Traveling Tips | RCA CC616 instruction

Traveling Tips

•Write down your camcorder’s serial number and keep it separate from the camcorder when traveling. If your camcorder is lost or stolen, you will be able to identify it.

•Use extra care to avoid damage to your camcorder and accessories when operating them at a beach or pool. Spray, sand, and dust should be avoided. If your lens has been exposed to the elements, clean it only with proper lens cleaning supplies.

•Make sure you have any plug adapters that you may need before taking your camcorder to other countries. Consult your dealer for advice.

•Carry your camcorder in a carrying case when traveling. See page 64 for a case designed especially for this camcorder. An ordinary suitcase or carry bag does not offer the protection your camcorder needs. Treat your camcorder as carry-on luggage to protect it from rough handling.
