• Use SD and SDHC memory cards only.
Never use other types of memory cards.
If you accidentally insert another type of
memory card into the recorder, contact an
authorized distributor or service center.
Do not try to remove the memory card by
force.
• Do not operate the unit while operating a
vehicle.
f Caution
• Stop using the recorder immediately if you
notice any unusual odors, noise, or smoke
around it.
• Never remove the battery with bare hands,
which may cause a fire or burn your hands.
• Do not leave the recorder in places where
it may be subject to extremely high
temperatures. Doing so may cause parts
to deteriorate and, in some circumstances,
cause the recorder to catch fire. Do not use
the charger or AC adapter if it is covered. This
could cause overheating, resulting in fire.
• Handle the recorder with care to avoid
getting a low-temperature burn.
• When the recorder contains metal
parts, overheating can result in a low-
temperature burn. Pay attention to the
following:
• When used for a long period, the recorder
will get hot. If you hold on to the recorder
in this state, a low-temperature burn may
be caused.
• In places subject to extremely cold
temperatures, the temperature of the
recorder's body may be lower than the
environmental temperature. If possible,
wear gloves when handling the recorder in
cold temperatures.
