9. VENTILATION:
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation to
ensure reliable operation of the CAMCORDER and to protect it from
overheating. These openings must not be blocked or covered.
Never place your CAMCORDER on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar
surface: on or near a radiator or heat register.
This CAMCORDER should not be placed in a built-in installation such
as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the
manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.
10. POWER SOURCES:
The CAMCORDER should be operated only from the type of power
source indicated on the label.
If you are not sure of the type of power supply at your home, consult
your appliance dealer or local power company.
A CAMCORDER is intended to be operated from battery power, or
other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
11. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION:
This CAMCORDER may be equipped with either a polarized 2-wire
AC line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other) or a 3-wire
grounding type plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin.
If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to replace your
outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
12. POWER-CORD PROTECTION:
Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be
walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying
particular attention to cords or plugs, convenient receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the unit.
13. OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING:
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the
CAMCORDER, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded to
provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges, Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No.
70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the
mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire and
supporting structure, grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an
antenna discharge unit, size of grounding to conductors, location of
antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and

For added protection of this CAMCORDER during a lightning storm or
when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug
it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system.
This will prevent damage to the CAMCORDER due to lightning and
power-line surges.
15. POWER LINES:
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits where it
can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside
antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching
such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in
a risk of fire or electric shock.
17.OBJECTS AND LIQUIDS:
Never push objects of any kind into this CAMCORDER through
openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out a
part that could result in a fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquids of any kind onto the CAMCORDER. Should spillage
occur, unplug unit and have it checked by a technician before use.
18. SERVICING:
Do not attempt to service this CAMCORDER yourself. Opening or
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other

Notices regarding moisture condensation
1. A sudden rise in atmospheric temperature may cause condensation to form inside the camcorder.
for example:
- When you move the camcorder from cold outside to warm inside during the winter.
- When you move the camcorder from cool inside to hot outside during the summer.
2. If the “DEW” protection feature is activated, leave the camcorder for at least two hours in a dry, warm room with the cassette compartment
opened and the battery removed.
Notices regarding COPYRIGHT
Television programs, video tapes, DVD titles, films, and other program materials may be copyrighted.
Unauthorized copying of copyrighted material may be against the law.
Notices regarding CAMCORDER
1. Do not leave the camcorder exposed to high temperature(above 60˚C or 140˚F).
For example, in a parked car in the sun or under direct sunlight.
2. Do not let the camcorder get wet.
Keep the camcorder away from rain, sea water, and any other form of moisture. If the camcorder gets wet, it may be damaged.

- Make sure the battery pack is fully charged before starting to record.
- To preserve battery power, keep your camcorder
turned off when you are not operating it.
- When your camcorder is in CAMERA mode, if it is left in STBY mode without operation for
more than 5 minutes with a tape installed, it will automatically turn off to protect against
unnecessary battery discharge.
- Make sure that the battery pack is fitted firmly into place.
Dropping the battery pack may damage it.
- A brand new battery pack is not charged.
Before using the battery pack, charge it completely.
- It is a good idea to use the viewfinder instead of the LCD when recording for a long time,
because the LCD uses up more battery power.

Notices and Safety Instructions
*When the battery reaches the end of its life, please contact your local dealer.
The batteries have to be dealt with as chemical waste.
Notices regarding the battery pack
Notices regarding video head cleaning
- To ensure normal recording and a clear picture, clean the video heads reguarly. If a square block-shaped noise distorts playback pictures,
or if only a blue screen is displayed during playback, 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.

- Do not film with the camera lens pointing directly at the sun.
Direct sunlight can damage the CCD(Charge Coupled Device).
1. Do not position the camcorder such that the viewfinder is pointing towards the sun.
Direct sunlight can damage the inside of the viewfinder.
Be careful when placing the camcorder under sunlight or by a window.
2. Do not pick up the camcorder by the viewfinder.
3. Over-rotation of the viewfinder may damage it.
1. The LCD display is manufactured using high precision technology.
However, there can be tiny dots(red, blue or green in color) that appear on the LCD display.
These dots are normal and do not affect the recorded picture in any way.
2. When you use the LCD display in direct sunlight or outdoors, it may be difficult to see the
picture.
If this occurs, we recommend that the viewfinder is used.
3. Direct sunlight can damage the LCD monitor.
- To ensure a steady picture during recording, check that the hand strap is properly adjusted.
- Do not force your hand into the hand strap as you could damage it.
