the jack covers.

Battery pack
The camcorder is not dustproofed, dripproofed

or waterproofed. See "Precautions" (p. 64).
Menu items, LCD panel, and lens
A menu item that is grayed out is not available

under the current recording or playback
conditions.
The LCD screen is manufactured using

extremely high-precision technology, so over
99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective
use. However, there may be some tiny black
points and/or bright points (white, red, blue,
or green in color) that appear constantly on the
LCD screen. These points are normal results of
the manufacturing process and do not affect the
recording in any way.
Black points
White, red, blue or green points
Exposing the LCD screen or the lens to direct

sunlight for long periods of time may cause
malfunctions.
Do not aim at the sun. Doing so might cause

your camcorder to malfunction. Take images
of the sun only in low light conditions, such as
at dusk.

About language setting

The on-screen displays in each local language

are used for illustrating the operating
procedures. Change the screen language before
using the camcorder if necessary (p. 19).
On recording
To ensure stable operation of the memory

card, it is recommended to format the memory
card with your camcorder before the first
use. formatting the memory card will erase
all the data stored on it and the data will be
irrecoverable. Save your important data on your
PC etc.
