3-1 Precautions
3-1-1 Use and Storage
Do not subject the unit to severe shocks; otherwise,
the internal mechanism may be damaged, or the
body distorted.
Use and storage locations
Store in a level, ventilated place. Avoid using or
storing the unit in the following places:
• Where it is subject to extreme of temperature.
• Very damp places.
• Places subject to severe vibration.
• Near strong magnetic fields.
• In direct sunlight for extended periods, or close to
heating apparatus.
Cleaning the tape heads
Clean the tape heads about once a week by using the
DT-10CL cleaning cassette.
How to clean the tape heads
While holding the EJECT key, insert the cleaning cassette.
Keep the EJECT key held down until "--cLEAninG--"
appears in the display.
The cassette is played back for about 10 seconds, then
ejected automatically.
When the tape reaches the end during playback, the cassette
rewinds to the beginning automatically, but is not ejected.
Replacement of head drum and lithium battery
The head drum and the lithium battery used in the unit
need to be replaced. To see the accumulated operation
time of the head drum, choose "Hour-t (HOUR
TIME)" of the Setup menu.
When you replace the head drum, also replace the
lithium battery for memory backup.
For the replacement, consult qualified Sony personnel.
3-1-2 Condensation
If you move the unit suddenly from a very cold place
to a warm place, or use it in a very damp location,
condensation may form on the head drum. If the unit
is operated in this state, the tape may adhere to the
drum, and cause a failure or even permanent damage.
Avoid operating the unit under the conditions
described above.
If condensation forms on the head drum, error code
"Error 2-01" appears on the display of the unit. In that
case, leave the unit switched on until the error code
disappears.
