Video head clogging

The video heads are the means by which the unit 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 deter- mined 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 unit checked by qualified service personnel.

5 Press ZERO RETURN. The tape will rewind and automatically stop at the “00:00:00” position.

Video head cleaning is needed when the playback picture becomes unclear. This signifies that the heads are getting dirty and can occur when playing poor quality or damaged tapes. If the heads require cleaning, use a equivalent high quality chemical non-abrasive (wet) head cleaning tape or have them cleaned professionally. If playing a head cleaning tape in the unit once does not improve the picture, play it several times before requesting service.

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.
