Daily care

Unit Damage/Data Destruction
CAUTION
The 8mm tape unit reads and writes data using a magnetic head.
This head becomes dirty due to dust, dirt and magnetic dust
particles off the tape inside data cartridges. If you do not
periodically clean the magnetic head using a cleaning cartridge, the
unit may become damaged or data may be lost.
The tape heads must be cleaned:
 After the 8mm tape drive has been used for more than 30 hours.
(Generally, we recommend periodic cleaning, e.g. "Monday morning every week.")
 If one month has passed since the last head cleaning, even if the 8mm tape drive has not been
used.
 Before you insert a brand new data cartridge.
 When the Warning LED and Ready LED blink simultaneously.
 If a cleaning instruction message is output on the console.
