General Maintenance 
Cleaning the camcorder Heads 
Dirt can accumulate on the video heads on the camera causing the playback picture to become 
blurred or appear as if video information is lost. This often means that the video heads are dirty. 
Use a video head cleaner such as a dry type head cleaning tape to clean the heads. 
If after cleaning the heads the picture does not clear up consult your nearest dealer or VCR 
service center for professional head cleaning.
