Precautions
Cleaning the LCD screen
Wipe the screen surface with a cleaning
cloth (not supplied) or a LCD cleaning kit
(not supplied) to remove fingerprints, dust,
etc.
Cleaning the camera surface
Clean the camera surface with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with water, then wipe the
surface dry. Do not use any type of solvent
such as thinner, alcohol or benzene as this
may damage the finish or the casing.
After using your camera at the
seashore or other dusty locations
Clean your camera carefully. Otherwise, the
salty air may corrode the metal fittings or
dust may enter the inside of your camera,
causing a malfunction.
Your camera is designed for use between the
temperatures of 32°F and 104°F (0°C and
40°C). Recording in extremely cold or hot
places that exceed this range is not
recommended.
If the camera is brought directly from a cold
to a warm location, or is placed in a very
damp room, moisture may condense inside
or outside the camera. Should this occur, the
camera will not operate properly.
Moisture condensation occurs
easily when:
•
The camera is brought from a cold location
such as a ski slope into a warmly heated
room.
•
The camera is taken from an air-
conditioned room or car interior to the hot
outdoors, etc.
How to prevent moisture
condensation
When bringing the camera from a cold place
to a warm place, seal the camera in a plastic
bag and allow it to adapt to conditions at the
new location over a period of time (about an
hour).
If moisture condensation occurs
Turn off the camera and wait about an hour
for the moisture to evaporate. Note that if
you attempt to record with moisture
remaining inside the lens, you will be unable
to record clear images.
•
Unplug the unit from the wall outlet
(mains) when you are not using the unit for
a long time.
•
To disconnect the power cord (mains lead),
pull it out by the plug. Never pull the
power cord (mains lead) 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 (mains lead)
forcibly, or place a heavy object on it. This
will damage the cord and may cause fire or
electrical shock.
•
Prevent metallic objects from coming into
contact with the metal parts of the
connecting section. If this happens, a short
may occur and the unit may be damaged.
•
Always keep 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. AM reception and
video operation are disturbed.
•
The unit becomes warm during use. This is
not a malfunction.
•
Do not place the unit in locations that are:
—Extremely hot or cold
—Dusty or dirty
—Very humid
—Vibrating
