• Video heed clogging
The video heads are the means by
which the unit reads the picture from
the tape during p_aybeck. In the unlikely
event that the heads become dirty
enough to be clogged, no picture will
be played back. This can easily be de-
termined if, during playback of a known
good tape, there is good sound, but
no picture (plctat'e is extremely snowy).
ttthis is the case, have the unit checked
by qualified service personnel.

cleaned professionally. )f p)ay)ng a head cleaning tape in the
unitonce does not improve the picture, play it several times
before ceq[Jesting service.

SERVICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING THE REAR COVER.

placed when they fail to produce clear pictures.
