Storage
If you do not intend to use the camcorder for some time, store it in an area which is free of dust and moisture, and where the temperature is no higher than 30°C (86°F). After storage, check each part and function of your camcorder to make sure everything is still working properly.
Note:
• These cautions also apply to accessories such as battery packs and cassettes.
Maintenance
LCD
•Clean the LCD screen using a commercially available cleaning cloth for glasses.
•Where there is a big change in temperature, moisture may form on the surface of the screen. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth.
•At low temperatures the display may appear to be much darker than usual. This is not a fault, and as the screen warms up the display will return to normal.
Camcorder body and lens
•Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the camcorder body or lens. Never use chemically treated cloth or volatile solvents such as paint thinner.
Video heads
•When the message “HEADS DIRTY, USE CLEANING CASSETTE” apears, or when the playback picture becomes distorted, the video heads need to be cleaned.
•To maintain the best picture quality, we recommend cleaning the video heads frequently with the Canon
•Do not use wet type cleaning cassettes as this may damage the camcorder.
