I V color systems differ from country to country. To view your recordings on a TV, you
need an NTSC system-based TV.

Television programs, films, video tapes, and other materials may be copyrighted.
Unauthorized recording of such materials may be contrary to the provision of the

Precautions on camcorder care
•The color viewfinder is manufactured using high-precision technology. However
there may be some tiny black points and/or bright points (red, blue or green in
color) that constantly appear in the viewfinder. These points are normal in the
manufacturing process and do not affect the recorded picture in any way. Over
99.99% are operational for effective use.
• Do not let the camcorder get wet. Keep the camcorder away from rain and sea water.
Letting the camcorder get wet may cause the unit to malfunction, and sometimes this
malfunction cannot be repaired [a]
• Never leave the camcorder exposed to temperatures above 140°F (60°C), such as in a
car parked in the sun or under direct sunlight
