Precautions• Do not subject the MV-1 to strong shocks
Do not drop or otherwise hit the MV-1. This can cause malfunctions.
• Protect it from water
Take care to protect the MV-1 from water. If water gets inside the case, it may lead
to corrosion. This can be expensive to repair, and in severe cases it may be impossible
to repair at all.
• Avoid sudden temperature changes
If you expose the MV-1 to a sudden temperature change (for example, taking it from
the cold outdoors into a warm house, or vice-versa), water drops may form on the
inside and outside of the case, and can cause damage. Place the MV-1 in a plastic
bag or other container in advance and allow it to adjust to the new temperature
before using it.
• Do not use near strong electromagnetic waves or magnetic fields
In places where strong electromagnetic waves or fields exist, such as near television
broadcasting towers, or where strong static electricity is present, recorded data may
be corrupted or deleted, and the MV-1 may not function normally.
• Always turn camera power off before connecting the MV-1
Always turn camera power off before connecting the MV-1 to the camera, or
disconnecting it.
• Maintain sufficient battery power
Be sure to use the MV-1 with a reasonable level of power in the camera batteries.
Check your camera instruction manual for information on how to check battery
power.
• Caring for the MV-1
Use a blower to remove most of the dust and dirt, then wipe gently with a clean,
soft cloth.
• Store the MV-1 in a cool, dry place
Store the MV-1 in a cool, dry place to prevent mold and malfunctions.
Keep it away from naphthalene or camphor (moth repellent), electric appliances that
generate magnetic fields or any excessively hot place such as inside a vehicle during
the summer or near a heater.
