Digital camcorder care
• When the digital camcorder is not to be used for a long time, disconnect the power
source and remove the tape. Periodically turn on the power, operate the camera and
player sections and play back a tape for about 3 minutes.
• Clean the lens with a soft brush to remove dust. If there are fingerprints on it, remove
them with a soft cloth.
• Clean the digital camcorder body with a dry soft cloth, or a soft cloth lightly
moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of solvent which may
damage the finish.

Charging
• Use only a lithium ion type battery pack.
• Place the battery pack on a flat surface without vibration during charging.
• The battery pack will get hot during charging. This is normal.
Others
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet when not in use for a long time. To disconnect
the power cord pull it out by the plug. Never pull the power cord itself.
• Do not operate the unit with a damaged cord or if the unit has been dropped or
damaged.
• Do not bend the power cord forcibly, or put a heavy object on it. This will damage
the cord and may cause a fire or electrical shock.
• Be sure that nothing metallic comes into contact with the metal parts of the
connecting plate. If this happens, a short may occur and the unit may be damaged.
• Always keep the metal contacts clean.
• Do not disassemble the unit.
• Do not apply mechanical shock or drop the unit.
• While the unit is in use, particularly during charging, keep it away from AM receivers
and video equipment because it will disturb AM reception and video operation.
• The unit becomes warm while in use. This is normal.
• Do not place the unit in locations that are:
- Extremely hot or cold
- Dusty or dirty
- Very humid
- Vibrating
If any difficulty should arise, unplug the unit and contact your nearest Sony dealer.
