clean at all times.

ª About the Battery

Battery characteristics

A lithium ion battery is a small-sized battery

with large capacity. However, when it is

cooled down due to the low temperature

(50oF (10oC) or less), the operating time

becomes short by its characteristics and it

may not operate properly. In this case,

warm the battery moderately (e.g. in a

pocket) and then insert it just before you

use the Camera. (When using a body

warmer, be careful that it does not directly

touch the battery.)

Be sure to detach the battery after use.

≥If it is left attached to this unit, a minute

amount of current is consumed even when

this unit power is off. If it is left for a long

time, over discharge takes place. The

battery may become unusable even after

it is charged.

Have spare batteries on hand when you

use this unit outdoors.

≥In a cold place, the recordable time will be

shorter.

≥When you travel, be sure to bring the

supplied AC adaptor for charging in the

place you are visiting.

If the battery is dropped, check that the

terminal is not deformed.

≥If the battery attached to this unit with the

terminal is deformed, it may damage the

body of SD Video Camera.

Be sure to pull out the battery and the

card, disconnect the plug after use.

≥Store the battery in a cool and dry place

with a relatively stable temperature.

(recommended temperature: 59 to 77°F

(15 to 25oC), recommended humidity:

40 to 60%)

≥Extremely high or low temperatures will

shorten the life of the battery.

≥If the battery is kept in hot, humid, smoky

or dusty places, the terminals may rust

and cause malfunctions.

≥Store the battery in a completely

discharged state. To store the battery for a

long period of time, we recommend

charging it once every year and storing it

again after you completely use up the

charged capacity.

Do not throw the battery into a fire.

≥If you heat or burn the battery, it may

cause an explosion.

≥The battery has a limited life.

If the operating time is drastically

shortened even after charging, the life has

expired. Replace it with a new battery.

ª Condensation

When using the camera outdoors during

very cold weather, dew can be formed on

the camera and the lens when you return to

a warm place.

If condensation takes place, the lens may

be fogged or the camera may not properly

operate. Take care not to cause

condensation and take the appropriate

countermeasures.

Causes of condensation

Differences in temperature and humidity as

shown below cause condensation.

≥When this unit is brought into a warm

room from outdoors in the cold.

≥When this unit is brought inside a car from

outside.

≥When warming a cold room suddenly.

≥When cool air from an air conditioner is

directly blowing on the unit.

≥When the place is humid.

When condensation has taken place:

≥Turn the power off and leave this unit in

this condition for about 1 hour. When the

camera becomes close to the ambient

temperature, the fog disappears naturally.

≥When you move this unit from a cold place

to a warm place, enclose the camera in a

plastic bag, wait until the camera is

warmed, and then take it out of the bag.

AV25PP.book 47 ページ２００３年１１月２５日　火曜日　午後１２時５分

ª About the LCD Monitor

≥In a place with drastic temperature

changes, condensation may form on the

LCD monitor. Wipe it with the cleaning

cloth (supplied).

≥Do not push the LCD monitor forcefully. It

may cause unevenness and malfunctions

to the monitor.

≥When the lens is aimed at a subject with

high contrast, the picture may look uneven

or after images may appear on the LCD

monitor. This is not a malfunction.

≥If this unit is extremely cold when you turn

the power on, the image on the LCD

monitor is slightly darker than usual at

first. However, as the internal temperature

increases, it goes back to the normal

brightness.

ª About the Lens

≥Do not touch the lens. Wipe the SD Video

Camera with the cleaning cloth (supplied)

when the lens becomes unclean. Do not

wipe stains on the lens with sharp objects.

The lens may be scratched or broken.

≥When the Lens is fogged up, turn off the

SD Video Camera and leave the SD Video

Camera in this condition for approx.

1 hour. When the lens temperature

becomes close to the ambient

temperature, the fog disappears naturally.

ª About the Memory Card

When the card access lamp is blinking

(when the card is being read), do not

remove the card, turn the power off, or

subject it to vibration or impact.

Do not leave the card in places where

there is high temperature or direct

sunlight, or where electromagnetic

waves or static electricity are easily

generated. Do not bend, drop, or subject

it to strong vibration.

≥If the above precautions are not taken, the

card or the recorded content may be

damaged.

Be sure to pull out and store the card

after use.

≥Keep the card in the storage bag to store

or carry the card around.

≥Do not allow dirt, dust or water to enter the

terminals on the back of the card. Do not

touch it with your fingers.

≥The SD Memory Card

has a write-protect

switch. Sliding the

switch to [LOCK]

prevents the contents in

the Memory Card from

deleting accidentally.

≥As a result of improper operations,

recorded data may be damaged or

erased. Panasonic does not assume

responsiblity for the loss caused by the

erasure of the recording data.

ª State of Power Lamp while

charging

The Power Lamp flashes while charging.

(Flashes approx. every 4 seconds when

charging is normal (flashes on approx. 2

seconds and off approx. 2 seconds).)

When the Power Lamps flashes more

quickly or slowly (or turns off), some

abnormality may have occurred.

The flashing speed suggests the following

states.

Extremely high precision technology is

employed to produce the LCD Monitor

screen featuring a total of approximately

117,600 pixels. The result is more than

99.99% effective pixels with a mere

0.01% of the pixels inactive or always lit.

However, this is not a malfunction and

does not affect the recorded picture.

AV25PP.book 48 ページ２００３年１１月２５日　火曜日　午後１２時５分

Flashing approx. every 1 second

(flashes on approx. 0.5 seconds and off

approx. 0.5 seconds):

≥The SD Video Camera, battery or AC

adaptor may be defective. Contact your

nearest Panasonic dealer.

Flashing approx. every 12 seconds

(flashes on approx. 6 seconds and off

approx. 6 seconds):

≥The ambient temperature or that of the

battery itself is too high or too low.

Charging proceeds, but will take a longer

time.

Turning off:

Charging is completed.

≥If the Power Lamp turns off when charging

is not completed, the AC Adaptor or the

battery is probably defective. Contact your

nearest Panasonic dealer.
