Periodic Maintenance
A precision electromechanical device, the Hitachi VM-E625A requires maintenance after a period of normal use.
We expect that no other maintenance other than head cleaning will be required during the period of warranty
unless the camcorder is used either heavily or seldom. Defective parts are covered by the warranty. Normal
maintenance is the responsibility of the owner. Consult your dealer or local VCR service center for
recommendations regarding normal maintenance based on your use patterns, location, and the age of the
camcorder.
