CABINET CLEANING

¡Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of the DVD/VCR COMBINATION UNITS with a soft cloth immersed in

lukewarm water and wrung dry.

¡Never use a solvent or alcohol. Do not spray insecticide liquid near the DVD/VCR COMBINA- TION UNITS. Such

chemicals may cause damage and discoloration to the exposed surfaces.

AUTO HEAD CLEANING

Automatically cleans video heads as you insert or remove a cas- sette, so you can see a clear picture.

Playback picture may become blurred or interrupted while the TV program reception is clear. Dirt accumulated on the video heads after long periods of use, or the usage of rental or worn tapes can cause this problem. If a streaky or snowy picture appears during playback, the video heads in your DVD/VCR COMBINATION UNITS may need to be cleaned.

1.Please visit your local Audio/Video store and purchase a good quality VHS Video Head Cleaner.

2.If a Video Head Cleaner does not solve the problem, please call our help line at 1-800-968-3429 to locate an Authorized Service Center.

NOTES:

Remember to read the instructions included with the video head cleaner before use.

Clean video heads only when problems occur.

IF THE LASER OPTICAL PICKUP UNIT IS DIRTY

¡If the player still does not perform properly when it is operated while referring to the relevant sections and to the TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE in this Owner’s Manual, the laser optical pickup unit may be dirty. Consult your dealer or an Authorized Service Center for inspection and cleaning of the laser optical pickup unit.

DISC HANDLING

¡Use discs which have the following logos on them. (Optical audio digital discs.)

¡Handle the discs so that fingerprints and dust do not adhere to the surfaces of the discs.

¡To clean-off, use a soft cloth.

¡Do not use a hard cloth since this will mar the disc. ¡Wipe the disc in a straight line from center to edge. ¡Never wipe with a circular motion.

¡Do not use detergent or abrasive cleaning agents.

¡Always store the disc in its protective case when it is not used.
