Prevent Accidental Tape Erasure

Clogged Video Head Picture Blue Back Screen

Clogged Video Heads

While your Combination VCR will not normally require head cleaning, however the heads may become clogged when playing an old or damaged tape. If the image on your screen resembles the illustration on the left or the screen becomes solid blue when playing back a recorded signal on the tape, the heads probably require cleaning.

Cleaning the Heads

It is recommended that head cleaning be performed by a qualified service technician. Please contact your nearest Panasonic Service Center. An alternate

solution is to obtain a head cleaning cassette. Be sure to follow the cleaning instructions carefully. Excessive use of a cleaning cassette could shorten head life.

Use this cassette only when symptoms occur.

Record/Playback Time

Only use tapes with the IVHSI mark in this unit.
