Head Cleaning

Playing older or damaged tapes may eventually
cause video heads to become clogged.

is detected. To remove

nearest Factory Service Center or authorized
Service Center. (See Page 64.)

Features for a Quality Picture
Digital Auto Tracking
Continuously analyzes the signal and adjusts for optimum
picture quality.
Manual Tracking Control (to reduce picture noise)
Use during Playback and Slow Motion mode to reduce
picture noise. Press the 3 or 6 number key on the remote
control or CH on the unit until the picture clears up.
To return to Auto Tracking, press POWER off, then on
again a few seconds later.
V-Lock Control
In Still mode, the 3 or 6 number key on the remote control or
CH on the unit operate as a V-Lock control to reduce jitter.
PanaBlack TM Picture Tube
This unit uses a PanaBlack
reproduction and picture contrast.
Velocity Modulated Scan (PV-DF2702 only)
This advanced circuitry senses video signal transitions
from dark-to-light. The black-and-white portions of the
signal speed up and slow down as needed, giving you
sharp dark-to-light transitions and outstanding edge
definition.
3 Line Digital Comb Filter
Provides an extremely accurate means of separating
color from black-and-white in the video signal. Three
channels of picture data, the filter removes both horiz-
ontally and vertically hanging dots, as well as dot crawl.
