WARNING

To prevent fire or shock hazard,

do not expose this apparatus to

dripping or splashing. No

objects filled with liquids, such

as vases, should be placed on

the apparatus.

This equipment should be used with the

recommended AC adapter or battery

pack.

CAUTION

To prevent electric shocks and fire

hazards, do NOT use any other power

source.

Important:

Recording and playback of any material

may require consent. Please refer

particularly to the provisions of the

Musical Performers Protection Act 1958,

the Performers Protection Acts 1963 and

1972 and to any subsequent statutory

enactments and orders.

CAUTION

To prevent shock, do not open the

dealer or service centre.

Power supply:

WARNING: THIS AC ADAPTER

IS NOT FOR USE WITH TOYS.

THIS AC ADAPTER IS FOR USE

WITH SHARP CAMCORDER

MODEL VL-Z5H/VL-Z3H ONLY.

This unit can be operated by

connecting it to either the AC adapter

or battery pack. The AC adapter

incorporates the AUTO VOLTAGE (AC

110–240 V, 50/60 Hz) function.

SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.

The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug

incorporating a 3A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA

approved BS 1362 fuse marked or and of the same rating as above, which

is also indicated on the pin face of the plug, must be used.

Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the

fuse cover fitted.

In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with

the plug supplied, cut-off the mains plug and fit an appropriate type.

DANGER: The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug

destroyed immediately and disposed of in a safe manner.

Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted

elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet, as a serious electric shock may

occur.

To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:

IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the

following code:

Blue: Neutral

Brown: Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond

with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as

follows:

— The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which

is marked N or coloured black.

— The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal

which is marked L or coloured red.

Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal

in your three- pin plug.

Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:

— If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed

from the cut-off plug.

— The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead and not simply

over the lead wires.

IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

NOTE:

The LCD panel of this camcorder is a very high technology product with more

than 215,000 thin-film transistors*, giving you fine picture detail. Occasionally, a

pixel may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green, red, or black.

Please note that this does not affect the performance of your camcorder.

Precautions

•Before recording an important scene,

please perform the recording test, then

playback to check if the scene was re-

corded properly. If noise occurs, use a

commercially available cleaning tape to

clean the video heads (see page xii).

•When the camcorder is not in use, re-

member to remove the cassette tape,

turn off the power, and disconnect the

camcorder from the power source.

•Do not aim the lens at the sun.

Do not allow direct sunlight to strike the

camcorder lens, whether or not recording

is in progress, as it may damage the CCD

sensor. Be particularly careful when re-

cording outside.

•Avoid magnetic sources.

Using the camcorder near

strong fluorescent lights,

motors, televisions, or

other magnetic sources

may adversely affect re-

corded images.

•Using the camcorder near a broad-

casting station or other powerful trans-

mission source may cause buzzing or

picture deterioration.

•Avoid shocks and dropping.

Do not drop or otherwise sub-

ject the camcorder to hard

shocks or strong vibrations.

Bumping or striking the unit

during recording will gener-

ate noise in the recorded

image.

•Avoid placing the

camcorder in close

proximity to lighting

equipment.

The heat from in-

candescent lights

may deform the

camcorder, or cause

it to malfunction.

•Always respect prohibitions or restric-

tions on the use of electronic equipment

on commercial flights or in other sensi-

tive areas.

•Be aware of the temperature and humid-

ity.

You can use your camcorder at 0°C to

L40°C, and at 30% to 80% relative hu-

midity. Do not store the unit in an

unventilated car in the summer, in direct

sunlight, or near

strong heat

sources; this can

result in severe

damage to the unit

casing and cir-

cuitry.

•Avoid situations where water, sand, dust

or other foreign matter could get on or

inside the camcorder, and do not use or

leave your camcorder in areas with ex-

cessive smoke, steam or moisture.

Such environments can cause malfunc-

tions or cause mil-

dew to form on the

lenses. Be sure to

keep the unit in a

well-ventilated loca-

tion.

•Some small, portable tri-

pods may be difficult to

attach and may not be

sturdy enough to sup-

port your camcorder. Be

sure to use only a

strong, stable tripod.

•When using your camcorder in a cold

environment, the LCD monitor screen of-

ten appears less bright immediately af-

ter the power is turned on. This is not a

malfunction. To prevent the camcorder

from becoming too cold, wrap it in a

thick cloth (a blanket, etc.).
