Daily maintenance and regular inspection

This unit uses consumables or components that will wear off. If a worn-out or deteriorated component continues to be used, it may cause the unit to break down. To prevent this, please perform daily mainte­nance using the head-cleaning tape. With the head-cleaning tape alone, however, the entire tape-winding mechanism cannot be completely cleaned. Please perform regular maintenance of the components as shown below.
Regular inspection (maintenance)
The tasks of maintenance involved are similar to that of replacing the engine oil or tire of a car. Depending on the number of usage hours, please clean, inspect or replace the components as follows:

INTRODUCTION

Precautions on the use of cleaning tape

Please use cleaning tape produced by JVC.
Please follow the instructions below when using the cleaning tape.
1.
The tape will run for 10 seconds in the PLAY mode. (Thereafter, it stops automatically and enters the STOP mode.)
• After loading the cleaning tape, press the PLAY button.
2.
For a single cleaning session, use it up to 4 times.
3.
Please refer to the following table as a guide for cleaning:
Operating environment
Low temperature Room temperature High temperature
of the unit 5˚C to 10˚C 10˚C to 35˚C 35˚C to 40˚C
Guide for using 1 to 2 times every 1 to 2 times every 1 to 2 times every cleaning tape 5 hours 20 to 30 hours 5 hours
Memo:
1. Under low humidity conditions, (10% RH to 30% RH), please perform head cleaning at intervals of half of the following stated periods.
2. If M-DV80 is used immediately after cleaning, the VTR warning (“HEAD CLEANING
REQUIRED!”) may disappear only after the tape has run for some time.
3. Please use the cleaning tape at room tempera­ture (10˚C to 35˚C).
4. Instructions for using the cleaning tape are stated inside its case. The contents may be slightly different from those stated here. Please follow the instructions in this manual.

Cassette tape

This unit can record onto and playback standard DV and mini DV cassette tapes (for SP mode only). Please use the following JVC cassettes with the or the logos.
Erasure prevention
DV cassettes have a safety slide at the back to prevent accidental erasure.
To prevent accidental erasure of important
records, push the slide to the “SAVE” position.
To record, push the slide to the “REC” posi-
tion.

Memo
DVCAM cassettes can be recorded in DV format. Tapes recorded in DVCAM format can be played
(SP Mode).
M-DV80 cassettes(Mini DV 80min tape) cannot be used with this unit.
Precautions on the use of tape
Reverse sides of videotapes cannot be used.
Please store the tape only after it has been fully rewound, so as to avoid damaging the tape.
Please store the cassette in places low in humidity, well-ventilated and fungus-proof.
When a cassette is used repeatedly, noise may increase due to e.g., dropout, etc. hence affecting its
performance. Please do not use dirty or damaged tapes as they will shorten the life span of the rotation head.

Condensation

When this unit is moved from a cold to a warm place abruptly, the vapor in the warm air will come into contact with the head drum or the tape guides. When chilled, the vapor turns into drop­lets of water. This state is known as condensa­tion. When condensation occurs, the videotape will adhere to the head drum or the tape guides and will be damaged.
Condensation occurs on this unit in the following circumstances:
• It is moved abruptly from a cold place to a warm
place.
• It is used in a room immediately after the heater
has been turned on, or when cold breeze from an air-conditioner blows onto it.
• It is used at a place of high humidity.
When condensation occurs, the monitor displays the following warning:
When a cassette tape is loaded, please do not transport e.g., from an external cold place to a warm room thereby subjecting the unit to dras­tic temperature changes.
After moving the unit, please do not use it until the innards are stabilized.
Head drum
Videotape
To remedy, leave the unit with the power ON and wait until the WARNING indicator disappears.
Prevention of condensation
When transporting the BR-DV3000 from a cold to a warmer place abruptly, first take out the cas­sette. Then place the BR-DV3000 in a plastic bag and seal it before transporting the camera. Leave the BR-DV3000 in the sealed plastic bag until the camera has the same temperature as the sur­roundings. This will prevent condensation.
