Head Condition Sensor

The Head Condition Sensor checks the video heads’ condition. If the heads are dirty, a message will instruct you to insert a video head cleaning cassette.

Be sure to use the Sony T-25CLD or T-25CLDR video head cleaning cassette. If these cleaning cassettes are not available in your area, have the heads cleaned at your nearest Sony service facility (a standard service charge will be required).
