About AC Adaptor
≥
If the temperature of the Battery is extremely
high or extremely low, the [CHARGE] Lamp may
continue flashing, and the Battery may not be
charged. After the temperature of the Battery
has decreased or increased sufficiently, charging
starts automatically. If the [CHARGE] Lamp
continues to flash even after the Battery
temperature has decreased or increased
sufficiently, the Battery or AC Adaptor may be
faulty. In this case, please contact a dealer.
≥
If the Battery is warm, charging takes a longer
time than normal.
≥
If you use the AC Adaptor near a radio, radio
reception may be disturbed. Keep the AC
Adaptor 1 metre or more away from radio.
≥
When the AC Adaptor is in use, it may generate
whirring sounds. However, this is normal.
≥
After use, be sure to pull out the AC Mains Lead
from the AC mains socket. (If they are left
connected, a minute amount of current is
consumed.)
≥
Keep the electrodes of the AC Adaptor and
Battery always clean.
ª
Condensation
If the Condensation Indication flashes after the
Movie Camera is turned on, condensation has
formed inside the Movie Camera. In this case, the
Movie Camera power is turned off automatically
after about 1 minute.
Follow the steps below:
1
Take out the Cassette.
≥
None of the other functions operate.
Depending on the amount of condensation,
removing the Cassette may even become
difficult. If this happens, wait for 2 to 3 hours
before taking the Cassette out.
2
Open the Cassette Compartment
Cover and wait for 2 to 3 hours.
≥
The number of hours to wait depends on the
amount of condensation and ambient
temperature.
3
2 to 3 hours later, turn on the Movie
Camera power and check to see if the
Condensation Indication is displayed.
≥
Even if the Condensation Indication is not
displayed, as a precaution, please wait for
another hour before using the Movie
Camera.
