Notes regarding the battery pack

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,

PB Z

O O

 

 

and it is left in STBY mode without being

 

 

operated for more than 5 minutes with a

 

 

tape installed, it will automatically turn itself off

 

 

to protect against unnecessary battery discharge.

 

 

Make sure that the battery pack is fitted firmly

 

 

into place.

 

 

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.

 

 

It is a good idea to use the viewfinder rather than the LCD when making long recordings, because the LCD uses up more battery power.

*When the battery reaches the end of its life, please contact your local dealer. The batteries have to be dealt with as chemical waste.

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.
