Cassettes

To properly use and store your cassettes, be sure to read the following cautions:

1. During use . . .

..... make sure the cassette bears the VHS-C mark.

..... be aware that recording onto prerecorded tapes

automatically erases the previously recorded video and audio signals.

..... make sure the cassette is positioned properly

when inserting.

..... do not load and unload the cassette

repeatedly without allowing the tape to run at all. This slackens the tape and can result in damage.

..... do not open the front tape cover. This exposes

the tape to fingerprints and dust.

2. Store cassettes . . .

..... away from heaters or other heat sources.

..... out of direct sunlight.

..... where they won’t be subject to unnecessary

shock or vibration.

..... where they won’t be exposed to strong magnetic

fields (such as those generated by motors, transformers or magnets).

..... vertically, in their original cases.

Main Unit

1. For safety, DO NOT . . .

..... open the camcorder’s chassis.

..... disassemble or modify the unit.

..... short-circuit the terminals of the battery pack.

Keep it away from metallic objects when not in use.

..... allow inflammables, water or metallic objects to

enter the unit.

..... remove the battery pack or disconnect the

power supply while the power is on.

..... leave the battery pack attached when the

camcorder is not in use.

2. Avoid using the unit . . .

..... in places subject to excessive humidity or dust.

..... in places subject to soot or steam such as near a

cooking stove.

..... in places subject to excessive shock or vibration.

..... near a television set.

..... near appliances generating strong magnetic or

electric fields (speakers, broadcasting antennas, etc.).

..... in places subject to extremely high (over 40°C

or 104°F) or extremely low (under 0°C or 32°F) temperatures.

3. DO NOT leave the unit . . .

..... in places of over 50°C (122°F).

..... in places where humidity is extremely low.

(below 35%) or extremely high (above 80%).

..... in direct sunlight.

..... in a closed car in summer.

..... near a heater.

4.To protect the unit, DO NOT . . .

..... allow it to become wet.

..... drop the unit or strike it against hard objects.

..... subject it to shock or excessive vibration during transportation.

..... keep the lens directed at extremely bright objects for long periods.

..... direct the eyepiece of the viewfinder at the sun.

..... carry it by holding the viewfinder or the LCD monitor. Be sure to hold the main unit with both hands or use the grip.

..... swing it excessively when using the shoulder strap.

LCD monitor

1.To prevent damage to the LCD monitor, DO NOT . . .

..... push it strongly or apply any shocks.

..... place the camcorder with the LCD monitor on the bottom.

2.To prolong service life . . .

..... avoid rubbing it with coarse cloth.

3.Be aware of the following phenomena for LCD monitor use. These are not malfunctions . . .

•While using the camcorder, the surface around the LCD monitor and/or the back of the LCD monitor may heat up.

•If you leave power on for a long time, the surface around the LCD monitor becomes hot.

About moisture condensation . . .

You may have observed that pouring a cold liquid into a glass will cause drops of water to form on the glass’ outer surface. This same phenomenon occurs on the head drum of a camcorder when it is moved from a cool place to a warm place, after heating a cold room, under extremely humid conditions or in a place directly subjected to the cool air from an air conditioner.

Moisture on the head drum can cause severe damage to the video tape, and can lead to internal damage to the camcorder itself.

Serious malfunctioning

If malfunctioning occurs, stop using the unit immediately and consult your local JVC dealer.
