Cleaning
This chapter explains cleaning for this product.
Head cleaning will be performed automatically when a cleaning cartridge is inserted into this
product. Cleaning takes between two to four minutes. The cleaning cartridge is ejected when cleaning
operations are complete.
This product uses a magnetic head to write and read data. If soiled with dust or dirt, the
magnetic head does not read or write data correctly. Also, it could reduce the life of the data
cartridge, scratch the magnetic surface of the tape, or cause other kinds of trouble making it
impossible to use. To avoid trouble, clean the head occasionally using a cleaning cartridge.
