Maintenance/Others

Storage

If you do not intend to use the camcorder for a long time, store it in a place free of dust, in low humidity, and at temperatures not higher than 30 °C.

Cleaning

Camcorder Body

Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the camcorder body. Never use chemically treated cloth or volatile solvents such as paint thinner.

Pick Up Lens

Remove any dust or dirt particles using a non-aerosol type blower brush. Never touch the pick up lens directly to clean it.

Lens and Viewfinder

If the lens surface is dirty, the autofocus may not work properly.

Remove any dust or dirt particles using a non-aerosol type blower brush.

Use a clean, soft lens-cleaning cloth to gently wipe the lens or viewfinder. Never use tissue paper.

LCD Screen

Clean the LCD screen using a clean, soft lens-cleaning cloth.

Condensation may form on the surface of the screen when the temperature changes suddenly. Wipe it with a soft dry cloth.

Condensation

Moving the camcorder rapidly between hot and cold temperatures may cause condensation (water droplets) to form on its internal surfaces. Stop using the camcorder if condensation is detected. Continued use may damage the camcorder.
