Digital Video Camcorder may be disrupted by
electromagnetic wave radiation.
≥
Do not use the Digital Video Camcorder near
cell phones because doing so may result in
noise adversely affecting the pictures and
sound.
≥
Recorded data may be damaged, or pictures
may be distorted, by strong magnetic fields
created by speakers or large motors.
≥
Electromagnetic wave radiation generated by
microprocessors may adversely affect the
Digital Video Camcorder, disturbing the pictures
and sound.

If the Digital Video Camcorder is adversely
affected by electromagnetic equipment and
stops functioning properly, turn the Digital Video
Camcorder off and remove the battery or
disconnect AC adaptor. Then reinsert the
battery or reconnect AC adaptor and turn the
Digital Video Camcorder on.
Do not use the Digital Video Camcorder near
radio transmitters or high-voltage lines.
≥
If you record near radio transmitters or
high-voltage lines, the recorded pictures and
sound may be adversely affected.

chemicals onto the Camcorder.
≥
If the Camcorder is sprayed with such
chemicals, the Camcorder body may become
deformed and the surface finish may peel off.
≥

About the battery
The battery used in the Camcorder is a
rechargeable lithium ion battery. This battery is
susceptible to temperature and humidity, and the
effect of temperature increases with increasing or
decreasing temperature. In the low temperature
range, the fully charged indication may not
appear, or the low battery indication may appear
about 5 minutes after the start of use. At high
temperature, moreover, the protection function
may work, disabling use of the Camcorder.
Be sure to detach the battery after use.
≥
If the battery is left attached to the Camcorder, a
minute amount of current is consumed even
when the Camcorder power is [OFF]. If the
battery is left attached to the Camcorder for a
long time, over-discharge takes place. The
battery may become unusable after it is
charged.
≥
The battery should be stored in a cool place free
from humidity, with as constant temperature as
possible. (Recommended temperature: 15
o
C to
25
o
C (59
o
F to 77
o
F), Recommended humidity:
40% to 60%)
