2) Standard recording by using the LCD screen.
3) Making a recording by looking at the LCD screen
from the top.
4) Making a recording by looking at the LCD screen
from the front.

1) Do not place the camcorder so that the
viewfinder is pointing towards the sun.
Direct sunlight can damage the inside of
the viewfinder. Be careful when placing
the camcorder under sunlight or by a
window.
2) Do not pick up the camcorder by the
viewfinder.
3) Unintended rotation may cause damage
to the viewfinder.
1) A sudden rise in atmospheric temperature may cause condensa-
tion to form inside the camcorder.
for example:
■ When you take the camcorder from cold temperature outside to
warm temperature inside during the winter.
■ When you take the camcorder from cool temperature inside to
hot temperature outside during the summer.
2) If the “DEW” protection feature is activated, leave the camcorder
in a dry, warm room with the cassette compartment opened
and the battery removed.
3) If the “DEW” protection feature is activated unexpectedly, and
you want to override it, detach, then reinstall the battery pack
and lithium battery.
Please make sure that the condensation has disappeared
completely. (see page 66)

✤ Make sure that the battery pack is charged before recording outdoors.
✤ To preserve battery power, keep your camcorder turned off when you are not operating it.
✤ When your camcorder is in CAMERA mode, if it is left in STANDBY for more than 5 minutes
without operation, it will automatically turn off to protect against unexpected battery discharge.
✤ It is a good idea to use the viewfinder instead of the LCD when recording for a long time because
the LCD uses more battery power.
✤ Make sure that the battery pack is fitted firmly into place.
Dropping the battery pack might damage it.
✤ When the battery reaches the end of its life, please contact your local dealer.
The batteries have to be dealt with as chemical waste.
W
arning: Keep the LITHIUM BATTERY out of the reach of children. Should the battery be swal-
lowed, consult a doctor immediately.
✤ The lithium battery maintains the clock function, TITLE, CUSTOM function and preset contents
memory; even if the battery pack or AC power adapter is removed.
✤ The lithium battery for the camcorder lasts about 8~10 months under normal operation from time of
installation.
✤ When the lithium battery becomes weak or dead, the date/time indicator flashes about 5 seconds
when you set the power switch to CAMERA. In this case, replace the lithium battery with type CR2025.
(see page 21)
Notices regarding the Lithium battery
* When the lithium battery
becomes weak or dead please
contact your local dealer. The

it may be difficult to view. If this occurs, use the viewfinder.
3) The LCD monitor's OSD is turned off when the LCD is
placed in the forward direction.
✤ To protect against tape and head-drum wear, your camcorder will automatically turn off if it is left in
STANDBY mode without operation for more than 5 minutes.
5 minutes off timer in STANDBY mode
✤ It is very important to adjust the hand strap for better
recording. (see page 20)
✤ Do not insert your hand in the hand strap forcibly,
the buckle may be damaged.
Notices regarding the hand strap
✤ To ensure normal recording and clear picture, clean the video heads. When playing back the pictures,
if they are noisy or hardly visible, the video heads may be dirty. If this happens, clean the video heads
with a dry type cassette cleaner.
✤ Do not use a wet type cassette cleaner. It may damage the video heads. (see page 61)
