(In some cases, it may become unrepairable.) ■ Do not install this unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight • This may deform the cabinet or damage the LCD screen. ■ Keep the unit away from elecromagnetic devices (such as TVs and video game machines). • Using the unit on or near a TV may result in distorted video or audio due to electromagnetic radiation. • The strong magnetic field produced by loudspeakers and large monitors can damage recordings or distort video images. • Electromagnetic radiation from computers can distort video and audio. • If a malfunction is suspected to have occurred due to the influence of a magnetic device, turn the unit off and remove the battery or unplug the AC adaptor. Then re-install the battery or reconnect the AC adaptor. Finally, turn the unit back on. ■ Do not use the unit near a radio transmitter or high-voltage equipment. • Recorded video and audio may be disrupted if used near a radio transmitter or high-voltage equipment. ■ When using the unit at the sea shore, be careful to avoid allowing sand or dust to get inside. • Sand and dust can damage the unit or card. (Be especially careful when inserting and removing cards.) ■ When carrying the unit, be careful not to drop it. • The unit can be damaged by strong shocks, and may malfunction. ■ Keep the unit away from contact with insecticides or other volatile materials. • Insecticides and other volatile materials can deform the unit and dissolve the finish. • Do not leave the unit in contact with rubber or vinyl products for long periods. ■ Secure deletion of data from memory cards and storage devices prior to disposal or transfer of the unit. • The format and delete functions on this unit or a PC will only change the file management data and leave data on the memory card or storage device intact. It is recommended that cards or storage devices either be physically destroyed or that commercially sold software be used to completely delete any data they contain. Management of data on memory cards and storage devices is the sole responsibility of the user. ■ Liquid crystal displays • The pixels of the LCD monitor are controlled to obtain high precision with 99.99 % of the effective pixels. This leaves less than 0.01 % of pixels that may not light or may remain on all the time. These phenomena are normal and will have no effect on the images you shoot. • There may be some unevenness on the screen depending on the image displayed. • Wiping or rubbing the LCD screen with a rough cloth may damage it. 14 Usage Precautions: Regarding this unit
