About moisture condensation . . .
You may have observed that pouring a cold liquid
into a glass will cause drops of water to form on
the glass' outer surface. This same phenomenon
occurs on the head drum of a camcorder when it
is moved from a cool place to a warm place, after
heating a cold room, under extremely humid
conditions or in a place directly subjected to the
cool air from an air conditioner.
Moisture on the head drum can cause severe
damage to the video tape, and can lead to
internal damage to the camcorder itself.
Serious malfunctioning
If malfunctioning occurs, stop using the unit
immediately and consult your local JVC dealer.
