Others
* SLV-XA37PS/XA137PS only
Auto head cleaner
The unit incorporates an auto head cleaner which cleans the video heads when a tape
is loaded or unloaded. When the heads are not sufficiently clean, even after a tape
has been loaded/unloaded several times, use a video head cleaning cassette.
Sapphire tape cleaner
The unit incorporates a sapphire tape cleaner which cleans a video tape when it is
loaded. This cleaner can prevent the video heads from contamination by removing
dust or mold from a tape with the sapphire edge (SLV-XA127PS/XA137PS only).
