Precautions on connecting with other equipment

When connecting your camcorder to another equipment such as the VCR or the
computer with the USB cable or i.LINK cable, be sure to confirm the insert direction of
the connector plug before connecting your camcorder to another equipment. If you
insert the connector plug forcibly in the wrong direction, the terminal area may break.
This may cause a malfunction of your camcorder.

Precautions on camcorder care

Lens and LCD screen/finder (on mounted models only)

The LCD screen and the finder are manufactured using extremely high-precision

technology, so over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use.
However, there may be some tiny black points and/or bright points (white, red,
blue or green in color) that constantly appear on the LCD screen and the finder.
These points are normal in the manufacturing process and do not affect the
recording in any way.

•Do not let your camcorder get wet. Keep your camcorder away from rain and sea

water. Letting your camcorder get wet may cause your camcorder to malfunction.
Sometimes this malfunction cannot be repaired [a].

•Never leave your camcorder exposed to temperatures above 60°C (140°F), such as in a

car parked in the sun or under direct sunlight [b].

•Be careful when placing the camera near a window or outdoors. Exposing the LCD

screen, the finder or the lens to direct sunlight for long periods may cause
malfunctions [c].

•Do not directly shoot the sun. Doing so might cause your camcorder to malfunction.

Take pictures of the sun in low light conditions such as dusk [d].
