NOTES REGARDING THE VIDEO HEAD CLEANING

To ensure normal recording and a clear picture, clean the video heads regularly.

If a square block-shape distorts playback, or only a blue screen is displayed, the video heads may be dirty. If this happens, clean the video heads with a dry type cleaning cassette.

Do not use a wet-type cleaning cassette. It may damage the video heads.

-If you rotate the LCD screen 180 degrees so it is facing forward, you can close the LCD screen with the display facing out.
