Tape Care and Storage
• When finished with a tape, rewind it, remove it from the camcorder, and label it.
Protect the tape using the erase protection tab if necessary.
• Store tapes vertically in their protective cases at normal room temperatures. Never
leave the camcorder or tapes in a car or outdoors for an extended period of time.
Excessive heat or cold might damage tapes.
• Keep tapes away from strong magnetic fields such as electric motors, speakers and
other devices.
• Keep dust from entering the cassette tape compartment. All dust is abrasive and
causes excessive wear on the tape and the camcorder’s recording and playback
heads.
• Never use tapes with damaged or spliced tape.
• Do not use a tape if it has been damaged or exposed to moisture. The tape might
jam and/or damage the camcorder.
CD-ROM Care
• Take care not to soil or scratch the mirror surface (opposite to the printed surface).
Do not write anything or put a sticker on either the front or back surface. If the CD-
ROM gets dirty, gently wipe it with a soft cloth outward from the center hole using a
circular motion.
• Do not use conventional disc cleaners or cleaning spray.
• Do not bend the CD-ROM or touch its mirror surface.
• Do not store your CD-ROM in a dusty, hot or humid environment. Keep it away from
direct sunlight.
