Maintenance & additional information
When there is dew condensation, put the camcorder aside
for a while before using
• What is dew condensation?
Dew condensation happens when a camcorder is moved to a
location where there is a significant temperature difference from
the previous location. The dew condenses on the external or
internal parts of the camcorder, and on the reflection lens. If there
is dew on or in your camcorder, it may cause the camcorder to
malfunction or damage the camcorder when you turn the power
on.
• Exactly when does dew condensation occur?
When you move the camera to a location with a higher
temperature than the previous location, or when you move it to a
hot area suddenly. Examples:
- You record outside in cold weather during the winter and
then move the camera in indoors.
- You record outside in hot weather after being indoors or
inside a car where the A/C was running.
• What can I do?
- Turn the power off, detach the battery, and leave the
camcorder in a dry area for 1~2 hours before using it.
• Use the camcorder only after dew condensation has completely
disappeared.
• Be sure to use the recommended accessories supplied with the
camcorder. For service, contact your nearest Samsung authorized
service center.
USING YOUR CAMCORDER ABROAD
• Each country or region has its own electric and color systems.
• Before using your camcorder abroad, check the following items.
Power sources
The power adaptor provided lets you power, recharge, and use your
camcorder in any country/region that has the power in the 100 V to
240 V, 50/60 Hz range. You may need a commercially available AC
plug adaptor depending on the design of local wall outlets.
On TV color systems
Your camcorder is an NTSC based camcorder. If you want to view
your recordings on a TV or copy them to an external device, it must
be an NTSC based TV or external device and have the appropriate
Audio/Video jacks. Otherwise, you may need to use a separate
video format transcoder (For example, an NTSC to PAL format
converter).
The format transcoder is not provided by Samsung.
