SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Do not point the lens or the viewfinder directly into the sun. This can cause eye injuries, as well as
lead to the malfunctioning of internal circuitry. There is also a risk of fire or electric shock.
CAUTION!
The following notes concern possible physical damage to the camcorder and to the user.
When carrying, be sure to always attach and use the provided hand strap. Hold the camcorder
firmly in your hand, with the strap securely around your wrist. Carrying or holding the
camcorder by the viewfinder and/or the LCD monitor can result in dropping the unit, or in a
malfunction.
Take care not to get your finger caught in the cassette cover. Do not let children operate the
camcorder, as they are particularly susceptible to this type of injury.
Do not use a tripod on unsteady or unlevel surfaces. It could tip over, causing serious damage to
the camcorder.
CAUTION!
Attaching the camcorder to the Docking Station with cables (Audio/Video, S-Video, Editing, DC,
etc.) connected, then leaving it on top of the TV is not recommended, as tripping on the cables will
cause the camcorder to fall, resulting in damage.
