Important Notes About the Hard Disk Drive Your hard disk camcorder allows you to shoot and store many hours of video. However, there are differences between recording onto a hard disk and recording onto other media. Make sure to follow the points below when using your camcorder. For more details, refer to Handling Precautions ( 116). Back up your recordings periodically Make sure to transfer your movies and photos to an external device such as a computer or digital video recorder ( 82) and back them up regularly and especially after making important recordings. Canon shall not be liable for any loss or corruption of data. Do not subject the camcorder to vibrations or strong impacts The hard disk is a high-precision device. Vibrations, strong impacts or dropping the camcorder may result in permanent data loss. Keep the drop sensor activated whenever possible The drop sensor ( 99) detects when the camcorder is dropped and activates a protection mechanism to help prevent hard disk damage. Turning this function off will disable the mechanism. Even if this function is set to [ On] and the camcorder is dropped, hard disk damage can occur. Do not disconnect the power source while the camcorder is on Always turn the camcorder off before removing the battery or compact power adapter. 8
