Additional Information
On the pickup lens
• Do not touch the pickup lens inside the disc
cover. Keep the disc cover closed except when
inserting and removing the disc, to keep dust
out.
• When your camcorder does not work because
the pickup lens is dirty, clean it with a camera
blower (sold separately). Do not touch the
pickup lens directly during cleaning, because
this may cause the camcorder to malfunction.
About care and storage of the lens
• Wipe the surface of the lens clean with a soft
cloth in the following instances:
– When there are fingerprints on the lens
surface.
– In hot or humid locations
– When the lens is exposed to salty air such as
at the seaside.
• Store in a well-ventilated location subject to
little dirt or dust.
• To prevent mold, periodically clean the lens as
described above. It is recommended that you
operate your camcorder about once a month to
keep it in optimum state for a long time.
