CloggedVideoHead
(a) Video Head Cleaning: Normally, your Paimcorder will not
require head cleaning. However, it is possible that the heads
may become clogged due to dust in the air, playing damaged
tapes, long term use, etc. If "NEED HEAD CLEANING"
appears for 5 seconds in the EVF or LCD monitor, the heads
may require cleaning.
(b) Cleaning the Heads: It is recommended that head cleaning
be performed by a qualified service technician. Please contact
your nearest Panasonic Servicenter. An alternate solution is to
obtain a head cleaning cassette. Please use Panasonic
cleaning cassette (AY-DVMCL). Be sure to follow the cleaning
instructions carefufly. Excessive use of the head cleaning
cassette could shorten video head life.
Use this cassette only when a head clogging symptoms occur.
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
