54 EN TROUBLESHOOTING Before requesting service, use this chart and see if you can repair the trouble yourself. Small problems are often easily corrected, and this can save you from the trouble of sending your VCR off for repair. POWER SYMPTOM 1. The power will not come on. 2. The clock works, but the VCR's power will not come on. 3. The Remote will not function. POSSIBLE CAUSE ● The AC power cord is disconnected. ● Child lock is on. ● The VCR is in the timer recording standby mode with "AUTO TIMER" set to "OFF" (੬ pg. 37, 38). ● The child lock function is activated. ● The batteries are discharged. ● Timer is on. ● Remote control A/B code is wrong. CORRECTIVE ACTION Connect the AC power cord. Turn off child lock function (੬ pg. 43). Press TIMER to disengage. Press and hold POWER on the Remote for more than 10 seconds to release the child lock function (੬ pg. 43). Replace batteries. Press TIMER button on the Remote. Reset A/B code (੬ pg. 53).

Or "USE CLEANING CASSETTE" appears on the screen. 4. The Hi-Fi sound cannot be heard. RECORDING SYMPTOM 1. Recording will not start. 2. TV broadcasts will not be recorded properly. 3. Tape-to-tape editing will not work. POSSIBLE CAUSE ● If the RF connection (੬ pg. 7) is used to view the picture, the channel on the TV is set incorrectly. ● If the AV connection (੬ pg. 7) is used to view the picture, the TV receiver is set to the wrong mode. ● Automatic tracking is engaged. ● The video heads may be dirty. ● Audio Monitor setting is incorrect. POSSIBLE CAUSE ● There is no cassette loaded. ● "REC SAFETY" is set to "ON" and the loaded cassette has had its record safety tab removed. ● The VCR has been set to "L-1" or "F1" input mode by mistake. ● The components have been incorrectly connected, or correct video connector (S VIDEO or VIDEO) is not selected. ● The power to one or more of the units has not been turned on. ● The recording VCR's input mode has been set incorrectly.

CORRECTIVE ACTION Select channel 3 or 4 on the TV. Select the AV mode on the TV. Disengage auto tracking and adjust the tracking manually (੬ pg. 17). The heads must be cleaned.
