≥A strong impact on the movie camera may

break its housing, causing it to malfunction.

Do not use benzine, paint thinner or alcohol
for cleaning the movie camera.
≥Before cleaning, detach the battery or pull out

the AC mains lead from the AC mains socket.

≥The camera body may be discoloured and the

surface finish may peel off.

≥Wipe the movie camera with a soft dry cloth to

remove dust and fingerprints. To remove
stubborn stains, wring well a cloth that is soaked
in a neutral detergent diluted with water and
wipe the movie camera with it. Afterwards, wipe
it with a dry cloth.

≥When you use a chemical dust cloth, follow the

instructions.

Do not use this movie camera for surveillance
purposes or other business use.
≥If you use the movie camera for a long time, the

internal temperature increases and,
consequently, this may cause malfunction.

≥This movie camera is not intended for business

use.

About the battery

The battery used in the movie camera is a
rechargeable lithium ion battery. This battery is
susceptible to temperature and humidity, and the
effect of temperature increases with increasing or
decreasing temperature. In the low temperature
range, the fully charged indication may not
appear, or the low battery indication may appear
about 5 minutes after the start of use. At high
temperature, moreover, the protection function
may work, disabling use of the movie camera.
Be sure to detach the battery after use
≥If the battery is left attached to the movie

camera, a minute amount of current is
consumed even when the movie camera power
is [OFF]. If the battery is left attached to the
movie camera for a long time, over-discharge
takes place. The battery may become unusable
after it is charged.

Prepare spare batteries when going out for
recording.
≥Prepare batteries appropriate to 3 to 4 times the

period during you want to record pictures in. In
cold places such as a ski resort, the period
during which you can record pictures is
shortened.

≥When you travel, do not forget to bring an AC

adaptor so that you can recharge the batteries
at your destination.

If you drop the battery accidentally, check to
see if the terminals are deformed.
≥Attaching a deformed battery to the movie

camera or AC adaptor may damage the movie
camera or AC adaptor.

After use, be sure to take the cassette out and
detach the battery from the movie camera or
pull out the AC mains lead from AC mains
socket.
≥The battery should be stored in a cool place free

from humidity, with as constant temperature as
possible. (Recommended temperature: 15

oC to

25

oC, Recommended humidity: 40% to 60%)

≥Extremely high temperatures or low

temperatures will shorten the life of the battery.

≥If the battery is kept in a high-temperature, high-

humidity, or oily-smoky places, the terminals
may rust and cause malfunctions.

≥To store the battery for a long period of time, we

recommend you charge it once every year and
store it again after you have completely used up
the charged capacity.

≥Dust and other matter attached to the battery

terminals should be removed.

Do not throw old battery into fire.
≥Heating a battery or throwing it into a fire may

result in an explosion.

≥If the operating time is very short even after the

battery has been recharged, the battery has
worn out. Please purchase a new battery.

ª

About the AC adaptor

≥If the battery is warm, charging requires more

time than normal.

≥If the temperature of the battery is extremely

high or extremely low, the [CHARGE] lamp may
continue flashing, and the battery may not be
charged. After the battery temperature has
decreased or increased sufficiently, recharging
starts automatically. So, wait for a while. If the
lamp still continues flashing even after the
recharging, the battery or AC adaptor may be
faulty. If so, please contact a dealer.

≥If you use the AC adaptor near a radio, radio

reception may be disturbed. Keep the AC
adaptor 1 metre or more away from radio.

≥When using the AC adaptor, it may generate

whirring sounds. However, this is normal.

≥After use, be sure to pull out the AC mains lead

from the AC mains socket. (If they are left
connected, a minute amount of current is
consumed.)

≥Always keep the electrodes of the AC adaptor

and battery clean.
