Operating precautions
Do not allow any water to get into the camera-
recorder when using it in the rain or snow or at the
beach.
Failure to heed this caution will cause the camera-
recorder or cassette to malfunction (and may result in
irreparable damage).
Keep the camera-recorder away from equipment
(such as TV sets and video game machines) that
generate magnetic fields.
Using the camera-recorder on top of or near a TV set
may cause distortion in the images and/or sound due
to the electromagnetic waves that the set emits.
The powerful magnetic fields generated by speakers
or large motors may damage your tape recordings or
distort the images.
The electromagnetic waves emitted from a micro-
computer will adversely affect the camera-recorder,
causing the images and/or sound to be distorted.
If the camera-recorder is so adversely affected by
products that generate magnetic fields that it no
longer operates properly, turn it off and remove the
battery or unplug the AC adapter from the power out
-
let. Then install the battery again or re-connect the
AC adapter. After this, turn the camera-recorder back
on.
Do not use the camera-recorder near radio trans-
mitters or high-voltage equipment.
Using the camera-recorder near a radio transmitter or
high-voltage equipment may adversely affect the
recorded images and/or sound.
Do not allow any sand or dust to get into the cam-
era-recorder when using it at the beach and other
similar places.
Sand and dust can damage the camera-recorder and
cassette. (Be especially careful when inserting or
removing the cassettes.)
AC adapter and battery
If the battery has become extremely hot or cold or if it
has not been used for a long time and has no charge,
the CHARGE lamp will blink several times and charg
-
ing will start automatically.
If the CHARGE lamp continues to blink even when
the battery temperature is normal, it may mean that
something is wrong with the battery or AC adapter.
Consult your dealer.
When the battery is warm, it will take longer to charge
than normal.
When the AC adapter is used near a radio, the sound
from the radio may be distorted. Keep the AC adapter
at least a yard away from the radio.
Noise may be heard while the AC adapter is being
used; however, this is not a sign of malfunctioning.
Do not drop the camera-recorder while carrying it.
Strong impact may damage the camera-recorder to
the extent that it will no longer operate properly.
When carrying the camera-recorder around, use the
hand strap, handle or shoulder strap, and remember
to handle it carefully.
Do not expose the camera-recorder to insect
sprays or volatile substances.
Contact with insect sprays or volatile substances may
distort the shape of the camera-recorder and/or
cause its finish to peel off.
Do not leave the camera-recorder in contact with rub-
ber or PVC products for extended periods of time.
After use, always remove the cassette and remove
the battery or unplug the AC cord from the power
outlet.
If the cassette is left inside the camera-recorder, the
tape may become slack or damaged.
Leaving the battery on the camera-recorder for an
extended period may cause the battery voltage to
drop excessively, and it may not be possible to re-use
it even after charging it.
