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.
