Before Use
Using the Mini-DV format Digital Video Head
Cleaner:
1.Insert the Head Cleaner into the VCR in the
same way as a video cassette.
2.Press 1 (PLAY), and after approximately
20 seconds press ∫ (STOP). (Do not rewind
the tape.)
3.Take out the Head Cleaner. Insert a video
cassette, perform recording and then play it
back to check the picture.
4.If the picture is still not clear, repeat above
operation steps 1-3. (Do not use the Head
Cleaner more than 3 times in succession.)
Notes:
≥
Do not rewind the tape in the Head Cleaner
after every use. Rewind it only after the tape
has reached its end, and then use it again in
the same way from the beginning.
≥ If the video heads again become clogged with
dirt soon after cleaning, this might be caused
by a damaged tape. In this case, stop using
that cassette immediately.
≥ Be careful not to clean the video heads too
much. (Too much cleaning could cause
excessive wear to the video heads. If the video
heads get worn, the picture is not played back
clearly even after cleaning.)
≥ If using the Head Cleaner does not clear the
video head clogging, the VCR requires
cleaning or repairing by a service centre.
Please consult with your dealer.
≥ This Video Head Cleaner is available from
service centres.
