See “Channel Selection” on page 15. Picture and sound of broadcasting channel are weak or missing. Antenna or cables are loose. Tighten connections or replace cable. Wrong TUNING BAND option is being used. Try all TUNING BAND options. See “Channel Selection” on page 15 for details. Camcorder image is not shown.
Troubleshooting (Continued) Video Head Cleaning Video head clogging The video heads are the means by which the unit reads the picture from the tape during playback. In the unlikely event that the heads become dirty enough to be clogged, no picture will be played back. This can easily be determined if, during playback of a known good tape, there is good sound, but no picture (picture is extremely snowy). If this is the case, use a high quality head cleaning system or have them cleaned professionally.
