Steps to take when the television won't play your RCA video equipment's video

• Check the television settings and select the correct video input source on the television if necessary.
• Check the HDMI or video cable connections on the back of the video equipment and the television. Reconnect any loose cables. Connect the cables correctly if the cables were connected to the wrong jacks.
• Check the DVD disc or video cassette to make sure it's inserted in the tray properly. The label of the DVD disc should be facing upward.
• Check the DVD disc for deposits or scratches. Clean the DVD disc thoroughly if you find spills or deposits on the disc.
• Reset the video equipment's control board by unplugging the video equipment from the electrical wall outlet for several minutes. Plug the video equipment power cord back in to the electrical outlet and attempt to play the DVD disc or video cassette again.

Care and handling tips for DVD and CD discs used in your RCA video equipment

• Handle DVD and CD discs by the outer edge or the center hole. Don't touch the media surface of the discs.
• Keep dirt, liquids and other foreign matter away from discs. Remove any dirt, fingerprints, smudges, liquids or other foreign material from the discs by wiping discs with a clean cotton fabric in a straight line from the center of the disc to the outer disc edge. Use DVD/CD cleaning detergent, isopropyl alcohol or methanol to clean stubborn dirt or deposits from discs.
• Store DVD and CD discs upright. Don't bend discs. Don't expose discs to extreme heat or high humidity.
• Don't use adhesive labels to mark DVD or CD discs. Use a non-solvent-based felt-tip marker to label the top side of the disc.
