Maintenance

Cabinet Cleaning
• Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of the unit with a soft
cloth immersed in lukewarm water and wrung dry.
• Never use a solvent or alcohol. Do not spray insecticide liquid near the unit.
Such chemicals may cause damage and discoloration to the exposed surfaces.
Panel Cleaning
Wipe the panel with a soft cloth. Before cleaning the panel, disconnect the
power cord.
Degaussing
A degaussing circuit in this unit clears up color errors on the TV screen. Color errors
occur when there is any excess magnetism close to the unit. This circuit is designed
to operate once when the unit is fi rst plugged in. If you see minor color errors on
the TV screen, unplug the unit for approximately 30 minutes. When you plug the
unit again, the degaussing circuit will operate to clear errors. Take this step any
time the TV screen is accidentally magnetized or when you move the unit.
Servicing
Should your unit become inoperative, do not try to correct the problem
yourself. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Turn off the unit,
unplug the power cord and call our toll free customer support line found on
the cover of this manual to locate an authorized service center.
Auto Head Cleaning
• Automatically cleans video heads as you insert or remove a cassette, so you
can see a clearer picture.
• Playback picture may become blurred or interrupted while the TV program
reception is clear. Dirt accumulated on the video heads after long periods of use
or the usage of rental or worn tapes can cause this problem.
If a streaky or snowy picture appears during playback, the video heads in your
unit may need to be cleaned.
1. Please visit your local Audio/Video store and purchase a good quality
VHS video head cleaner.
2. If a Video Head Cleaner does not solve the problem, please call our help line
mentioned on the front page, to locate an Authorized Service Center.
