VIDEO HEAD CLEANING
VIDEO HEAD CLOGGING
The video heads are the means by which the TV/VCR 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 TV/VCR checked by qualified service personnel.

VIDEO HEAD CLEANING
AUTO HEAD CLEANING system cleans the video heads automatically when a cassette is inserted or ejected to
prevent dirt from accumulating on the heads. However, manual head cleaning is needed if the picture on playback is
still unclear although the picture on program is normal. This failure signifies that the head is getting dirty and occurs
when playing poor quality or damaged tapes. If the heads require cleaning, use a high quality head cleaning system
or have them cleaned professionally.
