Notes and Safety Instructions

Notes regarding the Rotation of the LCD Screen

Please rotate the LCD Screen carefully as illustrated. Over rotation may cause damage to the inside of the hinge that connects the LCD Screen to the Camcorder.

1. Open the LCD Screen 90 degrees to the Camcorder with your finger.

2. Rotate it to the best angle to record or play.

■ If you rotate the LCD Screen 180 degrees so it is facing forward, you can close the LCD Screen with the display facing out.

■ This is convenient during playback operations.

[ Note ]

Refer to page 29 to adjust brightness and colour of the LCD Screen.

Notes regarding the LCD Screen, Viewfinder, Lens

1.Direct sunlight can damage the LCD Screen, the inside of the Viewfinder or the Lens. Take pictures of the sun only in low light

conditions, such as at dusk.

2. The LCD Screen has been manufactured using high precision technology. However, there may be tiny dots (red, blue or green in colour) that appear on the LCD Screen. These dots are normal and do not

affect the recorded picture in any way.

3. Do not pick up the Camcorder by holding the Viewfinder, LCD Screen or Battery Pack.

4. Applying excessive force to the Viewfinder may damage it.

Notes regarding the Video Head Cleaning

■To ensure normal recording and a clear picture, clean the video heads regularly.

If a square block-shape distorts playback, or only a blue screen is displayed, the video heads may be dirty. If this happens, clean the video heads with a dry type cleaning cassette.

■Do not use a wet-type cleaning cassette. It may damage the video heads.
