Liquid crystal display (LCD) • The LCD monitor is the product of highly precise technology. Among the total number of pixels (approx. 120,000 pixels for the LCD monitor), 0.01% or less pixels may be missing (black dots) or may remain lit as colored dots (red, blue, green). This shows the limitations of the current technology, and does not indicate a fault that will interfere with recording. Do not subject the camcorder to impact. • This camcorder is a precision machine. Take great care that you do not strike it against a hard object or let it fall. • When using a tripod, firmly secure the camcorder on it. Do not use the camcorder with a tripod in a place where it is subject to severe vibrations or impact. Do not point directly at the sun. • If direct sunlight strikes the lens, the camcorder could malfunction or a fire could occur. • Do not leave the camcorder with the LCD monitor exposed to direct sunlight: This could cause malfunctions. No sand or dust! • Fine sand or dust entering the camcorder or AC adapter/charger could cause malfunctions or defects. Heat on surface of product • As the disc mechanism will be very hot immediately after use, do not touch the metallic parts. • The surfaces of the camcorder, AC adapter/charger and battery will be slightly warm, but this does not indicate a fault. Be careful of ambient temperature. • If the temperature of this camcorder is too high or too low, normal recording/playback may not be possible. • Take care that the temperature of this camcorder, when connected to PC does not rise excessively (reference for usage: approx. 30 minutes at about 86ºF (30ºC)). • If you need to use the camcorder for recording/dubbing to DVD in a place where the temperature is high, avoid overheating by using the camcorder intermittently. Be careful of moisture condensation. • When you move the camcorder between places where the difference in temperatures is great-such as entering a lodge from a ski slope or going out of a cooled room or vehicle-condensation (vapor in air warmed or cooled to water droplets) could occur on the lens and/or inside the camcorder. If condensation occurs, do not open the disc compartment lid or card slot cover if possible. If condensation occurs on the lens, wipe it off with a soft, dry cloth. Even if the external surface of camcorder has dried, condensation may remain inside. Therefore, turn the camcorder off and leave it in a dry place for at least 1-2 hours before using it again. 168 Additional Information
