8 Make a backup of important recorded data

It is recommended to copy your important recorded data to a DVD or other recording media for storage.

( pg. 46) JVC will not be responsible for any lost data.

8 Make a trial recording

Before the actual recording of important data, make a trial recording and play back the recorded data to check that the video and sound have been recorded correctly.

8 Reset the camera if it does not operate correctly

This camera uses a microcomputer. Factors such as background noise and interference can prevent it from operating correctly. If the camera does not operate correctly, reset the camera. ( pg. 73)

8 Precautions on handling batteries

•Be sure to use the JVC BN-VF815U/ VF823U battery packs.

•If the camera is subjected to electrostatic discharge, turn the power off before using it again.

8 If a malfunction occurs, stop using the camera immediately and consult your local JVC dealer

•If a problem occurs when using the SD card, take the card together with the camera for repair. If one of them is not included, the cause of the malfunction cannot be diagnosed, and the camera cannot be repaired.

•Recorded data may be erased while the camera is being repaired or inspected. Back up all data before requesting repairs or inspections.

8 Because cameras may be used for demonstration in a shop, the demonstration mode is set to on by default

To deactivate the demonstration mode, set [DEMO MODE] to [OFF]. ( pg. 69)
