(a) Video Head Cleaning: Your VCR will not normally require head cleaning: however, it is possible that
the heads may become clogged when playing an old or damaged tape. If the image on your screen

resembles the photograph

It is recommended that head cleaning be performed by a qualified service
technician. Please contact your nearest Pasasonic Service Center. An alternate solution is to obtain
a head cleaning cassette. There are many types of cleaning cassettes, so be sure to follow the cleaning

only when a head clogging symptom occurs.
