About handling of your camcorder
On use and care
• Do not use or store the camcorder and
accessories in the following locations.
—Anywhere extremely hot or cold. Never
leave them exposed to temperatures above
60 °C (140 °F), such as under direct
sunlight, near heaters or in a car parked in
the sun. They may malfunction or become
deformed.
—Near strong magnetic fields or mechanical
vibration. The camcorder may malfunction.
—Near strong radio waves or radiation. The
camcorder may not be able to record
properly.
—Near AM receivers and video equipment.
Noise may occur.
—On a sandy beach or anywhere dusty. If
sand or dust gets in your camcorder, it may
malfunction. Sometimes this malfunction
cannot be repaired.
—Near windows or outdoors, where the LCD
screen, the viewfinder, or the lens may be
exposed to direct sunlight. This damages the
inside of the viewfinder or the LCD screen.
—Anywhere very humid.
• Operate your camcorder on DC 7.2 V (battery
pack) or DC 8.4 V (AC Adaptor).
• For DC or AC operation, use the accessories
recommended in these operating instructions.
• Do not let your camcorder get wet, for example,
from rain or sea water. If your camcorder gets
wet, it may malfunction. Sometimes this
malfunction cannot be repaired.
• If any solid object or liquid gets inside the
casing, unplug your camcorder and have it
checked by a Sony dealer before operating it
any further.
• Avoid rough handling, disassembling,
modifying, physical shock, or impact such as
hammering, dropping or stepping on the
product. Be particularly careful of the lens.
• Do not use a deformed or damaged battery pack.
• Keep the POWER switch setting to OFF when
you are not using your camcorder.
• Do not wrap your camcorder with a towel, for
example, and operate it. Doing so might cause
heat to build up inside.
• When disconnecting the power cord (mains
lead), pull it by the plug and not the lead.
• Do not damage the power cord (mains lead)
such as by placing anything heavy on it.
• Keep metal contacts clean.

button-type battery out of children’s reach. If
the battery is accidentally swallowed, consult a
doctor immediately.

—consult your local authorized Sony service
facility.
—wash off any liquid that may have contacted
your skin.
—if any liquid gets in your eyes, wash with
plenty of water and consult a doctor.
When not using your camcorder for a long time
• Turn on the camcorder and record and play back
images about once a month to keep it in an
optimum state for a long time.
• Use up the battery pack completely before
storing it.
Moisture condensation
If your camcorder is brought directly from a cold
place to a warm place, moisture may condense
inside your camcorder and cause a malfunction of
your camcorder.
If moisture condensation has occurred
Leave your camcorder for about 1 hour without
turning it on.
Note on moisture condensation
Moisture may condense when you bring your
camcorder from a cold place into a warm place
(or vice versa) or when you use your camcorder in
a humid place as shown below.
• When you bring your camcorder from a ski
slope into a place warmed up by a heating
device.
• When you bring your camcorder from an air
conditioned car or room into a hot place outside.
• When you use your camcorder after a squall or
a shower.
• When you use your camcorder in a hot and
humid place.
How to avoid moisture condensation
When you bring your camcorder from a cold
place into a warm place, put your camcorder in a
plastic bag and seal it tightly. Remove the bag
when the air temperature inside the plastic bag
has reached the ambient temperature (after about
1 hour).
