Caring for Video Cassettes
• Use only cassettes with the
mark.
• Remove any light adhesive stick-on notes from the video cassette before putting the cassette in the VCR. Removable
labels can jam the VCR.
Caring for the VCR’s Video Heads
• Periodic maintenance is required to maintain your DVD/VCR Dual Player’s excellent performance. The VCR has an
Automatic Head Cleaner. However, the video heads will require replacement eventually. Only an authorized service
center should perform this service.
Disc Handling
• Handle the discs so that fingerprints and dust do not adhere to the surfaces of the discs.
• Always store the disc in its protective case when it is not used.
• Note that discs with special shapes (heart-shaped discs, octagonal discs, etc.) cannot be played back on this unit. Do not
attempt to play such discs, as they may damage the unit.
Testing the Remote Control
• If the remote control is not working properly, you can use a digital camera (including a cellular phone with built-in
camera) to see if it is sending out an infrared signal. Please note that some cell phone cameras with IR fi lters will not
work. You can verify if your cell phone camera is suitable for this test by using other working remotes in your house
and see if they fl ash.
How to perform the test?
1. Point the IR transmitter of the remote control towards the lens of the digital camera (or cell phone
p p
camera).
2. Turn on the digital camera and look at the IR transmitter of the remote control through the LCD
display of the digital camera.
3. While looking at the LCD, press the buttons on your remote control you want to test.
a. If your remote control is working properly, the IR transmitter of the remote control will create a
noticeable flash on the LCD of the digital camera.
b. If it does not flash, replace the batteries in your remote with new batteries and try again. If it still does
not flash, your remote control may be damaged or defective. Please contact customer service for
replacement options.
