12.0 TROUBLESHOOTING
12.1 SELF-DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION AND WARNING DISPLAY
The VCR uses self-diagnostics to detect internal malfunctions during recording. If
one occurs, the VCR indicates it on the monitor and in the VCR’s fluorescent dis-
play.
Table J shows the type of malfunction corresponding to the warning display and the
action to take.
• Lack of video input signal.
If the VCR is set to record and it does not detect an input signal, NO SIGNAL appears on the monitor and the call signal is output from
the rear terminal.
Check that the cable from the camera is not broken and the camera’s power has not been lost.

TAPE/ DECK TROUBLE
Rewind the tape and press
the EJECT button.
Check for loose connec-
tions.
First, check the cassette. If there seems to be nothing wrong with the
cassette, try the recording operation again. If the indication "CHECK" is
still displayed, change the cassette with a new one and try the operation
again. Otherwise, unplug the power cord and contact your dealer.
Turn off the indication on the fluorescent
display and on the screen by pressing the
EJECT button or rewinding the tape.
When a video signal is restored or the
record mode is cleared, the indication on
the screen turns off.
