When [
] in yellow:
Dew is slightly adhering to the head or the tape.
When [

Holder. This is not a malfunction.
2
Leave the Camcorder with the Cassette
Compartment Cover closed to cool or warm
it to the ambient temperature.
When [

• However, you can use the Card Recording
Mode or Picture Playback Mode when the
cassette is not inserted.
When [

• The Power Indicator Lamp blinks for about
1 minute and then the Camcorder automatically

Video Head Clogging and Care
If the heads (the parts that make contact with the tape)
are dirty, mosaic-pattern noise may appear on the
playback image, or the screen as a whole becomes
black. If the heads are extremely dirty, recording
performance deteriorates, and, in the worst case, the
Camcorder cannot record at all.
Causes of Dirty Heads
• Large quantity of dust in the air
• High-temperature and high-humidity environment
• Damaged tape
• Long operating hours

Joystick Control [▼]. (Do not rewind the
tape.)
4
Take out the Head Cleaner. Insert a Video
Cassette and start recording. Then, play the
tape back to check the recorded image.
5
If the image is not still clear, repeat Steps 1
to 4. (Do not use the Head Cleaner 3 times
or more consecutively.)
Notes:
• Do not rewind every time you use the Head Cleaner.
Rewind only when the tape reaches the end, and
then use it again from the beginning in the same
manner as before.
• If the heads become dirty soon after cleaning, the
tape may be damaged. In this case, immediately
stop using that Cassette.
• Do not clean the heads excessively. (Excessive
cleaning may cause excessive wear of the heads. If
the heads are worn, images cannot be played back
even after the heads are cleaned.)
