SERVICING

1. Servicing

If your product is not operating correctly or exhibits a marked 
change in performance and you are unable to restore normal 
operation by following the detailed procedure in its operating 
instructions, do not attempt to service it yourself as opening or 
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other 
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

2. Damage Requiring Service

Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to 
qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
a. When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the 

product.

c. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the product does not operate normally by following the 

operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are 
covered by the operating instructions as an improper 
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will 
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to 
restore the product to its normal operation.

e. If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f. When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance—

this indicates a need for service.

3. Replacement Parts

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service 
technician has used replacement parts specified by the 
manufacturer or which have the same characteristics as the 
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, 
electric shock or other hazards.

4. Safety Check

Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the 
service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the 
product is in safe operating condition.

How to use the Remote

Before use, insert two AA size batteries into the Remote with the 
polarity (

 and 

) matched correctly as indicated on the battery 

compartment or on the lid.
The Remote can operate most of your VCR’s functions, as well as 
basic functions of TV sets, cable boxes and DBS receivers.

Point the Remote toward the remote sensor on the target 
component.

The maximum operating distance of the remote control is about 
8 m.

NOTE:

If the Remote does not work properly, remove its batteries, wait for 
a few seconds, replace the batteries and then try again.

Video heads cleaning

Use a dry cleaning cassette — TCL-2UX — when:

Rough, poor picture appears while a tape is played back.

The picture is unclear or no picture appears.

“USE CLEANING CASSETTE” appears on the screen (only with 
“SUPERIMPOSE” set to “ON”).
