Introduction

Cleaning the Video Heads

Digital video camcorders record video signals on the tape in very thin lines (as thin as

1/8 of the width of a hair). The following symptoms may appear if the video heads

become dirty even a little.

• Mosaic or other blocky video artifacts (Fig. 1) or banding

(Fig. 2) appear on the picture during playback.

• Sound becomes distorted, or there is no sound during

playback.

• The message “HEADS DIRTY, USE CLEANING CASSETTE”

appears.

If such symptoms appear, clean the video heads with the Canon

DVM-CL Digital Video Head Cleaning Cassette* or a

commercially available dry cleaning cassette.

If the symptoms reappear shortly after the cleaning, the

videocassette may be defective. Stop using it.

* Availability differs from area to area.

Video heads may become dirty under the following conditions:

• When using the camcorder in humid or hot places.

• When using cassettes with damaged or dirty tape.

• When using the camcorder in dusty places.

• When using the video heads without cleaning them for a long time.

NOTES

Before you make important recordings, clean the video heads and make a test recording first. We

also recommend cleaning the video heads after use, before storing the camcorder.

Do not use wet type cleaning cassettes as this may damage the camcorder.

Even after cleaning the video heads you may not be able to play back correctly tapes that were

recorded with dirty video heads.
