Symptom Remedy
Playback
The playback picture does not appear
on the TV screen.
Make sure the TV is set to the channel for the VCR. If
you are using a monitor, set it to video input.
If the VCR is connected to the TV with the Scart cable,
make sure the VIDEO indicator is lit in the display
window. Use the TV/VIDEO button on the remote
commander to light up the VIDEO indicator.
The picture is not clear. Existing broadcasts may interfere with the VCR. Reset
the RF channel output of your VCR (page 16).
Adjust the tracking with the TRACKING +/– buttons.
The video heads are dirty (see the last page of
Troubleshooting). Clean the video heads using the Sony
T-25CLD, E-25CLDR, or T-25CLW video head cleaning
cassette. If these cleaning cassettes are not available in
your area, have the heads cleaned at your nearest Sony
service facility (a standard service charge will be
required). Do not use a commercially available liquid
type cleaning cassette other than Sony’s, as it may
damage the video heads.
The video heads may have to be replaced. Consult your
local Sony service facility for more information.
The picture rolls vertically during
picture search.
Adjust the vertical hold control on the TV or monitor.
