Using The Fan - Canon XC10 Instruction Manual

Using the Fan

The camcorder uses an internal cooling fan to reduce the camcorder's internal heat.
Operating modes:
1 Press the MENU button.
2 Open the [Fan] submenu.
[ System Setup] > [1] > [Fan]
3 Select the desired option and then touch [X].
Options
[k Automatic]: The fan runs while the camcorder is not recording and it is
automatically turned off while the camcorder is recording
video (while the Ü icon appears at the top of the screen).
However, if the internal temperature of the camcorder is too high, the fan will be activated
automatically (in that case, ` will appear next to the b icon). When the camcorder's temperature
has decreased sufficiently, the fan will be turned off. Use this setting when you do not want the
camcorder to pick up the operating sound of the cooling fan.
[i On]: The fan runs at all times. Use this default setting in most cases.
IMPORTANT
• While the fan is running, the exhaust vent will emit warm air.
NOTES
• Be careful not to cover with tape or otherwise obstruct the cooling fan's air intake and exhaust vents (marked
as AIR INTAKE/EXHAUST VENT).
