Precautions
USE & LOCATION
≥TO AVOID SHOCK HAZARD ... Your Palmcorder and 
power supply should not be exposed to rain or moisture. 
Do not connect the power supply or operate your 
Palmcorder if it gets wet. Your Palmcorder 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 Palmcorder. Do not attempt to disassemble 
this unit. There are no user serviceable parts inside. 
Unplug your Palmcorder from the power supply before 
cleaning.
≥DO NOT AIM YOUR PALMCORDER AT THE SUN OR 
OTHER BRIGHT OBJECTS
≥DO NOT LEAVE THE PALMCORDER WITH THE EVF 
AIMED DIRECTLY AT THE SUN AS THIS MAY CAUSE 
DAMAGE TO THE INTERNAL PARTS OF THE EVF
≥DO NOT EXPOSE YOUR PALMCORDER TO 
EXTENDED HIGH TEMPERATURE ... Such as, in direct 
sunlight, inside a closed car, next to a heater, etc... This 
action could permanently damage the internal parts of your 
Palmcorder.
≥AVOID SUDDEN CHANGES IN TEMPERATURE ... If the 
unit is suddenly moved from a cold place to a warm place, 
moisture may form on the tape and inside the unit.
≥DO NOT LEAVE YOUR PALMCORDER OR THE POWER 
SUPPLY TURNED ON WHEN NOT IN USE.
≥STORAGE OF YOUR PALMCORDER ... Store and handle 
your Palmcorder in a manner that will not subject it to 
unnecessary movement (avoid shaking and striking). Your 
Palmcorder contains a sensitive pick-up device which 
could be damaged by improper handling or storage.
CARE
≥TO CLEAN YOUR PALMCORDER ... Do not use strong or 
abrasive detergents when cleaning your Palmcorder body.
≥TO PROTECT THE LENS ... Do not touch the surface of 
the lens with your hand. Use a commercial Palmcorder 
lens solution and lens paper when cleaning the lens. 
Improper cleaning can scratch the lens coating.
≥TO PROTECT THE FINISH OF YOUR PALMCORDER ... 
Before handling your Palmcorder, make sure your hands 
and face are free from any chemical products, such as 
suntan lotion, as it may damage the finish.
This Product has fluorescent lamps that contain a small amount of mercury. It also contains lead in some components. 
Disposal of these materials may be regulated in your community due to environmental considerations. For disposal or 
recycling information please contact your local authorities, or the Electronics Industries Alliance:
