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 124) 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.
Canon shall not be liable for any data loss.
• Do not carry the camcorder by the LCD panel. Be careful when closing the LCD 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, with the exception of the
supplied stylus pen, do not use ballpoint pens or other hard-tipped tools to operate the touch
screen. This may damage the touch screen’s surface or the pressure-sensitive layer beneath it.
• Do not attach protective film on the touch screen. The touch screen’s operation is based on
detecting applied pressure, so you may not be able to correctly operate the touch screen with an
additional protective layer.
• 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 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.
• When mounting the camcorder on a tripod, make sure that the
tripod’s fastening screw is shorter than 6.5 mm (0.26 in.). Using
other tripods may damage the camcorder.
• When recording movies, try to get a calm, stable picture.
Excessive camcorder movement while shooting and extensive use
of fast zooms and panning can result in jittery scenes. In extreme
cases, the playback of such scenes may result in visually induced
motion sickness. If you experience such a reaction, stop the playback immediately and take a rest
break as necessary.
• Do not insert the supplied stylus pen into the mouth. If swallowed, seek medical assistance
immediately.
• Handle the supplied stylus pen with extreme care and keep it out of the reach of children. If
mishandled, the stylus pen can present a risk of severe eye injury and even blindness.
