The LCD screen is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology, so over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, there may be some tiny black points and/or bright points (white, red, blue, or green in color) that appear constantly on the LCD screen. These points are normal results of the manufacturing process and do not affect the recording in any way. See page 17 for the memory card you can use with this camcorder. Using the camcorder Do not hold the camcorder by the following parts, and also do not hold the camcorder by the jack covers. LCD screen Battery pack The camcorder is not dustproofed, dripproofed or waterproofed. See "About handling of your camcorder" (p. 86). US Black points White, red, blue or green points Exposing the LCD screen or the lens to direct sunlight for long periods of time may cause malfunctions. Do not aim at the sun. Doing so might cause your camcorder to malfunction. Take images of the sun only in low light conditions, such as at dusk. About changing the language setting The on-screen displays in each local language are used for illustrating the operating procedures. Change the screen language before using your camcorder if necessary (p. 15). Recording When you use a memory card with your camcorder for the first time, formatting the memory card with your camcorder (p. 66) is recommended for stable operation. All data recorded on the memory card will be deleted when it is formatted, and cannot be recovered. Save important data to your computer, etc., beforehand.
