Video Cassette Tapes

To Protect Recordings From Erasure

When a previously recorded cassette is used again for recording, the previously recorded material is erased. To protect a recording from accidental erasure, slide the tab on the cassette to cover the hole. (A red mark will be exposed.)

To record, slide the tab to open the hole.

Using Your Camcorder Abroad

Television system signals and electrical system voltages and frequencies vary substantially from country to country. When you are abroad, check the sections below before using the AC adapter or connecting the Camcorder to a TV.

Notes

∙Do not insert anything into the erasure-protection hole in the cassette.

∙Use only those tapes with the 8 mark.

∙This unit is designed to operate with MP tapes, so playing back ME tapes will result in “noisy” pictures. Use MP-type tapes whenever possible.

∙Do not put anything into the holes on the bottom of the cassette.

∙Do not store or place your video tapes in direct sunlight, near heaters, or in places with excessive moisture or dust.

∙Do not keep video tapes near magnetic objects. They may erase the recording.

∙Do not drop or subject the tapes to excessive shocks.

∙Uneven tape winding will damage the tape. If the tape is not properly wound, reinsert it in the Camcorder and rewind the tape.

∙Store the cassettes in their cases and stand them on edge.

AC Adapter/Battery Charger (Supplied Accessory)

The supplied AC adapter is compatible with 50 Hz and 60 Hz electrical systems in the range of 100 V to 240 V AC.

Television Signal Systems

In any country, you can always watch the video picture by using the LCD monitor screen. However, if you want to watch the picture on a TV screen, the TV must be NTSC-M system compatible. NTSC-M is used in the following areas:

The Bahamas, Barbados, Bermuda, Myanmar (previously Burma), Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, The Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Greenland, Guam, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, The Netherland Antilles, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, The Philippines, Puerto Rico, St. Kitts, St. Lucia, Surinam, Taiwan, Trinidad, the U.S.A., Venezuela, southern part of Vietnam, and the Virgin Islands.

Care

Cleaning and Maintenance

∙Many plastic parts are used in the Camcorder casing. Do not use thinners, benzenes or other strong chemical cleaners. These may cause discoloration and damage to the casing.

∙Clean the casing with a soft, dry cloth. If the casing is particularly dirty, wipe it with a tightly wrung cloth dampened with a diluted, neutral detergent. Then wipe it again with a soft, dry cloth.

∙Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe finger marks and other soiling off the LCD monitor screen and lens protector.

∙If the lens needs cleaning, first remove the lens cap and then clean the lens with a soft, dry cloth, or compressed air and lens papers designed for photographic lenses.
