Video Heads ❍ When the message "HEADS DIRTY, USE CLEANING CASSETTE" appears, or when the playback picture becomes distorted, the video heads need to be cleaned. ❍ To maintain the best picture quality, we recommend cleaning the video heads frequently with the Canon DVM-CL Digital Video Head Cleaning Cassette or a commercially available dry cleaning cassette. ❍ Tapes already recorded with dirty video heads may not be played back correctly even when you clean the video heads. ❍ Do not use wet type cleaning cassettes as this may damage the camcorder. Condensation Moving the camcorder rapidly between hot and cold temperature may cause condensation (water droplets) to form on its internal surfaces. Stop using the camcorder if condensation is detected. Continued use may damage the camcorder. Condensation may form in the following cases: When the camcorder is moved from an airconditioned room to a warm, humid place When the camcorder is moved from a cold place to a warm room When the camcorder is left in a humid room When a cold room is heated rapidly 110

Video Heads
❍
When the message “HEADS DIRTY, USE CLEANING CASSETTE” appears, or when the playback picture
becomes distorted, the video heads need to be cleaned.
❍
To maintain the best picture quality, we recommend cleaning the video heads frequently with the
Canon DVM-CL Digital Video Head Cleaning Cassette or a commercially available dry cleaning
cassette.
❍
Tapes already recorded with dirty video heads may not be played back correctly even when you
clean the video heads.
❍
Do not use wet type cleaning cassettes as this may damage the camcorder.
Condensation
Moving the camcorder rapidly between hot and cold temperature may cause condensation (water
droplets) to form on its internal surfaces. Stop using the camcorder if condensation is detected.
Continued use may damage the camcorder.
Condensation may form in the following cases:
When the camcorder is moved from an air-
conditioned room to a warm, humid place
When the camcorder is moved from a cold place
to a warm room
When the camcorder is left in a humid room
When a cold room is heated rapidly
