Helpful Hints
VCR Maintenance
• Remove any light adhesive stick-on notes from the video cassette
before putting the cassette in the VCR. Removable labels can jam
the VCR.
• Periodic maintenance is required to maintain your VCR’s perfor-
mance. Your VCR has an automatic head cleaner, but the video
heads eventually will require cleaning or replacement. Only an
authorized service center should perform this service.

not erased accidentally.
