RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK).
NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an 
equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the 
presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the 
product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude 
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is 
intended to alert the user to the presence of important 
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in 
the literature accompanying the appliance.
When the equipment is installed in a cabinet or on 
a shelf, make sure that it has sufficient space on 
all sides to allow for ventilation (10 cm (3-15/16") 
or more on both sides, on top and at the rear).
Do not block the ventilation holes.
(If the ventilation holes are blocked by a 
newspaper, or cloth etc. the heat may not be able 
to get out.)
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, 
should be placed on the apparatus.
When discarding batteries, environmental 
problems must be considered and the local rules 
or laws governing the disposal of these batteries 
must be followed strictly.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or 
splashing.
Do not use this equipment in a bathroom or 
places with water.
Also do not place any containers filled with water 
or liquids (such as cosmetics or medicines, flower 
vases, potted plants, cups etc.) on top of this unit.
(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this 
equipment, fire or electric shock may be caused.)
Do not point the lens or the viewfinder directly into 
the sun. This can cause eye injuries, as well as 
lead to the malfunctioning of internal circuitry. 
There is also a risk of fire or electric shock.
CAUTION!
The following notes concern possible physical 
damage to the camcorder and to the user.
When carrying, be sure to always securely attach 
and use the provided strap. Carrying or holding 
the camcorder by the viewfinder and/or the LCD 
monitor can result in dropping the unit, or in a 
malfunction.
Take care not to get your finger caught in the 
cassette holder cover. Do not let children operate 
the camcorder, as they are particularly 
susceptible to this type of injury.
Do not use a tripod on unsteady or unlevel 
surfaces. It could tip over, causing serious 
damage to the camcorder.
CAUTION!
Connecting cables (Audio/Video, S-Video, etc.) to 
the camcorder and leaving it on top of the TV is 
not recommended, as tripping on the cables will 
cause the camcorder to fall, resulting in damage.
