There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Turn off, unplug the power plug, and please call our help line to locate an Authorized Service Center. CLEANING THE CABINET • Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use a solution containing alcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasive. CLEANING DISCS • When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center to out. Do not wipe in a circular motion. • Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, detergent, abrasive cleaning agents or antistatic spray intended for analog records. CLEANING THE DISC LENS • If this unit still does not perform properly although you refer to the relevant sections and to "Troubleshooting" in this Owner's Manual, the laser optical pickup unit may be dirty. Consult your dealer or an Authorized Service Center for inspection and cleaning of the laser optical pickup unit. DISC HANDLING • When you handle a disc hold it by its edge and try not to touch the surface of the disc. • Always store a disc in its protective case when it is not used. AUTO HEAD CLEANING • Automatically cleans video heads as you insert or remove a cassette tape, so you can see a clear picture. • Playback picture may become blurred or interrupted while the TV program reception is clear. Dirt accumulated on the video heads after a long period of use, or the usage of rental or worn cassette tapes can cause this problem. If a streaky or snowy picture appears during playback, the video heads in your unit 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, please call our toll free customer support line found on the cover of this manual to locate an authorized service center. Note: • Remember to read the instructions along with the video head cleaner before use. • Clean video heads only when problems occur.
