Cautions for Use
ªAbout condensation
If you turn the Camcorder on when condensation
occurs on the head or the tape, condensation
Indication [3] (yellow or red) is displayed on the
viewfinder or the LCD monitor and the messages
[3DEW DETECT] or [3EJECT TAPE] (only
when the tape is inserted) appear. If so, follow the
procedure below.
3 in yellow:
Dew is slightly adhering on the head or the tape.
3 in red:
Dew is adhering on the head or the tape.
1Remove the tape if it is inserted.
≥It takes about 20 seconds to open the
cassette holder. This is not a malfunction.
2Leave the Camcorder with the cassette
cover closed to cool or warm it to the
ambient temperature.
When [3] in yellow
≥You cannot use the Tape Recording/
Playback Mode. Leave the Camcorder for
about 30 minutes.
≥However, you can use the Card Recording
Mode or Picture Playback Mode when a
cassette is not inserted.
When [3] in red
≥The power Lamp blinks for about 1 minute
and then the Camcorder automatically turns
off. Leave it for about 2 to 3 hours.
3Turn the Camcorder on again, set it to the
Tape Recording/Playback Mode and then
check if the condensation indication
disappears.
Especially in cold areas, moisture may be frozen.
If so, it may take more time before the
condensation indication disappears.
Watch for condensation even before the
condensation Indication is displayed.
≥The condensation indication may not appear
depending on circumstances. When
condensation occurs on the lens or the
Camcorder, it may also occur on the head and
the tape. Do not open the cassette cover.
When the lens is fogged:
Set the [OFF/ON] switch to [OFF] and leave the
Camcorder in this condition for about 1 hour.
When the lens temperature becomes close to the
ambient temperature, the fogging disappears
naturally.
