Maintenance

Servicing
• Please refer to relevant topics on "Troubleshooting"
(p.64-67) before returning the product.
• If this unit becomes inoperative, do not try to correct the
problem by yourself. There are no user-serviceable parts
inside. Turn the unit to the standby mode, unplug the
power plug and please call our help line mentioned on the
front page to locate an Authorized Service Center.
Cleaning the cabinet
• Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of the
unit with a soft cloth.
• Never use a solvent, thinner, benzene or alcohol to clean
the unit. Do not spray insecticide liquid near the unit. Such
chemicals may discolor the surface or damage the unit.

TITLE
Cleaning discs
• When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the disc from the center to out. Do not wipe in a
circular motion.
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially
available cleaners, detergent, abrasive cleaning agents or
antistatic spray intended for analog records.
Cleaning the disc lens
• If this unit still does not perform properly although you
refer to the relevant sections and to "Troubleshooting" in
this owner's manual, the laser optical pickup unit may be
dirty. Consult your dealer or an Authorized Service Center
for inspection and cleaning of the laser optical pickup unit.
Disc handling
• Handle the discs so that fingerprints and dust do not
adhere to the surfaces of the discs.
• Always store the disc in its protective case when it is not
used.
Auto head cleaning
• Automatically cleans video heads as you insert or remove a
cassette, so you can see a clear picture.
• Playback picture may become blurred or interrupted while
the TV program reception is clear. Dirt accumulated on the
video heads after a long period of use, or the usage of rental
or worn tapes can cause this problem. If a streaky or snowy
picture appears during playback, the video heads in your unit
may need to be cleaned.
1. Please visit your local Audio/Video store and purchase a
good quality VHS video head cleaner.
2. If a video head cleaner does not solve the problem, please
consult your dealer or an Authorized Service Center.
Note(s)
• Remember to read the instructions along with the video
head cleaner before use.
• Clean video heads only when problems occur.
IR signal check
If the remote control does not work properly, you can test if
the remote control sends out the infrared signal using a digital
camera (including the built-in camera of a cellular phone). It will
help to define the cause of malfunction.
Using a digital camera (including the built-in
camera of a cellular phone):
Direct a digital camera to the remote control,
press and hold a button on the remote control. If
infrared light appears on the digital camera screen,
the remote control is working.
Note(s)
• Some cameras have an IR Filter and will not display the IR
signal.
