Video head cleaning
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 de-
termined 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.
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 re-
placed when they fail to produce clear pictures.
To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality
VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes.

Video head cleaning
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.
