If the Battery is used in an extremely
cold environment, the Battery may only
operate for approx. 5 minutes. If the
Battery becomes extremely hot, a
protective function may operate, and the
Battery may become unusable for a
while.
ª About the Lens
≥Do not touch the lens. Wipe the SD Multi
AV Device with a soft dry cloth when the
lens becomes unclean.
≥When the Lens is Fogged Up, turn off the
SD Multi AV Device and leave the SD
Multi AV Device in this condition for
approx. 1 hour. When the lens
temperature becomes close to the
ambient temperature, the fog disappears
naturally.
ª About the AC Adaptor
≥If the Battery is warm, charging takes
longer than usual.
≥If you use the AC Adaptor near a radio,
radio reception may be disturbed. Keep
the AC Adaptor 1 meter or more away
from a radio.
≥After use, be sure to pull out the AC Main
Lead from the AC Main socket.
≥Keep the electrodes of the AC Adaptor
and Battery clean at all times.
≥Remove the battery if the device is left
unused for a long time.
≥The temperature of the SD Multi AV
Device and the battery may rise while
charging the battery. Such rise of
temperature does not indicate a fault.
≥Do not install, remove, plug or unplug the
battery or power cord while the power is
on.
ª About the LCD Monitor
≥In a place with drastic temperature
changes, condensation may form on the
LCD Monitor. Wipe it with a soft dry cloth.
≥If your SD Multi AV Device is extremely
cold when you turn its power on, the
image on the LCD Monitor will be slightly
darker than usual at first. However, as the
internal temperature increases, it goes
back to the normal brightness.
ª Optimal Use of the Battery
Battery Characteristics
This Battery is a rechargeable lithium ion
battery. Its ability to generate power is
based upon the chemical reaction that takes
place inside it. This reaction is susceptible
to the surrounding temperature and
humidity, and, if the temperature is too high
or too low, the operating time of the Battery
becomes shorter.
Be Sure to Detach the Battery after Use
Be sure to detach the Battery from the SD
Multi AV Device. (If it is left attached to the
SD Multi AV Device, a minute amount of
current is consumed even when the SD
Multi AV Device power is off.) If the Battery
is left attached to the SD Multi AV Device for
a long time, over discharge takes place.
The Battery may become unusable after it is
charged.
Disposing of an Unusable Battery
≥The Battery has a limited life.
≥Do not throw the Battery into fire because
it may cause an explosion.
Extremely high precision technology is
employed to produce the LCD Monitor
screen featuring a total of approximately
200,000 pixels. The result is more than
99.99% effective pixels with a mere
0.01% of the pixels inactive or always lit.
However, this is not a malfunction and
does not affect the recorded picture.
