Preface Congratulations on your purchase of this advanced video camera. Ensure that you read this manual carefully and keep it in a safe place for future reference. About this manual Every effort has been made to ensure that the contents of this manual are correct and up to date. However, no guarantee is made regarding the accuracy of the contents.
Precautions General precautions • • • • • • • • • vi Do not use or store the product in dusty, dirty, or sandy areas, as its components may be damaged. Do not store the product in a hot environment. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries and warp or melt certain plastics. Do not store the product in cold areas. When the product warms up to its normal temperature, moisture can form inside, which may damage the electronic circuits.
• Test for proper operation before using the camera. Notes on the LCD Screen Be very careful to ensure the fluid contained in the LCD screen does not escape if the screen becomes cracked or damaged. If this occurs, follow these steps: • • • If the fluids make contact with skin, wipe it with a clean cloth then rinse with a large amount of water. If the fluid makes contact with eyes, wash eyes with clean water for at least 15 minutes and go to the hospital as soon as possible.
• • • • Ensure the battery is inserted correctly. Inserting the battery incorrectly can cause damage to the product and possibly start a fire. Remove the battery to avoid the fluid leakage if the camera is not going to be used for a long time. If the battery is crushed or damaged, remove it immediately to avoid the battery fluid leakage and abnormal expansion. The camera can be used with either a Li-ion or four AAA size batteries. Li-ion battery is recommended to use for longer operation time.
