AUTO HEAD CLEANING
• Automatically cleans video heads as you insert or remove a cas-
sette, so you can see a clear 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 DVD/VCR may need to be
cleaned.

quality VHS Video Head Cleaner.
2. If a Video Head Cleaner does not solve the problem, please call
our help line at 1-800-448-2244 to locate an Authorized Service
Center.

cleaner before use.
