JVC GR-DX35 manual Before recording an important scene

Page 4

Do not point the lens or the viewfinder directly into the sun. This can cause eye injuries, as well as lead to the malfunctioning of internal circuitry. There is also a risk of fire or electric shock.

CAUTION!

The following notes concern possible physical damage to the camcorder and to the user.

Do not carry or hold the camcorder by the viewfinder and/or the LCD monitor as this can result in dropping the unit, or in a malfunction.

Take care not to get your finger caught in the cassette holder cover. Do not let children operate the camcorder, as they are particularly susceptible to this type of injury.

Do not use a tripod on unsteady or unlevel surfaces. It could tip over, causing serious damage to the camcorder.

CAUTION!

Connecting cables (Audio/Video, S-Video, etc.) to the camcorder and leaving the unit on top of the TV is not recommended, as tripping on the cables will cause the camcorder to fall, resulting in damage.

This camcorder is designed exclusively for the digital video cassette. Only cassettes marked “” can be used with this unit.

Before recording an important scene . . .

..... make sure you only use cassettes with the Mini DV mark

.

..... remember that this camcorder is not compatible with other digital video formats.
