SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

PROVIDED ACCESSORIES

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.

When carrying, be sure to always securely attach and use the provided shoulder strap. Carrying or holding the camcorder by the viewfinder and/or the LCD monitor can result in dropping the unit, or in a malfunction.

Take care not to get your finger caught in the cassette 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 (Video/Audio, S-Video, Editing, DC) 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.

About Batteries

DANGER! Do not attempt to take the batteries apart, or expose them to flame or excessive heat, as there is a risk of fire or explosion.

WARNING! Do not allow the battery terminals, or the battery itself, to come in contact with metals, as this can result in a short circuit and possibly start a fire.
