Regular maintenance
This unit uses consumables or components that will wear off. If a worn-out or deteriorated compo-
nent continues to be used, it may cause the unit to break down. To prevent this, perform routine
maintenance using the head-cleaning tape. With the head-cleaning tape alone, however, the entire
tape-winding mechanism cannot be completely cleaned.
Perform regular maintenance of the components as shown below.
Ⅵ Regular maintenance
The tasks of maintenance involved are similar to that of replacing the engine oil or tire of a car.
Depending on the number of usage hours, inspect or replace the components as follows:

Work and frequency of mainte-
nance depend on the environ-
ment and usage. The above infor-
mation serves only as a guide.
Usage Time : You can check the drum usage time with the hour meter display.
For details, refer to page 100, “Checking the hour meter.”
Maintenance consultation : For details on the maintenance plan and fee, consult with your
JVC-authorized service agent.
Ⅵ Head cleaning
• Recording or playing back with a dirty head
will result in block noise or disrupted sound.
Perform regular head cleaning to maintain su-
perior image and sound quality.
• For information on how to use the head clean-
ing tape and the relevant remarks, refer to
page 8, “Cleaning tape”.
• If the head is dusty, “HEAD CLEANING RE-
QUIRED!” will be displayed on the monitor
when this unit plays a tape.
