Preparing the Camcorder
The Camcorder’s Cooling System
The camcorder’s internal temperature is controlled using a cooling fan that
will turn on whenever the camcorder itself is turned on. However, you can
turn off the cooling fan temporarily if necessary.

NOTES
• Depending on the ambient temperature and other shooting conditions, the cooling fan may not turn off even if
you set [Fan] to [Automatic].
• The cooling fan cannot be turned off in mode.
• When changing the camcorder’s configuration, be careful not to obstruct the cooling fan’s air intake and
exhaust vents (marked respectively as AIR INTAKE and EXHAUST VENT).
• If you set an assignable button to [Fan] (A 87), you can press the button to toggle between the [On] and
[Automatic] settings.
Operating modes:
[On]: The cooling fan is on as long as the camcorder is on.
[Automatic]: The cooling fan is temporarily turned off. If the camcorder's internal temperature rises too much,
will appear in yellow on the left of the screen. If the temperature starts to become critical, the icon
will turn red and the cooling fan will come on to prevent overheating. Once the camcorder has
cooled off sufficiently, the fan will turn off again. While the fan is activated automatically,
will
appear next to the icon.
