Cautions
Battery Pack
The supplied battery pack is
a lithium-ion battery. Before
using the supplied battery
pack or an optional battery
pack, be sure to read the
following cautions:
Terminals
•
To avoid hazards
...
do not
burn.
...
do not
short-circuit the terminals. Keep it away
from metallic objects when not in use. When
transporting, make sure the provided battery
cap is attached to the battery. If the battery cap
is misplaced, carry the battery in a plastic bag.
...
do not
modify or disassemble.
...
do not
expose the battery to temperatures
exceeding 60°C, as this may cause the battery
to overheat, explode or catch fire.
... use only specified chargers.
•
To prevent damage and prolong service life
... do not subject to unnecessary shock.
... charge within the temperature range of 10°C
to 35°C.
Cooler temperatures require
longer charging time, or in some cases
stop charging at all. Warmer temperatures
prevent complete charging, or in some
cases stop charging at all.
... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure
to high temperatures will increase natural
discharge and shorten service life.
... fully charge and then fully discharge the battery
every 6 months when storing the battery pack
over a long period of time.
... remove from charger or powered unit when not
in use, as some machines use current even
when switched off.
Recording Medium
•
Be sure to follow the guidelines below
to prevent corruption or damage to your
recorded data.
•
Do not bend or drop the recording medium, or
subject it to strong pressure, jolts or vibrations.
•
Do not splash the recording medium with water.
•
Do not use, replace, or store the recording
medium in locations that are exposed to strong
static electricity or electrical noise.
•
Do not turn off the camcorder power or remove
the battery or AC adapter during shooting,
playback, or when otherwise accessing the
recording medium.
•
Do not bring the recording medium near objects
that have a strong magnetic field or that emit
strong electromagnetic waves.
•
Do not store the recording medium in locations
with high temperature or high humidity.
•
Do not touch the metal parts.
•
When formatting or erasing data using
the camcorder, only the file administration
information is changed. The data is not
completely erased from the hard disk. If you
want to completely erase all of the data,
we recommend either using commercially
available software that is specially designed for
that purpose, or by physically destroying the
camcorder with a hammer etc.
Hard Disk
•
Do not use the unit where it is subject to
vibrations or loud sounds.
•
If you move the unit suddenly, the drop detection
function may operate and the power may be
turned off.
LCD Monitor
•
To prevent damage to the LCD monitor, DO
NOT
... push it strongly or apply any shocks.
... place the camcorder with LCD monitor on the
bottom.
•
To prolong service life
... avoid rubbing it with coarse cloth.
