About this unit

≥The unit and card become warm after long operation, but this is not a malfunction.

Keep the SD Video Camera as far away as possible from electromagnetic equipment (such as microwave ovens, TVs, video games etc.).

≥If you use the SD Video Camera on top of or near a TV, the pictures and sound on the SD Video Camera may be disrupted by electromagnetic wave radiation.

≥Do not use the SD Video Camera near cell phones because doing so may result in noise adversely affecting the pictures and sound.

≥Recorded data may be damaged, or pictures may be distorted, by strong magnetic fields created by speakers or large motors.

≥Electromagnetic wave radiation generated by microprocessors may adversely affect the SD Video Camera, disturbing the pictures and sound.

≥If the SD Video Camera is adversely affected by electromagnetic equipment and stops functioning properly, turn the SD Video Camera off and remove the battery or disconnect AC adaptor.

Then reinsert the battery or reconnect AC adaptor and turn the SD Video Camera on.

Do not use the SD Video Camera near radio transmitters or high-voltage lines.

≥If you record near radio transmitters or high-voltage lines, the recorded pictures and sound may be adversely affected.
