Notes regarding the Battery Pack
■
Be sure to use a recommended battery pack as described on page 22. The batteries are available at a SAMSUNG retailer.
■
Make sure that the Battery pack is fully charged before starting to record.
■
To preserve battery power, keep your Camcorder turned off when you are not operating it.
■
If your Camcorder is in CAMERA mode, and it is left in STBY mode without being operated for more than 5 minutes with a
tape inserted, it will automatically turn itself off to protect against unnecessary battery discharge.
■
Make sure that the Battery pack is fitted firmly into place.
Do not drop the Battery pack. Dropping the Battery pack may damage it.
■
A brand-new Battery pack is not charged.
Before using the Battery pack, you need to charge it completely.
■
Fully discharging a Lithium-Ion battery damages the internal cells. The Battery pack may be prone to leakage when fully
discharged.
Notes regarding the Video Head Cleaning
■
To ensure normal recording and a clear picture, clean the video heads regularly.
If a square block-shape distorts playback, or only a blue screen is displayed, the video heads may be dirty.
If this happens, clean the video heads with a dry type cleaning cassette.
■
Do not use a wet type cleaning cassette. It may damage the video heads.
