Handling Discs
OUsing discs
DVD-RAM and DVD-R discs are very delicate
recording media. Carefully read the following
cautions and observe them:
• Always use a brand new disc when recording
important material.
• Be sure not to touch the disc surface, and be
careful that no dirt adheres to it.
• If there is dust, a scratch, or dirt on disc or if
it is warped, the following phenomena may
Occur:
Block noise

Even f d scs norma, the
. (Fig, 1)
above phenomena may
occasionally occur. While the ACCESS/PC
indicator is lit, do not subject disc to vibrations or
impact, and avoid using DVD Video Camera at
extremely high or low temperatures, or in an
environment where condensation is likely to
Occur.
• When recording images,
the DVD Video Camera
may avoid the portions of
disc where recording is not
possible, due to dust,
scratches, etc. lit will i',_;PLAY : _A_II

This will cause recording
to be interrupted for several seconds to several
minutes, and multiple thumbnails will be created
by one recording session as shown above. In this
case, the recordable time on disc will decrease.
• Be careful when removing the disc since the
metal of removal slot of DVD Video Camera, and
disc itself, may be hot.
QStoring discs
• To store a disc, insert it in the plastic case you
received when you purchased it.
• Take care that no condensation occurs on disc.
• Do not place disc in the following places:
- Direct sunlight for a long time
Where humidity is high or in dusty place
- Where there is heat from a heater, etc.
QDisc Cleaning
Use Disc Cleaning Cloth to lightly wipe off any dust,
dirt, etc. adhering to disc, as shown in the figure.
Never use solvent. Do not use thinner, water, anti-
static spray, etc. to clean disc.
Use Disc Cleaning Cloth
to clean from inner to
outer circumference in
axial direction, or use
puffer to blow dust off disc,
like on camera lens.
Note:
Disc Cleaning Cloth is supplied with product.
We also recommend using a DVD Disc cleaner (model no.
