capacity which can be used on the unit, a
computer etc.
≥
During prolonged use, the unit’s surfaces and
the SD card will heat up slightly. This is normal.
When inserting or removing the SD card,
always set the OFF/ON switch to OFF.
While this unit accesses the SD card (while
/
is being displayed/the access lamp
is lit), do not open the card slot cover and
remove the SD card, operate the mode dial,
turn off the power or shake or impact the unit.

About the miniSD Card
≥
Be sure to insert miniSD Cards in the
dedicated card adaptor before use. Inserting a
card in this unit without the adaptor may
damage the unit or the card.
≥
Do not insert an empty card adaptor in this
unit. Do not leave the adaptor in this unit while
inserting or removing miniSD Cards. This may
cause the unit to malfunction.
≥
When the LCD monitor gets dirty, wipe it with a
dry soft cloth.
≥
In a place with drastic temperature changes,
condensation may form on the LCD monitor.
Wipe it with soft dry cloth.
≥
When the unit has become very cold, for
example due to storage in a cold area, its LCD
monitor will be slightly darker than usual
immediately after the power is turned on. The
normal brightness will be restored when the
unit’s internal temperature rises.
If condensation forms on the unit, the lens will
cloud up, the HDD may be damaged and the unit
may not work properly. Make every effort to
ensure that condensation does not form. If it
does form, take the actions described below.
Causes of condensation
Condensation takes place when the ambient
temperature or humidity is changed as
follows.
≥
When this unit is brought inside from the cold
(e.g. a ski slope) to a warm room.
≥
When this unit is moved from an
air-conditioned car to outside.
≥
When a cold room has been warmed up
quickly.
≥
When cool wind from an air conditioner is
directly blown onto this unit.
≥
After summer afternoon showers of rain.
≥
When this unit is in a very humid place where
the air is thick with steam. (e.g. a heated
swimming pool)
When this unit is taken to a location with a
significant temperature difference such as
from a cold place to a hot place.
If, for example, you have used this unit for
recording on a ski slope and are taking it into a
heated room, place the unit inside a plastic bag,
remove as much of the air from inside the bag as
possible, then seal the bag. Leave the unit for
about an hour in the room so the temperature of
the unit is close to the ambient temperature of
the room, then use it.
What to do if the lens is fogged up.
Remove the battery or AC adaptor and leave the
unit for about 1 hour. When the unit becomes
close to the ambient temperature, the fog
disappears naturally.
LCD monitor
Extremely high precision technology is
employed to produce the LCD Monitor screen
featuring a total of approximately 123,000
pixels. The result is more than 99.99%
effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of the
pixels inactive or always lit. However, this is
not a malfunction and does not affect the
recorded picture.
