Video head cleaning
The video head “presents” and “reads” data from the Video tape. In the event of a damaged or
dirty tape being used, the head can become “coated” with oxide. The effect of dirty tape heads
are :-
Snowy pictures or no pictures on playback. Non recording of video, “sound may be recorded”.
In such an event you may use a commercial head cleaning tape.
If this does not improve the playback or recording, do not attempt more than two uses of the
head cleaning tape. Contact your
nearest
service agent.
ERASURE PROTECTION
Video cassettes are equipped with a safety tab to prevent accidental erasure. When the
tab is removed, recording can not be performed.
