Cleaning Care for Video Heads
Clogged Video Head
(a)Video Head Cleaning: Normally, your Palmcorder 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
Use this cassette only when a head clogging symptoms occur.
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
