SD cards

●The memory capacity indicated on the SD card label is the maximum capacity for copyright protection and management, which is ordinarily used by the unit, computers, etc.

●MiniSD cards require a purpose-specific adaptor. Do not insert just the miniSD card or just the adaptor. Also, do not insert and remove a miniSD card while keeping the adaptor inserted into the unit. (This can cause damage.)

Battery

●The rechargeable lithium ion battery used with this unit is readily affected by temperature and humidity. In cold places, the full battery indication may not appear and a low battery warning may appear approx. 5 minutes after starting use. In high temperatures, a protective function may be triggered, preventing use.

●After use, always remove and store the battery.

•If left inside the unit, the battery may over-discharge because of small amounts of current flow, ultimately damaging the battery.

•Place the battery in a plastic bag so as to prevent metal from contacting terminals and store in a cool (15 - 25 ˚C (59 - 77 ˚F)) dry (40 - 60 % RH) place subject to minimal temperature changes.

•Storing the battery in extreme cold or high heat may shorten the battery’s service-life. Moreover, places that are hot, humid or oily can rust terminals and cause damage to the battery.

•During long-term storage, charge the battery once a year, then use it until depleted and store it again.

•Clean battery terminals of adhering dust, etc. ●Prepare a spare battery when going out.

•Prepare 3 - 4x more battery power than you plan to use. In cold places such as ski resorts, recording time becomes shorter.

•Do not forget the AC adaptor when traveling so that you can recharge

batteries.

●Do not use batteries if damaged or deformed (especially terminals) from dropping, etc.

•This can cause damage to the unit. ●Do not throw batteries into fire.

•The battery may burst if heated or thrown into fire.

●If the battery does not last long immediately after charging, it has reached the end of its service-life. Purchase a new battery.
