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 TO AVOID CONDENSATION • Do not expose the camcorder to sudden or extreme changes in temperature. • Place the camcorder in an airtight plastic bag and let it adjust to temperature changes slowly before removing it from the bag.
