Handling Precautions
Camcorder
Be sure to observe the following precautions to ensure maximum performance.
Save your recordings periodically. Make sure to transfer your recordings to an external device
such as a computer or digital video recorder (A 114) and save them on a regular basis. This will
protect your important recordings in case of damage and create more free space on the memory
card. Canon shall not be liable for any data loss.
Do not carry the camcorder by the OLED panel. Be careful when closing the OLED panel. When
using a wrist strap, do not allow the camcorder to swing and hit an object.
Handle the touch screen with care. Do not apply excessive force and do not use ballpoint pens or
other hard-tipped tools to operate the touch screen. This may damage the touch screen’s surface.
Do not attach protective film on the touch screen. The camcorder features a capacitive touch
screen so you may not be able to correctly operate the touch screen with an additional protective
layer.
Do not hold the camcorder in the same posture for long periods of times as this may cause low-
temperature contact burns. Even if the camcorder does not feel too hot, prolonged contact with the
same body part may cause skin redness or blistering. The use of a tripod is recommended for
people with circulation problems or very sensitive skin, or when using the camcorder in very hot
places.
Do not leave the camcorder in places subject to high temperatures (like the inside of a car parked
under direct sunlight), or high humidity.
Do not use the camcorder near strong electromagnetic fields such as above TVs, near plasma TVs
or mobile phones.
Do not use the camcorder’s Wi-Fi functions inside hospitals, medical clinics or onboard aircraft. In
addition, do not use them near medical equipment or sensitive electronic devices as it may affect
their performance. In the case of pacemakers, keep the camcorder at least 22 cm (8.7 in.) away
from the device.
The camcorder’s Wi-Fi functions may be subject to interference from devices such as cordless
phones and microwave ovens. Keeping as much distance as possible from these devices or using
the camcorder’s Wi-Fi functions at a different time of day may reduce such interference.
Do not point the lens or viewfinder at strong light sources. Do not leave the camcorder pointed at a
bright subject.
Do not use or store the camcorder in dusty or sandy places. The camcorder is not waterproof –
avoid also water, mud or salt. If any of the above should get into the camcorder it may damage the
camcorder and/or the lens.
Be careful of heat generated by lighting equipment.
Do not disassemble the camcorder. If the camcorder does not function properly, consult qualified
service personnel.
Handle the camcorder with care. Do not subject the camcorder to shocks or vibration as this may
cause damage.
