Troubleshooting
If you are having trouble with your Video please check the following before calling your service centre.
No picture and no sound
• Check that the Video plug has
been plugged in and switched on
at a mains wall socket and that
the television has been plugged in
and switched on.
• Check the aerial lead is
undamaged and securely
connected to the correct sockets
in both the television and the
Video.
• Check that you have tuned into a
video channel on your television.
• If you are using a AV connection,
check that the cable is secure and
that the correct AV channel is
selected on your television.
No playback or a poor
picture
• Try a different video cassette. If the
problem is resolved, the problem
may have been the cassette itself.
• Try using the tracking buttons TRK
+ or - to reduce the amount of
visible interference.
• If the cassette contains a
recording that you have recently
made from the television, the
television channels may not be
tuned to the Video correctly.
