If this happens, clean the video heads with the Sony V8-25CLH/V8-25CLD cleaning
cassette (not supplied). After checking the picture, if it is still "noisy," repeat the
cleaning. (Do not repeat cleaning more than 5 times in one session.)
Caution
Do not use a commercially available wet-type cleaning cassette. It may damage the
video heads.
Note
If the Sony V8-25CLH/V8-25CLD cleaning cassette is not available in your area, consult
your nearest Sony dealer.
Precautions
Camcorder operation
• Operate the camcorder on 7.2 V (battery pack) or 8.4 V (AC power adaptor).
• For DC or AC operation, use the accessories recommended in this manual.
• Should any solid object or liquid get inside the casing, unplug the camcorder and have
it checked by a Sony dealer before operating it any further.
• Avoid rough handling or mechanical shock. Be particularly careful of the lens.
• Keep the POWER switch setting to OFF when not using the camcorder.
• Do not wrap up the camcorder and operate it since heat may build up internally.
• Keep the camcorder away from strong magnetic fields or mechanical vibration.
