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 200,000

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

•When the camcorder is not in use,

remember 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, the viewfinder eyepiece, or

the LCD monitor screen, whether or not

recording is in progress, as it may damage

the CCD sensor or LCD screen surface. Be

particularly careful when recording outside.

• When shooting in dark places, avoid sudden

brightly lit objects or light sources, such as

the sun. Otherwise, the image may white out.

Should this happen, point the lens in a

different direction until the picture returns to

normal.

•Avoid magnetic sources.

Using the camcorder near

strong fluorescent lights,

motors, televisions, or

other magnetic sources

may adversely affect

recorded images.

• Using the camcorder near a broadcasting

station or other powerful transmission

source may cause buzzing or picture

deterioration.

• Avoid shocks and

dropping.

Do not drop or otherwise

subject the camcorder to

hard shocks or strong

vibrations. Bumping or

striking the unit during

recording will generate

noise in the recorded image.

• Avoid placing the camcorder in close

proximity to lighting

equipment.

The heat from

incandescent lights

may deform the

camcorder, or cause it

to malfunction.

• Always respect prohibitions or restrictions

on the use of electronic equipment on

commercial flights or in other sensitive

areas.

• Be aware of the temperature and humidity.

You can use your camcorder at 0°C to

`40°C, and at 30% to 80% relative humidity.

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

circuitry.

• 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 excessive

smoke, steam or moisture.

Such environments can

cause malfunctions or

cause mildew to form on

the lenses. Be sure to

keep the unit in a well-

ventilated location.

• Some small, portable

tripods may be difficult

to attach and may not be

sturdy enough to

support your camcorder.

Be sure to use only a

strong, stable tripod.

• When using your camcorder in a cold

environment, the LCD monitor screen often

appears less bright immediately after the

power is turned on. This is not a malfunc-

tion. To prevent the camcorder from

becoming too cold, wrap it in a thick cloth

(a blanket, etc.).
