Top of playback picture waves back and forth

• A playback signal is not as stable as an off the air TV
signal, so the top of your TV screen may appear bent or
unstable during playback. This is called, “Horizontal
AFC time constant change.” To correct, slowly turn the
TV horizontal hold control. If you TV does not have this
control, or adjusting it does not help, contact your TV
service center. (Some nominal service charges may be
required.)
Video Head Cleaning
While head cleaning is normally not needed, playing old or
damaged tapes may clog the heads. When playback picture
resembles example at the left, head cleaning is required.
Clogged Video Head

L650 p45-56
Ideally, head cleaning should be performed by a qualified
service technician. When this is not possible, purchase a
head cleaning cassette. Be sure to follow cleaning cassette
instructions exactly and only use when symptoms occur.
