Others About the SD card ≥ The memory capacity indicated on the label of an SD card is the total of the capacity for copyright protection and management and the capacity which can be used on the unit, a computer etc. ≥ During prolonged use, the unit's surfaces and the SD card will heat up slightly. This is normal. Always set the mode dial to OFF when inserting or removing an SD card. While an SD card is being accessed (while or is displayed/ the card access lamp lights up), do not open the SD card/battery cover and remove the SD card, operate the mode dial, turn off the power or shake or impact the unit. About the miniSD Card ≥ Be sure to insert miniSD Cards in the dedicated card adaptor before use. Inserting a card in this unit without the adaptor may damage the unit or the card. ≥ Do not insert an empty card adaptor in this unit. Do not leave the adaptor in this unit while inserting or removing miniSD Cards. This may cause the unit to malfunction. LCD monitor ≥ When the LCD monitor gets dirty, wipe it with a dry soft cloth. ≥ In a place with drastic temperature changes, condensation may form on the LCD monitor. Wipe it with soft dry cloth. ≥ When the unit has become very cold, for example due to storage in a cold area, its LCD monitor will be slightly darker than usual immediately after the power is turned on. The normal brightness will be restored when the unit's internal temperature rises. Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the LCD Monitor screen featuring a total of approximately 300,000 pixels. The result is more than 99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of the pixels inactive or always lit. However, this is not a malfunction and does not affect the recorded picture. About condensation When condensation forms on the unit, the lens will cloud up and the unit may not work properly. Make every effort to ensure that condensation does not form. If it does form, take the actions described below. Causes of condensation Condensation takes place when the ambient temperature or humidity is changed as follows. ≥ When this unit is brought inside from the cold (e.g. a ski slope) to a warm room. ≥ When this unit is moved from an air-conditioned car to outside. ≥ When a cold room has been warmed up quickly. ≥ When cool wind from an air conditioner is directly blown onto this unit. ≥ After summer afternoon showers of rain. ≥ When this unit is in a very humid place where the air is thick with steam. (e.g. a heated swimming pool) When this unit is taken to a location with a significant temperature difference such as from a cold place to a hot place. If, for example, you have used this unit for recording on a ski slope and are taking it into a heated room, place the unit inside a plastic bag, remove as much of the air from inside the bag as possible, then seal the bag. Leave the unit for about an hour in the room so the temperature of the unit is close to the ambient temperature of the room, then use it. What to do if the lens is fogged up.
