INTRODUCTION  
Precautions  
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 mainte-  
nance 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.  
Place of storage and use  
Maintaining the unit (Please turn off the  
power before performing maintenance  
work.)  
Please avoid storing or using this VTR in the fol-  
lowing places:  
Please wipe the unit with a soft cloth. Do not wipe  
it with thinner or benzene lest the surface melts  
or becomes dull. For stubborn stains, wipe first  
with a water-diluted neutral detergent and then  
wipe dry.  
Extremely hot or cold places beyond the al-  
lowable temperature for operation (5˚C – 40˚C)  
Regular inspection (maintenance)  
Humid or dry places beyond the allowable hu-  
midity range for operation (30% –80% RH)  
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:  
Dusty or sandy places  
Places exposed to oil, smoke or steam, such  
as the kitchen vicinity  
Please use the provided AC adapter to  
connect the VTR to a power source.

Maintenance necessity and fre-  
quency depends on the environment  
and usage. The above information  
serves only as a guide.  
Places near devices that generate electric  
waves, e.g., transceiver or mobile phone  
Gears  
Driving components  
Places that generate radiation, X-rays or cor-  
rosive gases  
Usage Time  
: You can check the drum usage time via the hour meter display.  
For details, please refer to page 69, “Checking the hour meter”.  
Maintenance consultation  
: For details on the maintenance plan and fee, please consult with  
your nearest JVC-authorized service agent.  
Handling the unit  
Please do not place heavy objects on theVTR,  
like a monitor or TV.  
Head cleaning  
If dust adheres on the head, “HEAD CLEANING  
REQUIRED!” will be displayed on the monitor  
when this unit plays a tape.  
Please do not insert foreign objects into the  
cassette slot.  
Recording or playing back with a stained head  
will result in block noise or disrupted sound.  
Please perform regular head cleaning to main-  
tain superior image and sound quality.  
Mind your finger when loading the cassette.  
Please be careful not to get your fingers  
clamped when loading the cassette to prevent  
injury.  
Place thisVTR out of reach of young children.  
As injury may result from fingers getting  
clamped when loading the cassette, please  
keep this VTR out of reach of young children.  
HEAD CLEANING REGUIRED!  
Please do not block the ventilation openings.  
Block noise  
Avoid violent shocks to the unit. Do not drop  
the unit.  
For information on how to use the head cleaning  
tape and the relevant precautions, please refer  
to page 8, “Precautions on the use of cleaning  
tape”.  
Please remove the cassette tape from the cas-  
sette slot when transporting the unit.

INTRODUCTION  
Precautions on the use of cleaning tape  
Condensation  
Please use cleaning tape produced by JVC.  
Memo:  
When condensation occurs, the monitor displays  
the following warning:  
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 drop-  
lets of water. This state is known as condensa-  
tion. When condensation occurs, the videotape  
will adhere to the head drum or the tape guides  
and will be damaged.  
1. Under low humidity conditions, (10% RH to  
30% RH), please perform head cleaning at  
intervals of half of the following stated periods.  
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.)  
2. If M-DV80 is used immediately after cleaning,  
the VTR warning (“HEAD CLEANING  
CONDENSATION ON DRUM  
REQUIRED!”) may disappear only after the  
tape has run for some time.  
• After loading the cleaning tape, press the  
PLAY button.  
3. Please use the cleaning tape at room tempera-  
ture (10˚C to 35˚C).  
Condensation occurs on this unit in the following  
circumstances:  
2. For a single cleaning session, use it up to 4  
times.  
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.  
To remedy, leave the unit with the power ON and  
wait until the WARNING indicator disappears.  
• It is moved abruptly from a cold place to a warm  
place.  
3. Please refer to the following table as a guide  
for cleaning:  
• 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.  
Prevention of condensation

When transporting the BR-DV3000 from a cold  
to a warmer place abruptly, first take out the cas-  
sette.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 sur-  
roundings. This will prevent condensation.

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.
