MOISTURE
Avoid operating your camcorder immediately after moving it from a cold
place to a warm, humid place. Give the camcorder 2 to 3 hours to stabilize
in the ambient conditions of the surroundings before inserting a cassette.
When moved from a cold place to a warm, humid place, moisture may
condense on the head drum inside the machine. This moisture could
cause the tape to stick to the headwheel and damage the headwheel or
tape.
When a small amount of moisture is sensed, "TAPE" flashes in the
viewfinder. Remove the cassette and set the CAM/OFF/VIDEO switch to
OFF, then wait for about one hour.
