Handling
Precautions
Camcorder
Be sure to observe the following precautions to ensure maximum per-
formance.
• Save your recordings periodically.
Make sure
to
transfer your record-
ings to
an
external device such as a computer or digital video recorder
(III
121) and save them on a regular basis. This will protect your impor-
tant recordings
in
case
of
damage and create more free space on the
memory. Canon shall not be liable for any data loss.
•
Do
not carry the camcorder by the LCD panel.
Be
careful when closing
the LCD panel. When using the wrist strap, do not allow the camcorder
to
swing and hit
an
object.

in
places subject to high temperatures (like
the inside of a car parked under direct sunlight), or high humidity.

and/or the lens.

If
the camcorder does not function
