Troubleshooting
Before calling for repair service, check the following items for possible remedies to an
encountered symptom.
Symptoms

Check item

This may be caused by obstruction to the antenna due to high rise buildings
or hills. Using a highly directional antenna may improve the picture.

No power

Check that the AC power cord is plugged into the mains socket.
Unplug the power cord, wait for 60 seconds. Then reinsert plug into

remote control

Sometimes, poor picture quality occurs when having activated an S-VHS
camera or camcorder connected and having connected another peripheral

This may be caused by electrical interference (e.g. hair dryer, nearby
neon lights, etc.)
Turn off the equipment.
Check whether the batteries are working. Replace if necessary.
Clean the remote control sensor lens on the unit.
Do not use the remote control under strong or fluorescent lighting.

cord and turn on the unit again.

Do not use in hot and cold rooms (location)
