Precautions

On use and care

Do not use or store the camcorder and accessories in the following locations:

Anywhere extremely hot, cold or humid. Never leave them exposed to temperatures above 60 C (140 °F), such as under direct sunlight, near heaters or in a car parked in the sun. They may malfunction or become deformed.

Near strong magnetic fields or mechanical vibration. The camcorder may malfunction.

Near strong radio waves or radiation. The camcorder may not be able to record properly.

Near AM receivers and video equipment. Noise may occur.

On a sandy beach or anywhere dusty. If sand or dust gets in your camcorder, it may malfunction. Sometimes this malfunction cannot be repaired.

Near windows or outdoors, where the LCD screen or the lens may be exposed to direct sunlight. This damages the inside of the LCD screen.

Operate your camcorder on DC 6.8 V/7.2 V (battery pack) or DC 8.4 V (AC Adaptor).

For DC or AC operation, use the accessories recommended in these operating instructions.

Do not let your camcorder get wet, for example, from rain or sea water. If your camcorder

gets wet, it may malfunction. Sometimes this malfunction cannot be repaired.

If any solid object or liquid gets inside the casing, unplug your camcorder and have it checked by a Sony dealer before operating it any further.

Avoid rough handling, disassembling, modifying, physical shock, or impact such as hammering, dropping or stepping on the product. Be particularly careful of the lens.

Keep the LCD screen closed when you are not using your camcorder.

When disconnecting the power cord (mains lead), pull it by the plug and not the cord.

Do not damage the power cord (mains lead) such as by placing anything heavy on it.

Do not use a deformed or damaged battery pack.

Keep metal contacts clean.

Wash off any liquid that may have contacted your skin.

If any liquid gets in your eyes, wash with plenty of water and consult a doctor.

When not using your camcorder for a long time

To keep your camcorder in optimum state for a long time, turn it on and let it run by recording and playing back images about once a month.

Use up the battery pack completely before storing it.

While using your camcorder, the back of the LCD screen may heat up. This is not a malfunction.
