Cautions When Using
Handle the liquid crystal display (LCD) with care:
The LCD is a very delicate display device: Do not press its surface with force, hit it or prick it with a sharp
object.
If you push the LCD surface, unevenness in display may occur. If unevenness does not disappear, turn
the DVD Palmcorder off, wait for a few moments, and then turn it on again.
Do not place the DVD Palmcorder with the open LCD screen down.
Close the LCD monitor when not using the DVD Palmcorder.
Liquid crystal display and viewfinder:
The LCD screen and viewfinder are the products of highly precise technology. Among the total number
of pixels (approx. 120,000 pixels for LCD monitor and approx. 110,000 pixels for viewfinder), 0.01% or
less pixels may be missing (black dots) or may remain lit as colored dots (red, blue, green). This shows
the limitations of the current technology, and does not indicate a fault that will interfere with recording.
The LCD screen and viewfinder will be slightly dimmer than usual when the DVD Palmcorder is at low
temperature, as in cold areas, or immediately after power is turned on. Normal brightness will be
restored when the temperature inside the DVD Palmcorder rises.
Hold the DVD Palmcorder correctly:
Do not hold the by viewfinder or LCD monitor when lifting the DVD Palmcorder: The viewfinder or
LCD monitor could detach and the DVD Palmcorder may fall.
Do not subject the DVD Palmcorder to impact:
This DVD Palmcorder is a precision machine. Take great care that you do not strike it against a hard
object or let it fall.
Do not use the DVD Palmcorder on a tripod in a place where it is subject to severe vibrations or impact.
No sand or dust!
Fine sand or dust entering the DVD Palmcorder or AC adapter/charger could cause malfunctions or
defects.
No water or oil!
Water or oil entering the DVD Palmcorder or AC adapter/charger could cause electric shock,
malfunctions or defects.
8
Heat on surface of product:
The surface of the DVD Palmcorder will be slightly warm, but this does not indicate a fault.
Screen on connected TV:
Never leave the disc navigation screen, still image or camera image displayed on your TV to which the
DVD Palmcorder is connected: Doing so could result in displayed image retention or phosphor
degradation of TV screen.
Be careful of ambient temperature:
Using the DVD Palmcorder in a place where the temperature is over 140ºF (40°C) or under 32ºF (0°C)
will result in abnormal recording/playback.
Take care that the temperature of this DVD Palmcorder, when connected to PC does not rise excessively
(reference for usage: approx. 30 minutes at about 86ºF (30ºC).
Do not leave the DVD Palmcorder on a beach or in a closed vehicle where the temperature is very high
for a long time: This could cause malfunctions.
Do not point directly at the sun:
If direct sunlight strikes the lens or viewfinder, the DVD Palmcorder could malfunction or a fire could
occur.
Do not leave the DVD Palmcorder with the LCD screen exposed to direct sunlight: This could cause
malfunctions.
Do not use the DVD Palmcorder near TV or radio:
This could cause noise to appear on the TV screen or in radio broadcasts.
Do not use the DVD Palmcorder near strong radio waves or magnetism:
If the DVD Palmcorder is used near strong radio waves or magnetism, such as near a radio wave tower
or electric appliances, noise could enter video and audio that are being recorded. During playback of
normally recorded video and audio, noise may also be present in picture and sound.
At worst the DVD Palmcorder could malfunction.
Do not expose the DVD Palmcorder to soot or steam:
Thick soot or steam could damage the DVD Palmcorder case or cause malfunctions.
Do not use the DVD Palmcorder near corrosive gas:
Using it in a place where there is dense exhaust gas generated by gasoline or diesel engines, or corrosive
gas such as hydrogen sulfide, could corrode the battery connecting terminals, which could result in loss
of power.
Do not use the DVD Palmcorder near ultrasonic humidifier:
With some water in humidifier, calcium and other chemicals dissolved in water could scatter in the air,
and white particles could adhere to the optical head of the DVD Palmcorder, which could cause it to
operate abnormally.
Do not expose the DVD Palmcorder to insecticide:
Insecticide entering the DVD Palmcorder could dirty the lens in laser pickup block, and in such a case
the DVD Palmcorder might not operate normally. Turn the DVD Palmcorder off and cover it with vinyl
sheet, etc. before using insecticide.
Do not use a optional-user provided 8 cm CD lens cleaner:
Cleaning the lens is not necessary when using this DVD Palmcorder in the usual way.
Using 8 cm CD lens cleaner could cause this DVD Palmcorder to be faulty.
Do not touch the lens in laser pickup block.
If you touch the lens in laser pickup block directly it may cause malfunctions. Laser pickup block is not
a compensable part. Therefore, pay much attention when operating this camera.
9
Be careful of moisture condensation:
When you move the DVD Palmcorder between places where the difference in temperatures is great -
such as entering a lodge from a ski slope or going out of a cooled room or vehicle - condensation (vapor
in air warmed or cooled to water droplets) could occur on the lens and/or inside the DVD Palmcorder.
If condensation occurs, do not open the cover of disc or card insertion block if possible. If condensation
occurs on the lens, wipe it off with a soft, dry cloth. Even if the external surface of DVD Palmcorder has
dried, condensation may remain inside: Turn the DVD Palmcorder off and leave it in a dry place for at
least 1-2 hours before using it again.
Do not use the DVD Palmcorder for a long, uninterrupted period of time:
This DVD Palmcorder cannot be used for a long time continuously as a surveillance camera/monitor.
If you use the DVD Palmcorder for a long continuous period of time, the temperature of DVD
Palmcorder could exceed a limit and the recording/playback operation could be slowed down: In this
case, turn it off and wait for a while before using it again.
Do not turn the DVD Palmcorder off while the ACCESS/PC indicator or CARD ACCESS
indicator is lit or blinking:
The ACCESS/PC or CARD ACCESS indicator is lit or blinking
to show that data is being written to disc or card, or being read
from it. At this time, do not do any of the following, so as not
to damage the data:
Remove battery pack
Disconnect AC adapter/charger
Plug or unplug USB cable
Remove disc or card
Subject DVD Palmcorder to severe vibrations or impact.
