If the above problem, [a], [b] or [c] occurs, clean the video heads for 10 seconds with
the Sony DVM-12CLD cleaning cassette (optional). Check the picture and if the above
problem persists, repeat cleaning.

Note on the video head
The video head suffers from wear after long use. If you cannot obtain a clear image
even after using a cleaning cassette, it might be because the video head is worn. Please
contact your Sony dealer or local authorized Sony service facility to have the video head
replaced.
Cleaning the LCD screen
If fingerprints or dust make the LCD screen dirty, we recommend using a cleaning cloth
(supplied) to clean the LCD screen. When you use the LCD Cleaning Kit (optional), do
not apply the cleaning liquid directly to the LCD screen. Clean the LCD screen with
cleaning paper moistened with the liquid.
