Storage E If you do not intend to use the camcorder for some time, store it in an area which is free of dust and moisture, and where the temperature is no higher than 86°F (30°C). After storage, check each part and function of your camcorder to make sure everything is still working properly. Note: • These cautions also apply to accessories such as battery packs and cassettes. Maintenance Viewfinder • Clean the viewfinder screen using a cotton swab. First, pull the viewfinder out until it stops. Then, press and hold the finder release button with a sharp object and pull the viewfinder all the way out. To reattach the viewfinder, first position the base horizontally and align it with the viewfinder's base. Then press it until it clicks back into place. • The viewfinder screen scratches easily. Take care when cleaning. LCD • Clean the LCD screen using a commercially available cleaning cloth for glasses. • Where there is a big change in temperature, moisture may form on the surface of the screen. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth. • At low temperatures the display may appear to be much darker than usual. This is not a fault, and as the screen warms up the display will return to normal. Camcorder body and lens • Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the camcorder body or lens. Never use chemically treated cloth or volatile solvents such as paint thinner. 132 Additional Information
