Troubleshooting Check

Moisture Condensation

If the camcorder is brought directly from a cold place to a warm place, moisture may form inside the camcorder,

on the surface of the tape, or on the lens. In this condition, the tape may stick to the head drum and be damaged or

the unit may not operate correctly.

 

 

To prevent possible damage under these circumstances,

 

the camcorder has the built-in moisture sensor.

 

DEW

If there is moisture inside the camcorder, “DEW(

)” is displayed.

If this happens, none of the functions except cassette ejection will work. Open the cassette compartment and remove the battery for at least two hours in a warm dry room. If the DEW protection

feature is unexpectedly activated and you want to override it:

(Please make sure that the condensation has disappeared completely.)

1. Remove the battery pack.

2. Remove the lithium battery.

3. Put the lithium battery back.

4.Re-fit the battery pack.
