Serious malfunctioning
If malfunctioning occurs, stop using the unit
immediately and consult your local JVC dealer.
The camcorder is a microcomputer-controlled
device. External noise and interference (from a TV,
a radio, etc.) might prevent it from functioning
properly. In such cases, first disconnect its power
supply unit (battery pack, AC Adapter, etc.) and wait
a few minutes and then re-connect it and proceed
as usual from the beginning.
About moisture condensation . . .
●
You have observed that pouring a cold liquid into a
glass will cause drops of water to form on the glass
outer surface. This same phenomenon occurs on the
head drum of a camcorder when it is moved from a
cool place to a warm place, after heating a cold room,
under extremely humid conditions or in a place directly
subjected to the cool air from an air conditioner.
●
Moisture on the head drum can cause severe
damage to the video tape, and can lead to internal
damage to the camcorder itself.
