for ventilation (10 cm (3-15/16") or more on both sides, on
top and at the rear).
Do not block the ventilation holes.
(If the ventilation holes are blocked by a newspaper, or
cloth etc. the heat may not be able to get out.)
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should
be placed on the apparatus.
When discarding batteries, environmental problems must
be considered and the local rules or laws governing the
disposal of these batteries must be followed strictly.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or
splashing.
Do not use this equipment in a bathroom or places with
water.

(such as cosmetics or medicines, flower vases, potted
plants, cups etc.) on top of this unit.
(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this equipment, fire or
electric shock may be caused.)
Do not point the lens or the viewfinder directly into the sun.

The following notes concern possible physical damage to
the camcorder and to the user.
Carrying or holding the camcorder by the viewfinder and/or
the LCD monitor can result in dropping the unit, or in a
malfunction.
