ªAbout the AC adaptor

≥If the battery is warm, charging requires more time than normal.

≥If the temperature of the battery is extremely high or extremely low, the [CHARGE] lamp may continue flashing, and the battery may not be charged. After the battery temperature has decreased or increased sufficiently, recharging starts automatically. So, wait for a while. If the lamp still continues flashing even after the recharging, the battery or AC adaptor may be faulty. If so, please contact a dealer.

≥If you use the AC adaptor near a radio, radio reception may be disturbed. Keep the AC

adaptor 1 meter (3 feet) or more away from radio.

≥When using the AC adaptor, it may generate whirring sounds. However, this is normal.

≥After use, be sure to pull out the AC Cable from the AC Jack. (If they are left connected, a

minute amount of current is consumed.) ≥Always keep the electrodes of the AC adaptor

and battery clean.

ªAbout the cassette

Never place the cassette in a high temperature place.

≥The tape may be damaged, producing mosaic-like noise at the time of playback.

When storing the cassette after use, be sure to rewind the tape to the beginning and take it out.

≥If the cassette is left for more than 6 months (depending on the storage condition) in the Camcorder or stopped midway, the tape may sag and be damaged.

≥Once every 6 months, wind the tape to the end and then rewind it to the beginning. If the cassette is left for 1 year or longer without winding or rewinding, the tape may be deformed by expansion or shrinkage attributable to temperature and humidity. The wound tape may stick to itself.

≥Dust, direct sunlight (ultraviolet rays), and humidity may damage the tape. Such usage may cause damage to the Camcorder and the heads.

≥After use, be sure to rewind the tape to the beginning, put the cassette in the case to

protect it from dust, and store it upright.
