MOISTURE.

CAUTIONS:

䡲If you notice smoke or a peculiar smell coming

from the camcorder or AC adapter, shut it

down and unplug it immediately. Continue

using the camcorder or AC adapter under

these conditions could lead to fire or electric

shock. Contact your JVC dealer. Do not

attempt to repair the malfunction yourself.

user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to

qualified personnel.

䡲When you are not using the AC Adapter for a

long period of time, it is recommended that

you disconnect the power cord from AC outlet.

EN3

CAUTIONS:

●This camcorder is designed to be used with PAL-type colour television signals. It cannot be used for

playback with a television of a different standard. However, live recording and LCD monitor/viewfinder

playback are possible anywhere.

●Use the JVC BN-V408U/V416U/V428U battery packs and, to recharge them or to supply power to the

camcorder from an AC outlet, use the provided multi-voltage AC Adapter and Power Cord. (An

appropriate conversion adapter may be necessary to accommodate different designs of AC outlets in

different countries.)

When the equipment is installed in a cabinet or on a shelf, make sure that it has sufficient space on all

sides to allow for ventilation (10 cm or more on both sides, on top and at the rear).

Do not block the ventilation holes.

(If the ventilation holes are blocked by a newspaper, or cloth etc. the heat may not be able to get out.)

No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the apparatus.

When discarding batteries, environmental problems must be considered and the local rules or laws

governing the disposal of these batteries must be followed strictly.

The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing.

Do not use this equipment in a bathroom or places with water.

Also do not place any containers filled with water or liquids (such as cosmetics or medicines, flower vases,

potted plants, cups etc.) on top of this unit.

(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this equipment, fire or electric shock may be caused.)

4EN

Do not point the lens or the viewfinder directly into the sun. This can cause eye injuries, as well

as lead to the malfunctioning of internal circuitry. There is also a risk of fire or electric shock.

CAUTION!

The following notes concern possible physical damage to the camcorder and to the user.

When carrying, be sure to always securely attach and use the provided shoulder strap.

Carrying or holding the camcorder by the viewfinder and/or the LCD monitor can result in

dropping the unit, or in a malfunction.

Take care not to get your finger caught in the cassette holder cover. Do not let children operate

the camcorder, as they are particularly susceptible to this type of injury.

Do not use a tripod on unsteady or unlevel surfaces. It could tip over, causing serious damage

to the camcorder.

CAUTION!

Connecting cables (Audio/Video, S-Video, etc.) to the camcorder and leaving the unit on top of

the TV is not recommended, as tripping on the cables will cause the camcorder to fall, resulting

in damage.

䡲This camcorder is designed exclusively for the digital video cassette, SD Memory Card and

MultiMediaCard. Only cassettes marked “”and memory cards* marked “ ” or

Lithium-ion is vulnerable in colder temperatures.

About Batteries

DANGER! Do not attempt to take the batteries apart, or expose them to flame or excessive heat, as it may

cause a fire or explosion.

WARNING! Do not allow the battery or its terminals to come in contact with metals, as this can result in a

short circuit and possibly start a fire.

The Benefits Of Lithium-Ion Batteries

Lithium-ion battery packs are small but have a large power capacity. However, when one is exposed to cold

temperatures (below 10°C), its usage time becomes shorter and it may cease to function. If this happens, place the

battery pack in your pocket or other warm, protected place for a short time, then re-attach it to the camcorder. As

long as the battery pack itself is not cold, it should not affect performance.

(If you’re using a heating pad, make sure the battery pack does not come in direct contact with it.)

Read the kit's instruction manual before using.
