Remarks on the use of tape
Do not load the videotape in the wrong direction.
Store the tape only after it has been fully rewound, so as to avoid damaging the tape.
Store the cassette in places low in humidity, well-ventilated and fungus-proof.
When a cassette tape is used repeatedly, noise may increase due to e.g., dropout, etc. hence
affecting its performance. Do not use dirty or damaged tapes as they will shorten the life span of the
rotation head.
Notes
Under low humidity conditions, (10% RH to
30% RH), perform head cleaning at intervals
of half of the periods stated in the table.
If an M-DV80 tape is used immediately after
cleaning, the message, “HEAD CLEANING
REQUIRED!” may not disappear. It does only
after the tape has run for some time.
Use the cleaning tape at room temperature
(10˚C to 35˚C).
Instructions for using the cleaning tape stated
on a sheet inside its storage case may be
different in part from those stated here.
Follow the instructions in this manual.
