Using the Mini-DV format Digital Video Head Cleaner:

1.Insert the Head Cleaner into the VCR in the same way as a video cassette.

2.Press 1 (PLAY), and after approximately 20 seconds press (STOP). (Do not rewind the tape.)

3.Take out the Head Cleaner. Insert a video cassette, perform recording and then play it back to check the picture.

4.If the picture is still not clear, repeat above operation steps 1-3. (Do not use the Head Cleaner more than 3 times in succession.)

Notes:

Do not rewind the tape in the Head Cleaner after every use. Rewind it only after the tape has reached its end, and then use it again in the same way from the beginning.

If the video heads again become clogged with dirt soon after cleaning, this might be caused by a damaged tape. In this case, stop using that cassette immediately.

Be careful not to clean the video heads too much. (Too much cleaning could cause excessive wear to the video heads. If the video heads get worn, the picture is not played back clearly even after cleaning.)

If using the Head Cleaner does not clear the video head clogging, the VCR requires cleaning or repairing by a service centre. Please consult with your dealer.

This Video Head Cleaner is available from service centres.
