Before contacting a Samsung authorized service center, perform the following simple checks.

• Have you pressed the POWER button?
You cannot insert a video cassette
• A video cassette can only be inserted with the window side up and the
safety tab facing you.
Timer recording was unsuccessful

No playback picture or the picture is
distorted

When the ►II button is pressed during
playback, the still picture has severe
“noise bar” streaks
• A still picture may have “noise bars”, depending on the condition of the
tape. Press the TRK/CBC CH/TV CH ( / ) buttons during slow motion
to minimize this effect.
Video Head Cleaning
• If poor pictures appear on a variety of cassettes, the video heads may
need cleaning. This is not a common problem and unless it appears, the
heads should not be cleaned.
When cleaning the video heads, read all instructions provided with
the head cleaning cassette. Incorrect head cleaning can permanently
damage the video heads.
If you are unable to solve the problem after reading the above instructions, note:
• The model and serial number on the rear of your DVD Recorder & VCR
• The warranty information
• A clear description of the problem
Then contact your nearest SAMSUNG authorized service center.
