Precautions
• Do not attach anything other than the supplied
label to the “Memory Stick” labeling position.
• Attach the label so that it does not stick out
beyond the labeling position.
• Carry and store the “Memory Stick” in its case.
• Do not touch the connector of the “Memory
Stick” with anything, including your finger or
metallic objects.
• Do not strike, bend, or drop the “Memory
Stick”.
• Do not disassemble or modify the “Memory
Stick”.
• Do not allow the “Memory Stick” to get wet.
• Do not use or store the “Memory Stick” in a
location that is:
- Extremely hot, such as in a car parked in the
sun
- Under direct sunlight
- Very humid or subject to corrosive substances
• To prevent data loss, make backups of data
frequently. In no event will Sony be liable for
any loss of data.
• Unauthorized recording may be contrary to the
provisions of copyright law. When you use a
“Memory Stick” that has been pre-recorded, be
sure that the material has been recorded in
accordance with copyright and other applicable
laws.
Use the BCT-HD12CL Cleaning Cassette to
clean the video and audio heads. Read the
instructions included with the cleaning cassette
carefully, as improper usage can damage the
heads.
When you insert the cleaning cassette, it is
automatically ejected after a cleaning operation
which lasts for about five seconds.
Note
Do not run the cleaning tape more than six times in
succession to avoid damaging the heads.
Refer to the instructions of the cleaning cassette for
detailed information about cleaning the video and
audio heads.
If you move the camcorder from a very cold place
to a warm place, or use it in a damp location,
condensation may form on the head drum. If the
camcorder is operated in this state, the tape may
adhere to the drum, causing a failure or even
permanent damage.
Note
Before moving the unit from a cold place to a warm
place, make sure no cassette is loaded in the unit.
When condensation is detected
If the condensation detection mechanism detects
condensation on the head drum during use, a
popup window appears on the display of the
control panel, displaying the message “VTR:
007F HUMID ERROR”
(see page 159)
.
See the figure under “Errors Detected in the VTR
Module” (page 157) for more information about this
and other error messages.
When condensation is detected, the camera enters tape
protection mode
(see page 158)
.
