent or abrasive cleaning agents.

•Always store the Disc in its protective case when it is not in use.

Checking the Laser

Caring for Video Cassettes

•Use only cassettes with the mark.

•Remove any light adhesive stick-on notes from the video cassette before putting the cassette in the VCR. Removable labels can jam the VCR.

Caring for the VCR’s Video Heads
