Condensation
Moving the camcorder rapidly between
hot and cold temperatures 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
quickly from cold to warm places
• When the camcorder is left in a humid
room
• When a cold room is heated rapidly
• Do not expose the camcorder to
sudden or extreme changes in
temperature.
• Place the camcorder in an airtight
plastic bag and let it adjust gradually
to temperature changes before
removing it from the bag.
The camcorder automatically shuts off.
The precise time required for water
droplets to evaporate will vary
depending on the location and weather
conditions. As a general rule, wait for 2
hours before resuming use of the
camcorder.
