Watch for Condensation even before the

Condensation Indication is displayed.

≥Because condensation takes place gradually,

the Condensation Indication may not be

displayed during the first 10 to 15 minutes of

condensation formation inside the Movie

Camera.

≥In extremely cold places, condensation may

freeze and form frost. In this case, the frost melts

first, thus forming condensation, and then it

takes another 2 to 3 hours to eliminate the

condensation.

When the Lens is Fogged:

Set the [VCR/OFF/CAMERA/M-CARD] Switch to

[OFF] and leave the Movie Camera in this

condition for about 1 hour. When the lens

temperature becomes close to the ambient

temperature, the fog disappears naturally.

ª Video Head Clogging and Care

If the heads (the parts that make contact with

tape) are dirty, mosaic-pattern noise may appear

on the playback image, or the screen as a whole

becomes black. If the heads are extremely dirty,

recording performance deteriorates, and, in the

worst case, the Movie Camera cannot record at

all.

Causes of Dirty Heads

≥Large quantity of dust in the air

≥High-temperature and high-humidity

environment

≥Damaged tape

≥Long operating hours

Using Mini-DV Format Digital Video Head

Cleaner

1 Insert the Head Cleaner into the Movie

Camera in the same manner as a

Video Cassette.

2 Press the [1] Button, and

approximately 20 seconds later, press

the [∫] Button. (Do not rewind the

tape.)

3 Take out the Head Cleaner. Insert a

Video Cassette and start recording.

Then, play the tape back to check the

recorded image.

4 If the image is not still clear, repeat

Steps 1 to 3. (Do not use the Head

Cleaner for 3 times or more

consecutively.)

Notes:

≥Do not rewind every time you use the Head

Cleaner. Rewind only when the tape reaches the

end, and then use it again from the beginning in

the same manner as before.

≥If the heads become dirty soon after cleaning,

the tape may be damaged. In this case,

immediately stop using that Cassette.

≥Do not clean the heads excessively. (Excessive

cleaning may cause excessive wear of the

heads. If the heads are worn, images cannot be

played back even after the heads are cleaned.)

≥If the dirty heads cannot be cleaned with the

Head Cleaner, the Movie Camera needs to be

cleaned at a service centre. Please consult a

dealer.

≥Video Head Cleaners can be purchased from

service centres.

≥Head cleaning due to dirty heads is not

considered a malfunction of the product. It is not

covered by the warranty.

Periodical Check-up

To maintain the highest image quality, we

recommend replacement of worn parts, such as

heads, etc., after approximately 1000 hours of

use. (This, however, depends on operating

conditions, such as temperature, humidity, dust,

etc.)

ª Optimal Use of the Battery

Battery Characteristics

This Battery is a rechargeable lithium ion battery.

Its ability to generate power is based upon the

chemical reaction that takes place inside it. This

reaction is susceptible to the surrounding

temperature and humidity, and, if the temperature

is too high or too low, the operating time of the

Battery becomes shorter. If the Battery is used in

an extremely cold environment, the Battery may

operate only for about 5 minutes. If the Battery

becomes extremely hot, a protective function may

operate, and the Battery may become unusable

for a while.

Be Sure to Detach the Battery after Use

Be sure to detach the Battery from the Movie

Camera. (If it 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.
