Video head cleaning
This unit is equipped with an auto head cleaning function which automatically reduces the
amount of dirt on the video heads. However, in order to maximize the unit’s reliability, it is
recommended that the video heads be cleaned as and when appropriate.
For further details on how to actually clean the heads, consult with one of our service
companies or with your dealer.
Condensationy
Condensation occurs due to the same principle involved when droplets of water form on a
window pane of a heated room. It occurs when the unit or tape is moved between places
where the temperature or humidity varies greatly or when, for instance:
• It is moved to a very humid place full of steam or a room immediately after it has been
heated up.
• It is suddenly moved from a cold location to a hot or humid location.
When moving the unit to locations such as these, leave it standing for about 10 minutes
rather than switching on the power immediately.
If condensation has formed on or in the unit, the AUTO OFF lamp lights and the cassette
tape is automatically ejected.
Keep the power supplied and simply wait until the AUTO OFF lamp goes off.
<Note>
Do not use alcohol, benzine, paint thinners or any other solvents. They cause discoloration of
the unit’s external parts surfaces and mar the paint finish.
