2. To prevent damage and prolong service
life . . .
.... do not subject to unnecessary shock.
.... avoid repeated charging without fully
discharging.
.... charge in an environment where tempera-
tures are within the tolerances shown in the
chart below. This is a chemical reaction type
battery—cooler temperatures impede
chemical reaction, while warmer tempera-
tures can prevent complete charging.
.... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure
to high temperatures will increase natural
discharge and shorten service life.
.... avoid prolonged uncharged storage.
.... remove from charger or powered unit when
not in use, as some machines use current
even when switched off.
NOTES:
●
It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after
charging, or after use.
Temperature Range Specifications
Charging ........................... 10°C to 35°C
Operation ......................... 0°C to 40°C
Storage ............................. –10°C to 30°C
●
Recharging time is based on room temperature of
20°C.
●
The lower the temperature, the longer recharging
takes.
Cassettes
To properly use and store your cassettes, be sure to
read the following cautions:
1. During use . . .
.... make sure the cassette bears the VHS-C
mark.
.... be aware that recording onto prerecorded
tapes automatically erases the previously
recorded video and audio signals.
.... make sure the cassette is positioned properly
when inserting.
.... do not load and unload the cassette
repeatedly without allowing the tape to run
at all. This slackens the tape and can result in
damage.
.... do not open the front tape cover. This
exposes the tape to fingerprints and dust.
2. Store cassettes . . .
.... away from heaters or other heat sources.
.... out of direct sunlight.
.... where they won’t be subject to unnecessary
shock or vibration.
.... where they won’t be exposed to strong
magnetic fields (such as those generated by
motors, transformers or magnets).
.... vertically, in their original cases.
