ª About the AC adaptor
≥If the battery is warm, charging requires more
time than normal.
≥If the temperature of the battery is extremely
high or extremely low, the [CHARGE] lamp may
continue flashing, and the battery may not be
charged. After the battery temperature has
decreased or increased sufficiently, recharging
starts automatically. So, wait for a while. If the
lamp still continues flashing even after the
recharging, the battery or AC adaptor may be
faulty. If so, please contact a dealer.
≥If you use the AC adaptor near a radio, radio
reception may be disturbed. Keep the AC
adaptor 1 m (3.3 feet) or more away from radio.
≥When using the AC adaptor, it may generate
whirring sounds. However, this is normal.
≥After use, be sure to pull out the AC Cable from
the AC Jack. (If they are left connected, a
minute amount of current is consumed.)
≥Always keep the electrodes of the AC adaptor
and battery clean.
ª
About the cassette
Never place the cassette in a high temperature
place.
≥The tape may be damaged, producing
mosaic-like noise at the time of playback.
When storing the cassette after use, be sure
to rewind the tape to the beginning and take it
out.
≥If the cassette is left for more than 6 months
(depending on the storage condition) in the
Camcorder or stopped midway, the tape may
sag and be damaged.
≥Once every 6 months, wind the tape to the end
and then rewind it to the beginning. If the
cassette is left for 1 year or longer without
winding or rewinding, the tape may be deformed
by expansion or shrinkage attributable to
temperature and humidity. The wound tape may
stick to itself.
≥Dust, direct sunlight (ultraviolet rays), and
humidity may damage the tape. Such usage
may cause damage to the Camcorder and the
heads.
≥After use, be sure to rewind the tape to the
beginning, put the cassette in the case to
protect it from dust, and store it upright.
Keep the cassette away from strong
magnetism.
≥Apparatus using magnets such as magnetic
necklaces and toys have a magnetic force that
is stronger than expected, and they may erase
the contents of a recording or may increase
noise.
ª
LCD monitor/viewfinder
LCD monitor
≥When the LCD monitor gets dirty, wipe it with a
dry soft cloth.
≥In a place with drastic temperature changes,
condensation may form on the LCD monitor.
Wipe it with soft dry cloth.
≥If your Camcorder is extremely cold, the LCD
monitor is slightly darker than usual immediately
after you turn the power on. However, as the
internal temperature increases, it goes back to
normal brightness.
Viewfinder
ª
Periodical check-ups
≥To maintain the highest image quality, we
recommend replacing worn parts such as heads
after approx. 1000 hours of use. (This, however,
depends on operating conditions including
temperature, humidity and dust.)
Extremely high precision technology is
employed to produce the LCD monitor
screen featuring a total of approximately
123,000 pixels. The result is more than
99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of
the pixels inactive or always lit. However,
this is not a malfunction and does not affect
the recorded picture.
Extremely high precision technology is
employed to produce the viewfinder screen
featuring a total of approximately 113,000
pixels. The result is more than 99.99%
effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of the
pixels inactive or always lit. However, this is
not a malfunction and does not affect the
recorded picture.
