ABOUT HEAD CLEANING
After an extended period of use, the video heads can become dirty, resulting in a loss of picture or sound during
playback. If this happens, clean the video heads by using the optional cleaning tapes.
Symptoms of dirty video heads:
● The picture is not clear, or does not appear.
There is no sound.
● Mosaic (block) noise appears in the picture.
● Black or mosaic horizontal stripes appear in the
picture.
● The picture stops (as if the tape is paused).
● A blank black or blue screen appears.
● The picture is fuzzy. (VHS playback)
Use a cleaning tape designed specifically for D-VHS video heads (JVC D-VHS video head cleaner DFC-2) to clean the video heads.
● Follow the instructions that are provided with the cleaning tape.
If you still do not get a clear picture after using a cleaning tape:
● The heads may be worn. Contact your nearest JVC dealer.
● During VHS playback, if there is a tracking problem, the picture may appear fuzzy. Adjust the tracking manually ( ੬ pg. 23).
