Precautions
USE & LOCATION
TO AVOID SHOCK HAZARD ... Your
Camcorder and power supply should not be
exposed to rain or moisture. Do not connect the
power supply or operate your Camcorder if it
gets wet. Your Camcorder has been designed
for outdoor use, however it is not designed to
sustain direct exposure to water, rain, sleet,
snow, sand, dust, or a direct splashing from a
pool or even a cup of coffee. This action could
permanently damage the internal parts of your
Camcorder. Do not attempt to disassemble this
unit. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Unplug your Camcorder from the power supply
before cleaning.
DO NOT AIM YOUR CAMCORDER AT THE
SUN OR OTHER BRIGHT OBJECTS
DO NOT LEAVE THE CAMCORDER WITH
THE EVF AIMED DIRECTLY AT THE SUN AS
THIS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE
INTERNAL PARTS OF THE EVF
DO NOT EXPOSE YOUR CAMCORDER TO
EXTENDED HIGH TEMPERATURE ... Such as,
in direct sunlight, inside a closed car, next to a

Charging time and recordable time
The times shown in the table below show the
times at a temperature of 68oF (25oC) and a
humidity of 60%. This is just a guide. If the
temperature is higher or lower than the specified
value, the charging time will become longer.
A Charging time
B Maximum continuously recordable time
“1h. 10 min.” indicates 1 hour 10 minutes.
The battery CGA-DU12 is supplied.
The times shown in the table are rough
estimates. The times indicate the recordable
time when the viewfinder is used. The times in
parentheses indicate the recordable time when
the LCD monitor is used.
We recommend the Battery Pack CGA-DU12
and CGA-DU21 for long recording time (2 hour
or more for continuous recording, 1 hour or
more for intermittent recording).
The recordable time will become shorter in the
following cases:
When you use both the viewfinder and the
LCD monitor simultaneously while rotating
the LCD monitor frontward to record yourself,
0 Lux MagicPix function, etc.
When you use this Camcorder with the LCD
monitor lit up by pressing the [POWER LCD]
button.
When you use accessories fitted on the
Camcorder’s smart accessory shoe such as
the stereo zoom microphone and video DC
light, etc..
The batteries heat up after use or charging. The
Camcorder being used will also heat up. This is
normal.
Along with the reduction of the battery capacity,
the display will change: r # s #
t # u # v. If the battery
discharges, then u (v) will flash.
