[w Other Functions] [Fan] [On] Options [On]: The fan runs at a slow speed at all times (except when the camcorder is in power save mode, then it is turned off). Use this default setting in most cases. [Automatic]: The fan runs at a high speed while the camcorder is not recording (including during power save mode) and it is automatically turned off while the camcorder is recording. However, if the internal temperature of the camcorder is too high (b appears in red), the fan will be activated automatically (in that case, ` will appear next to the b icon). When the camcorder's temperature has decreased sufficiently, the fan will be turned off. Use this setting when you do not want the camcorder to pick up the operating sound of the cooling fan. NOTES • Be careful not to cover with tape or otherwise obstruct the cooling fan's air intake and exhaust vents (marked as AIR INTAKE/EXHAUST VENT). Exhaust vents Intake vents
