VIDEO HEAD CLOGGING

dirty you won't be able to do a perfect recording and the playback picture will be extremely snowy with
good sound. If this happens have the TV/VCR checked by qualified service personnel.

Good Picture Snowy Picture
VIDEO HEAD CLEANING
AUTO HEAD CLEANING cleans the video heads automatically when a cassette is inserted or ejected.
This prevents dirt from accumulating onto the heads which can cause snowy picture.
When this happens (snowy picture) this signifies that the heads are either worn or needs cleaning,
consult your local service centre for servicing.
NOTE:
Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced when they fail to produce clear pictures.
•
To help prevent video head cleaning, use only good quality VHS tapes. Discard worn tapes.

The most common types of television interference are as follows.
IGNITION
Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift.
Usually caused by interference from car ignition systems, neon lamps, electrical
drills and other electrical appliances.
GHOSTS
Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the direct
path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or some other object.
Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve the reception.
SNOW
If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where the
signal is weak, your picture may be marred by the appearance of small dots.
When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to install a special
antenna to improve the picture.
SPRECEPTION DISTURBANCE
RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE
The interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in some
cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.
PICTURE SIZE VARIATION
A slight picture size variation is normal when you adjust the CONTRAST or
BRIGHTNESS control.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect the TV/VCR from the AC power source before cleaning. The finish on
the cabinet may be cleaned with mild soap and a soft damp cloth. Take care when cleaning or wiping the plastic
parts.
