Information
LCD
Clean the LCD screen using a commercially available cleaning cloth for glasses.
Where there is a big change in temperature, moisture may form on the surface
of the screen. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth.
At low temperatures the display may appear to be much darker than usual. This
is not a fault, and as the screen warms up the display will return to normal.
Camcorder body and lens
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the camcorder body or lens. Never use chemically
treated cloth or volatile solvents such as paint thinner.
Video heads
When the message “HEADS DIRTY, USE CLEANING CASSETTE” appears,
or when the playback picture becomes distorted, the video heads need to be
cleaned.
To maintain the best picture quality, we recommend cleaning the video heads
frequently with the Canon DVM-CL Digital Video Head Cleaning Cassette or a
commercially available dry cleaning cassette.
Do not use wet type cleaning cassettes as this may damage the camcorder.
Maintenance
If you do not intend to use the camcorder for some time, store it in an area which
is free of dust and moisture, and where the temperature is no higher than 86°F
(30°C). After storage, check each part and function of your camcorder to make
sure everything is still working properly.
Note:
These cautions also apply to accessories such as battery packs and cassettes.
