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 soon,
turn the DVD Video Camera off, wait for a few moments, and then turn it on again.
Do not place the DVD Video Camera with the open LCD screen down.
Close the LCD monitor when not using the DVD Video Camera.
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 coloured 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 Video Camera 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 Video Camera rises.
Hold the DVD Video Camera correctly:
Do not hold the viewfinder or LCD monitor when lifting the DVD Video Camera: The viewfinder or LCD
monitor could detach and the DVD Video Camera may fall.
Do not subject the DVD Video Camera to impact:
This DVD Video Camera 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 Video Camera 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 Video Camera or AC adaptor/charger could cause malfunctions or
defects.
No water or oil!
Water or oil entering the DVD Video Camera or AC adaptor/charger could cause electric shock,
malfunctions or defects.

Heat on surface of product:
The surface of the DVD Video Camera 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 Video Camera is connected: Doing so could result in displayed image retention or phosphor
degradation of TV screen.
Be careful of ambient temperature:
Using the DVD Video Camera in a place where the temperature is over 40°C or under 0°C will result in
abnormal recording/playback.
Take care that the temperature of this DVD Video Camera, when connected to PC, does not rise
excessively (reference for usage: approx. 30 minutes at about 30°C).
Do not leave the DVD Video Camera on beach sand 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 Video Camera could malfunction or a fire could
occur.
Do not leave the DVD Video Camera with the LCD screen exposed to direct sunlight: This could cause
malfunctions.
Do not use the DVD Video Camera near TV or radio:
This could cause noise to appear on the TV screen or in radio broadcasts.
Do not use the DVD Video Camera near strong radio waves or magnetism:
If the DVD Video Camera 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 Video Camera could malfunction.
Do not expose the DVD Video Camera to soot or steam:
Thick soot or steam could damage the DVD Video Camera case or cause malfunctions.
Do not use the DVD Video Camera near corrosive gas:
If the DVD Video Camera is used in a place where there is dense exhaust gas generated by gasoline
or diesel engines, or corrosive gas such as hydrogen sulfide, the external or internal terminals could
corrode, disabling normal operation, or the battery connecting terminals could corrode, so that power will
not turn on.
Do not use the DVD Video Camera 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 Video Camera, which could cause it to
operate abnormally.
Do not expose the DVD Video Camera to insecticide:
Insecticide entering the DVD Video Camera could dirty the lens in laser pickup block, and in such a case
the DVD Video Camera might not operate normally. Turn the DVD Video Camera off and cover it with
vinyl sheet, etc. before using insecticide.
Do not use a generally available 8 cm CD lens cleaner:
Cleaning the lens is not necessary when using this DVD Video Camera in the usual way.
Using 8 cm CD lens cleaner could cause this DVD Video Camera 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.

Be careful of moisture condensation:
When you move the DVD Video Camera 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 (vapour
in air warmed or cooled to water droplets) could occur on the lens and/or inside the DVD Video Camera.
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 Video Camera
has dried, condensation may remain inside: Turn the DVD Video Camera off and leave it in a dry place
for at least 1-2 hours before using it again.
Do not use the DVD Video Camera for a long uninterrupted period of time:
This DVD Video Camera cannot be used for a long time continuously as a surveillance camera/monitor.
If you use the DVD Video Camera for a long continuous period of time, the temperature of DVD Video
Camera 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.
Take care that the temperature of this DVD Video Camera, when connected to PC does not rise
excessively (reference for usage: approx. 30 minutes at about 30°C).
Do not turn the DVD Video Camera 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
Disconnect AC adaptor/charger
Plug or unplug PC connection cable
Remove disc or card
Subject DVD Video Camera to severe vibrations or impact.
Violently open or close the LCD monitor
If you turn the DVD Video Camera off while the ACCESS/PC or CARD ACCESS indicator is lit or blinking,
turn it on again with the disc or card loaded in it: Repair of the disc or card will be executed automatically
(see page 144).
Do not wipe the DVD Video Camera case with benzene or thinner:
The coating of case could peel off or the case surface could deteriorate.
When using a chemical cleaning cloth, follow the instructions.
Also read the instructions attached with optional accessories:
For optional accessories, observe the cautions and follow instruction manuals attached.

Cautions When Storing
Do not leave the DVD Video Camera in a place where the temperature is very high for a
long period of time:

DVD Video Camera in such a place, it could malfunction or the case could be damaged. Also, do not
expose the DVD Video Camera to direct sunlight or place it near a heater.
Do not store the DVD Video Camera in a place where the humidity is high or in a dusty
place:
Dust entering the DVD Video Camera could cause malfunctions. If the humidity is high, the lens could
be mouldy, and the DVD Video Camera could become inoperable. It is recommended that you put the
DVD Video Camera with desiccant in a box when storing it in a closet, etc.
Do not store the DVD Video Camera in a place subject to strong magnetism or intense
vibrations:
This could cause malfunctions.
