VCR Maintenance

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

•Periodic maintenance is required to maintain your VCR’s performance. Your VCR has an automatic head cleaner, but the video heads eventually will require cleaning or replacement. Only an authorized service center should perform this service.
