it out well, and wipe the product gently. Then, after wiping the product with a moist cloth, wipe it again with a dry cloth.
@@NOTE
tAvoid using benzine, paint thinners and other volatile uids.
tIf a chemical cleaning cloth is to be used, carefully read through the precautions for its use.
rPrecaution to be observed during production
Video switching and video effect functions of this unit can be used to produce videos which icker rapidly or videos which change rapidly.
However, bear in mind when using these functions in production that the kinds of videos produced may have an adverse effect on the viewer’s physical
well-being.
rBuilt-in display
Leaving the multi-selection menu panel, and LCD panel of the Menu Panel on with the same image over a long period of time may result in afterimage
(burn-in). Use after conguring the screensaver settings.
The liquid crystal parts are highly precise with more than 99.99% of the pixels effective. This leaves less than 0.01% of pixels that may not light or may
remain on all the time.
These phenomena are normal and will have no effect on the images you shoot.
Condensation may form on the LCD panel if you use the unit where temperatures uctuate. Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
When the unit has completely cooled down, the display on the LCD monitor appears slightly darker than usual immediately after the power has been
turned on. Once the internal temperature of the unit rises, the display returns to the normal brightness.
rTouch screen
Operate with your ngers on the touch screen of the Menu Panel. Do not touch the panel with sharp-pointed, hard object such as a ballpoint pen.
rWhen the product is to be discarded
When the product is to be discarded at the end of its service life, ask a specialized contractor to dispose of it properly in order to protect the
environment.
rConsumable parts
fCooling fan:
This is a consumable part.
As a general rule, replace it every 5 years or so (when the unit has been operated for 15 hours a day).
fPower supply unit:
This is a consumable part.
