Because the VCR playback signal is not as stable as an off-the-air
TV signal, you might experience the following symptom on your TV
screen: "Top of TV screen is bent or unstable when VCR is played
back. This symptom is more noticeable when a pre-recorded tape,
recorded by another VCR, is played back." To solve this problem,
locate the horizontal hold control on your TV. Turn it slowly to correct
the wavy picture. If your TV does not have the horizontal hold control
or adjusting the control does r>ot help, some modifications have to be
made to the TV set. Technically this Is called "Horizontal AFC time
constant change." If such a problem Is noticed, please contact your
local TV service center. (Some nominal service charges are required.)
