The playback picture does not appear
on the TV screen. • Make sure the TV is set to the channel for the VCR. If
you are using a monitor, set it to video input.
The picture is not clear. • Adjust the tracking with the TRACKING +/– buttons.
• The video heads are dirty (see the last page of
“Troubleshooting”). Clean the video heads using a Sony
video head cleaning cassette. If a Sony cleaning cassette
is not available in your area, have the heads cleaned at
your nearest Sony dealer (a standard service fee will be
charged). Do not use a commercially available liquid
type cleaning cassette, as it may damage the video heads.
• The video heads may have to be replaced. Consult your
local Sony dealer for more information.
The picture rolls vertically during
picture search. • Adjust the vertical hold control on the TV or monitor.
The picture has no sound. • The tape is defective.
• If you made A/V connections, check the audio cord
connection.
