Recordings on the tape may be damaged, or 
images may be distorted, by strong magnetic 
fields created by speakers or large motors.

Electromagnetic wave radiation generated by 
digital circuits including microprocessor may 
adversely affect the movie camera, causing the 
disturbance of images and sounds.

If the movie camera is affected by such 
equipment and does not function properly, turn 
off the movie camera power and detach the 
battery or AC adaptor. Then, connect the 
battery or AC adaptor again and turn on the 
movie camera power.

Do not use your movie camera near radio 
transmitters or high-voltage cables.

If you record pictures near radio transmitters or 
high-voltage cables, recorded images or sounds 
may be adversely affected.

Do not spray insecticides or volatile 
chemicals onto the movie camera.

If the movie camera is sprayed with such 
chemicals, the camera body may become 
deformed and the surface finish may peel off.

Do not keep rubber or plastic products in 
contact with the movie camera for a long time.

When you use your movie camera in a sandy 
or dusty place such as on a beach, do not let 
sand or fine dust get into the body and 
terminals of the movie camera. Also, protect 
the movie camera from getting wet.

Sand or dust may damage the movie camera or 
cassette. (Care should be taken when inserting 
and removing a cassette.) 

If sea water splashes onto the movie camera, 
wet a soft cloth with tap water, wring it well, and 
use it to wipe the camera body carefully. Then, 
wipe it again thoroughly with a soft dry cloth.

While carrying the movie camera, do not drop 
or bump it.

A strong impact on the movie camera may 
break its housing, causing it to malfunction.

Do not use benzine, paint thinner or alcohol 
for cleaning the movie camera.

Before cleaning, detach the battery or pull out 
the AC mains lead from the AC mains socket.

The camera body may be discoloured and the 
surface finish may peel off.

Wipe the movie camera with a soft dry cloth to 
remove dust and fingerprints. To remove 
stubborn stains, wring well a cloth that is soaked 
in a neutral detergent diluted with water and 
wipe the movie camera with it. Afterwards, wipe 
it with a dry cloth.

When you use a chemical dust cloth, follow the 
instructions.

Do not use this movie camera for surveillance 
purposes or other business use.

If you use the movie camera for a long time, the 
internal temperature increases and, 
consequently, this may cause malfunction.

This movie camera is not intended for business 
use.

About the battery

The battery used in the movie camera is a 
rechargeable lithium ion battery. This battery is 
susceptible to temperature and humidity, and the 
effect of temperature increases with increasing or 
decreasing temperature. In the low temperature 
range, the fully charged indication may not 
appear, or the low battery indication may appear 
about 5 minutes after the start of use. At high 
temperature, moreover, the protection function 
may work, disabling use of the movie camera.

Be sure to detach the battery after use

If the battery is left attached to the movie 
camera, a minute amount of current is 
consumed even when the movie camera power 
is [OFF]. If the battery is left attached to the 
movie camera for a long time, over-discharge 
takes place. The battery may become unusable 
after it is charged.

Prepare spare batteries when going out for 
recording.

Prepare batteries appropriate to 3 to 4 times the 
period during you want to record pictures in. In 
cold places such as a ski resort, the period 
during which you can record pictures is 
shortened. 

When you travel, do not forget to bring an AC 
adaptor so that you can recharge the batteries 
at your destination.

If you drop the battery accidentally, check to 
see if the terminals are deformed.

Attaching a deformed battery to the movie 
camera or AC adaptor may damage the movie 
camera or AC adaptor.

After use, be sure to take the cassette out and 
detach the battery from the movie camera or 
pull out the AC mains lead from AC mains 
socket.

The battery should be stored in a cool place free 
from humidity, with as constant temperature as 
possible. (Recommended temperature: 15

o

C to 

25

o

C, Recommended humidity: 40% to 60%) 

Extremely high temperatures or low 
temperatures will shorten the life of the battery.

If the battery is kept in a high-temperature, high-
humidity, or oily-smoky places, the terminals 
may rust and cause malfunctions.
