General Battery Precautions

When the RM-V20U (remote control), C-P6U or C-P7U (cassette adapter) are not functioning even when correctly operated, the batteries are exhausted. Replace them with fresh ones.

Use only the following batteries:

RM-V20U

R03(AAA) size

C-P6U or C-P7U

R6(AA) size

Please make note of the following rules for battery use. When misused, batteries can leak or explode.

1.Refer to the RM-V20U and C-P6U/C-P7U instructions when replacing batteries.

2.Do not use old and new batteries together.

3.Do not use two different kinds of batteries. Although sizes may be the same, voltages may differ.

4.Do not expose batteries to excessive heat as they can leak or explode.

5.Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.

6.Remove batteries from the unit if it is to be stored for an extended period to avoid battery leakage which can cause malfunctions.

Battery Packs

The supplied battery pack is a nickel-cadmium battery. Before using the supplied battery pack or an optional battery pack, be sure to read the following cautions:

1. To avoid hazard . . .

.... do not burn.

.... do not short-circuit the terminals. Terminals

.... do not modify or disassemble.

.... use only specified chargers.

2.To prevent damage and prolong service life . . .

.... do not subject to unnecessary shock.

.... avoid repeated charging without fully discharging.

.... charge in an environment where temperatures are within the tolerances shown in the chart below. This is a chemical reaction type battery—cooler temperatures impede chemical reaction, while warmer temperatures can prevent complete charging.

.... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to high temperatures will increase natural discharge and shorten service life.

.... avoid prolonged uncharged storage.

.... remove from charger or powered unit when not in use, as some machines use current even when switched off.

3.To prevent damage to the camcorder . . .

.... replace the battery pack when it begins to deliver less recording time per charge.

NOTE:

It is normal for the battery pack toSPECIFICATIONS be warm after charging, or after use.Temperature

Ranges

 

Charging

10°C to 35°C

Operation

0°C to 40°C

Storage

–10°C to 30°C

NOTES:

Recharging time is based on room temperature of 20°C.

The lower the temperature, the longer recharging takes.

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.
