About battery life • Battery capacity decreases over time and through repeated use. If decreased usage time between charges becomes significant, it is probably time to replace it with a new one. • Each battery's life is governed by storage, operating and environmental conditions. Maintenance and precautions On use and care • Do not use or store the camcorder and accessories in the following locations: - Anywhere extremely hot or cold. Never leave them exposed to temperatures above 60 °C (140 °F), such as under direct sunlight, near heaters or in a car parked in the sun. They may malfunction or become deformed. - Near strong magnetic fields or mechanical vibration. The camcorder may malfunction. - Near strong radio waves or radiation. The camcorder may not be able to record properly. - Near AM receivers and video equipment. Noise may occur. - On a sandy beach or anywhere dusty. If sand or dust gets in your camcorder, it may malfunction. Sometimes this malfunction cannot be repaired. - Near windows or outdoors, where the LCD screen, the viewfinder, or the lens may be exposed to direct sunlight. This damages the inside of the viewfinder or the LCD screen. - Anywhere very humid. • Operate your camcorder on DC 7.2 V (battery pack) or DC 8.4 V (AC Adaptor). • For DC or AC operation, use the accessories recommended in these operating instructions. • Do not let your camcorder get wet, for example, from rain or sea water. If your camcorder gets wet, it may malfunction. Sometimes this malfunction cannot be repaired. • If any solid object or liquid gets inside the casing, unplug your camcorder and have it checked by a Sony dealer before operating it any further. • Avoid rough handling, disassembling, modifying, physical shock, or impact such as hammering, dropping or stepping on the product. Be particularly careful of the lens. • Keep the POWER switch setting to OFF (CHG) when you are not using your camcorder. • Do not wrap your camcorder with a towel, for example, and operate it. Doing so might cause heat to build up inside. • When disconnecting the mains lead, pull it by the plug and not the cord. • Do not damage the power cord such as by placing anything heavy on it. • Keep metal contacts clean.
