Condensation
Moving the camcorder rapidly between
hot and cold temperatures may cause
condensation (water droplets) to form
on its internal surfaces. Stop using the
camcorder if condensation is detected.
Continued use may damage the
camcorder.
Condensation may form in the following
cases:
• When the camcorder is moved quickly
from cold to warm places
• When the camcorder is left in a humid
room
• When a cold room is heated rapidly
• Do not expose the camcorder to
sudden or extreme changes in
temperature.
• Remove the disc and memory card
and the camcorder in an airtight
plastic bag. Let the camcorder adjust
to temperature changes slowly before
removing it from the bag.
• If a disc is loaded, remove the disc
immediately and leave the disc cover
open. Leaving the disc in the
camcorder may damage it.
• A disc cannot be loaded when
condensation is detected.
The precise time required for water
droplets to evaporate will vary
depending on the location and weather
conditions. As a general rule, wait for
2 hours before resuming use of the
camcorder.
