• Be careful of ambient temperature:
- Using the HD camcorder in a place where the temperature is over 140°F (60°C) or under 32°F (0°C) will result
in abnormal recording/playback.
- Do not leave the HD camcorder on a beach or in a closed vehicle where the temperature is very high for a long
time: This could cause a malfunction.
• Do not point directly at the sun:
- If direct sunlight strikes the lens, the HD camcorder could malfunction or a fire could occur.
- Do not leave the HD camcorder with the LCD screen exposed to direct sunlight: This could cause a
malfunction.
• Do not use the HD camcorder near TV or radio:
This could cause noise to appear on the TV screen or on radio broadcasts.
• Do not use the HD camcorder near strong radio waves or magnetism:
If the HD camcorder is used near strong radio waves or magnetism, such as near a radio transmitter 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.
• Do not expose the HD camcorder to soot or steam:
Thick soot or steam could damage the HD camcorder case or cause a malfunction.
• Do not use the HD camcorder near corrosive gas:
If the HD camcorder 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 wipe the HD camcorder body with benzene or thinner:
- The exterior coating could peel off or the case surface could deteriorate.
• Keep the memory card out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.
