Be careful of moisture condensation:
• When you move the DVD video camera/re-
corder between places where the difference in
temperatures is great, such as entering a lodge
from a ski slope, or going out of a cooled room
or vehicle, condensation (vapor in air warmed
or cooled to water droplets) could occur on the
lens and/or inside the DVD video camera/re-
corder. If condensation occurs, do not open the
cover of disc insertion block if possible. If con-
densation occurs on the lens, wipe it off with a
soft, dry cloth. Even if the external surface of
the DVD video camera/recorder has dried, con-
densation may remain inside. Turn the DVD
video camera/recorder off and leave it in a dry
place for at least 1-2 hours before using it again.
Do not use the DVD video camera/
recorder for a long uninterrupted period of
time:
• This DVD video camera/recorder is designed
and produced for home-use recording and play-
back. Do not use it for an extended time con-
tinuously, e.g., as a surveillance camera/moni-
tor.
• If you use the DVD video camera/recorder for
a long uninterrupted period of time, the tem-
perature of DVD video camera/recorder may
exceed the limit and the recording/playback
operation could be slowed down. If this occurs,
turn it off and wait for a while before using it
again.
Be careful when removing the disc:
• When the DVD video camera/recorder is used
for a long period of time, the temperature of disc
will be high: Wait for a few moments before re-
moving the disc after the DVD video camera/
recorder is turned off.
Do not use the DVD video camera/
recorder near TV or radio:
• This could cause noise to appear on the TV
screen, or interference could enter radio broad-
casts.
Do not use the DVD video camera/
recorder near strong radio waves or
magnetism:
• If the DVD video camera/recorder is used near
strong radio waves or magnetism, such as near
radio wave tower or electric appliances contain-
ing motors, noise could enter video and audio
that are being recorded. During playback of nor-
mally recorded video and audio, noise could also
enter the picture and sound. At worst the DVD
video camera/recorder could malfunction.
Do not expose the DVD video camera/
recorder to soot or steam:
• Heavy soot or steam could damage the DVD
video camera/recorder case or cause malfunc-
tions.
Do not use the DVD video camera/
recorder near corrosive gas:
• Using it in a place where there is dense exhaust
gas generated by gasoline and diesel engines,
or corrosive gas such as hydrogen sulfide, could
corrode the battery connecting terminals, which
could result in loss of power.
Do not use the DVD video camera/
recorder near ultrasonic humidifier:
• With some water in humidifier, calcium and oth-
ers dissolved in water could scatter in the air,
and white particles could adhere to the optical
head of the DVD video camera/recorder, which
could cause it to operate abnormally.
Do not expose the DVD video camera/
recorder to insecticide:
• Insecticide entering the DVD video camera/re-
corder could dirty the optical head, and the DVD
video camera/recorder may not operate nor-
mally. Turn the DVD video camera/recorder off
and cover it with vinyl sheet, etc. before using
insecticide.
