Notes and Safety Instructions
Notes regarding the battery pack
-Make sure that the battery pack is fully charged before starting to record.
-To preserve battery power, keep your camcorder turned off when you are not operating it.
-If your camcorder is in CAMERA mode, and it is left in STBY mode without being operated for more than 5 minutes with a tape installed, it will automatically turn itself off to protect against unnecessary battery discharge.
-Make sure that the battery pack is fitted firmly into place. Dropping the battery pack may damage it.
-A brand new battery pack is not charged.
Before using the battery pack, you need to charge it completely.
-It is a good idea to use the viewfinder rather than the LCD when making a long recording, because the LCD uses up more battery power.
*When the battery reaches the end of its life, please contact your local dealer. The batteries have to be dealt with as chemical waste.
Notes regarding the Video Head Cleaning

Power Sources (United Kingdom Only)
The mains lead on the power adapter is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse.
The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug and, if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used.
Never use the plug with the fuse cover omitted if the cover is detachable.
If a replacement fuse cover is required, it must be of the same colour as the pin face of the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.
However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do NOT connect the plug to a mains socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
BLUE = NEUTRALBROWN = LIVE
As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK.
The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.
