Note
on
moisture
condensation
Moisture may condense when you bring
your camcorder from a cold place into a
warm place (or vice versa) or when you use
your camcorder
in
a humid place as
follows:
• You bring your camcorder from a ski slope into
a place warmed up by a heating device.
• You bring your camcorder from an air
conditioned car
or
room into a hot place outside.
• You use your camcorder after a squall or a
shower.
• You use your camcorder in a hot and humid
place.
•
If
moisture
condensation
has
occurred
Leave your camcorder for about 1 hour
without turning it on.
Moisture
condensation
If
your camcorder is brought directly from a
cold place to a warm place, moisture may
condense inside your camcorder, on the
surface
of
the disc, or on the pickup lens.
This may cause a malfunction to your
camcorder.
• Do not use
or
store the camcorder and
accessories in the following locations:
- Anywhere extremely hot, cold,
or
humid.
Never leave them exposed to temperatures
above
60°C
(140
OF),
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.
• Operate your camcorder on DC 6.8 VI7.2 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 power cord (mains
lead), pull it by the plug and not the cord.
