CLEANING

Cleaning the 4mm cartridge tape drive

Clean the 4mm cartridge tape drive every 25 hours of actual tape operation. Use only a cleaning cartridge designed for the 4mm cartridge tape drive. No fluids or other preparations are necessary with the use of these cartridges.

Caution: Do not use cleaning cartridges or any types of fluids designed for use in audio devices as these can damage your tape drive.

To clean the tape drive:

1.Insert the cleaning cartridge into the tape drive as you would a regular tape cartridge.

2.Observe the green LED blinking slowly to indicate that the tape drive is automatically performing a cleaning cycle.

Note: If the cleaning cartridge has been used for more than approximately 30 cleaning cycles, the amber LED blinks rapidly. Press the Unload button to eject the cleaning cartridge, and discard it.

3.Remove the cleaning cartridge after it is automatically ejected following the cleaning cycle.

You can use the cartridge tape drive immediately after cleaning.
