— Cleaning Tape
Follow cleaning tape instructions carefully.
Excessive use of tape can shorten head life.
If head clog symptoms persist, contact your
nearest Factory Service Center or authorized
Service Center.
Build-in Head Cleaner
A clean video head helps produce a clear picture.
So, we have equipped your VCR with a built-
in, non chemical head cleaning system that
helps prevent clogging of the video heads.
Cleaning is performed each time you load or
unload a video cassette.
* This feature is preventative only, If your video
heads are seriously clogged, consider the use of
a chemical nonabrasive head cleaning kit or take
your VCR to a Service Center.
Cleaning the VCR
Use a soft cloth or dusting attachment of
your vacuum cleaner to dust your VCR.
Remove dust from the ventilation holes on
the back sides and bottom of the cabinet.
Plastic surfaces are easily scratched and
can be marred by alcohol and various
solvents. Avoid excessive use of oil-based
furniture polishes since the materials used
in the cabinet will accumulate more dust.
We recommend using a nonabrasive,
antistatic cleaner and polisher.
