RED X Flashing!!

I had a red X in a circle flashing on the lcd.

If I am reading the manual correctly, this means that the cylinders are dirty....

Anyone?

Also.... is that as easy as running a head cleaning tape through it?
 
Yes, that is the Head Clog warning. I would recommend running a Panasonic cleaning tape through it for 10 seconds. If that doesn’t help, It may need to be cleaned manually. Barry has some cleaning instructions on this forum. I work on these cameras allot though and I see on a daily basis how many cameras come in because heads were damaged trying to clean them. So it may be worth having an Authorized Service Center just do a good cleaning on the entire camera. Worst-case scenario is that you may need your heads replaced, but by your description of the problem, that is unlikely.
