≥The camera body may be deformed and the surface finish

may peel off.

≥Before cleaning, detach the Battery or pull out the AC

Mains Lead from the AC mains socket.

≥Wipe the Movie Camera with a soft dry cloth. To remove

stubborn stains, wipe with a cloth that is soaked in a

detergent diluted with water and afterward finish wiping

with a dry cloth.

≥For storing or transporting the Movie Camera, place it in a

bag or case lined with soft pads so as to prevent the

coating on the camera body from being worn.

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.

≥If the Cassette is left in the Movie Camera, the tape sags

and deteriorates.

≥If the Battery is left on the Movie Camera for a long time,

the voltage drops excessively, and the Battery will not

function even after it is recharged.

About AC Adaptor

≥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 temperature

of the Battery has decreased or increased sufficiently,

charging starts automatically. If the [CHARGE] Lamp

continues to flash even after the Battery temperature has

decreased or increased sufficiently, the Battery or AC

Adaptor may be faulty. In this case, please contact a

dealer.

≥If the Battery is warm, charging takes a longer time than

normal.

≥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 the AC Adaptor is in use, 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.)

≥Keep the electrodes of the AC Adaptor and Battery always

clean.

Condensation

If the Condensation Indication flashes after the Movie

Camera is turned on, condensation has formed inside the

Movie Camera. In this case, the Movie Camera power is

turned off automatically after about 1 minute.

Follow the steps below:

Take out the Cassette.

≥None of the other functions operate. Depending on the

amount of condensation, removing the Cassette may

even become difficult. If this happens, wait for

2 to 3 hours before taking the Cassette out.

Open the Cassette Compartment Cover and

wait for 2 to 3 hours.

≥The number of hours to wait depends on the amount of

condensation and ambient temperature.

2 to 3 hours later, turn on the Movie Camera

power and check to see if the Condensation

Indication is displayed.

≥Even if the Condensation Indication is not displayed,

as a precaution, please wait for another hour before

using the Movie Camera.

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 [OFF/ON/MODE] 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.

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

Insert the Head Cleaner into the Movie Camera

in the same manner as a Video Cassette.

Push the Operation Lever towards [

] and

approximately 20 seconds later, push the

Operation Lever towards [

∫

]. (Do not rewind

the tape.)

Take out the Head Cleaner. Insert a Video

Cassette and start recording. Then, play the

tape back to check the recorded image.

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.)
