Digital camcorder care
•When the digital camcorder is not to be used for a long time, disconnect the power
source and remove the tape. Periodically turn on the power, operate the camera and
player sections and play back a tape for about 3 minutes.
•Clean the lens with a soft brush to remove dust. If there are fingerprints on it, remove
them with a soft cloth.
•Clean the digital camcorder body with a dry soft cloth, or a soft cloth lightly
moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of solvent which may
damage the finish.

Charging
•Use only a lithium ion type battery pack.
•Place the battery pack on a flat surface without vibration during charging.
•The battery pack will get hot during charging. This is normal.
Others
•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet when not in use for a long time. To disconnect
the power cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the power cord itself.
•Do not operate the unit with a damaged cord or if the unit has been dropped or
damaged.
•Do not bend the power cord forcibly, or put a heavy object on it. This will damage the
cord and may cause a fire or electrical shock.
•Be sure that nothing metallic comes into contact with the metal parts of the connecting
plate. If this happens, a short may occur and the unit may be damaged.
•Always keep the metal contacts clean.
•Do not disassemble the unit.
•Do not apply mechanical shock or drop the unit.
•While the unit is in use, particularly during charging, keep it away from AM receivers
and video equipment because it will disturb AM reception and video operation.
•The unit becomes warm while in use. This is normal.
•Do not place the unit in locations that are:
– Extremely hot or cold
– Dusty or dirty
– Very humid
– Vibrating
If any difficulty should arise, unplug the unit and contact your nearest Sony dealer.
