Built-in Head Cleaner

A clean video head helps produce a clear picture.

So, we have equipped your DECK with

abuilt-in, non-chemical head cleaning system that helps prevent clogging of the video heads. Cleaning is performed each time you load or unload a video cassette.

•This feature is preventative only, If your video heads are seriously clogged, consider the use of a chemical non-abrasive head cleaning kit

or take your DECK to a Servicenter.

Cleaning DECK
Use a soft cloth or dusting attachment of a vacuum cleaner to	remove dust from the ventilation	holes
on the back sides and bottom of the cabinet. Plastic surfaces are easily scratched and can be
marred by alcohol and various solvents. Avoid excessive use	of oil-based furniture polishes	since
the materials used in the cabinet will accumulate more dust. We recommend using a non-abrasive,
antistatic cleaner and polisher.
