LIGHT OFF/AUTO/ON Switch

DANGER

The video light can become extremely hot. Do not touch it either while in operation or soon after turning it off, otherwise serious injury may result.

Do not place the camcorder into the carrying case immediately after using the video light, since it remains extremely hot for some time.

When operating, keep a distance of about 30 cm (11-13/16") between the video light and people or objects.

Do not use near flammable or explosive materials.

It is recommended that you consult your nearest JVC dealer for replacing the video light.

FEATURE: Video Light

OPERATION:

Set LIGHT OFF/AUTO/ON as required:

When not using the video light, turn it off to save battery power.

NOTES:

Even if the battery indicator ( ) does not blink if the battery pack’s charge is low, the camcorder may turn off automatically when you turn on the video light, or when you start recording with the video light turned on.
