Try This...
•
Check the tracking control. Adjust manually if necessary.
•
Check the monitor settings.
•
Check the quality of the video tape.
•
Try automatic head cleaning.
•
Clean the video heads using a dry-type video head cleaning
cassette. Do not use a wet-type head cleaning cassette, as it
may damage your VCR. Excessive use of a cleaning cassette
could shorten head life. Follow the cleaning instructions
carefully.
•
Have the VCR video heads cleaned by a qualified service
technician.
•
Check that remote mode of the VCR and your remote are set
correctly (VCR-A or VCR-B).
•
Check to see that the VCR/TV slide switch is set to the correct
position.
•
Change the batteries.
•
Try moving the IR Emitter so that there is a clear line of sight
between the Emitter and the box's remote sensor.
•
Check that the IR Emitter is connected properly.
•
Sometimes a cable box needs to be set by the cable company to
receive signals. Contact your cable company.
•

Forwarding/Rewinding Speed will be slower than 450x under
the following conditions:
1 Use of tapes shorter in length than T-120 (for example, T -30, T-
60, T-90).
2 Activating fast forwarding or rewinding from the middle of
the tape.
