MAINTENANCE
SERVICING
Should your VCR become inoperative, do not try to correct the problem by yourself.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Turn off, unplug the power cord, and take
the unit to Hitachi Authorized Service Center for servicing.
CABINET CLEANING
• Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of the VCR with a soft cloth immersed
in lukewarm water and wrung dry.
• Never use a solvent or alcohol. Do not spray insecticide liquid near the VCR. Such
chemicals may cause damage and discoloration to the exposed surfaces.
HEAD CLEANING
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 heads of your VCR 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, consult the nearest Hitachi
Authorized Service Center. Professional video head cleaning requires highly technical
attention.
NOTES:
• Remember to read the instructions included with the head cleaner before use.
• Clean heads only when problems occur.
