MOISTURE CONDENSA TION
Whenever warm, moist air contacts a cold surface, the water vapor in the air will condense on the cold surface, like a glass of cold water “sweats” on a hot summer day. When the VCR is very cold, and warm air comes in contact with the heads, condensation can occur in the same day. Operating the VCR with condensation on the heads can damage the VCR as well as the videotape.
When moving the VCR from a cold place to heated place.
Or the temperature of surroundings goes up due to room heating switched on.
Or moving the VCR suddenly from air conditioned room to a place of high temperature and/or humidity in summer may cause the dew indicator to light up.
When inside of vehicle and VCR are very cold, and vehicle’s interior is heated abruptly, do not use in this condition.
This VCR has a ‘Dew Sensor’ to detect condensation inside the VCR. When Dew mode is activated, the Dew indicator on the front of the VCR flashes and the VCR will not allow play FF or REW modes to be activated.
When the moisture condensation occurs inside of the VCR, NEVER insert the cassette into the cassette compartment. Remove the cassette, if loaded, by pressing the STOP/EJECT key. Only operate the VCR after the moisture condensation has completely dried out. Normally, it takes about 2 hours.
When does the moisture condensation occur inside of the VCR?

SERVICE
–If the set has been subjected to excessive shock
by being dropped, or the cabinet has been damaged.
–If the set does not operate normally when
following the operating instructions, adjust only those controls that are specified in the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the set to normal operation.
–When the set exhibits a distinct change in
performance, this indicates a need for service.
Servicing–Do not attempt to service the set yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Replacement of parts–When replacement of parts is required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
Safety Check–Upon completion of any service or repairs to the set, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks (as specified by the manufacturer) to determine that the set is in safe operating condition.

VIDEO HEAD CLEANING
VIDEO HEAD CLOGGING
The video heads enable the VCR to read video information pictures from the tape during playback. In the unlikely event that the heads become badly clogged, video playback will be severely impared. This can easily be determined
if, during playback of a known good tape, there is good sound, but the picture is extremely snowy. If this is the case, have the video cassette recorder checked by qualified service personnel.
VIDEO HEAD CLEANING
NOTES During normal operation of the VCR, the video and audio heads can accumulate dirt over a period of time, especially when using an
old or poor quality tape. When the heads are dirty, the picture can get snowy and the tracking control will have little or no effect. If this condition occurs, head cleaning cartridges may take care of the problem and restore normal picture. We recommend that head cleaning cartridges be used sparingly since they are very abrasive and can damage the video heads during prolonged use. If the problem is not resolved with the head cleaning cartridge then the unit needs to be checked by a qualified service personnel.
NOTE: Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced when they fail to reproduce clear pictures. To help
prevent video head clogging, use only good quality VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes. Do not leave tapes on the floor of the vehicle. Store tapes not being used in their cases. Do not leave video tapes inside a hot vehicle.
