Wipe it with a soft dry cloth. ≥If your SD Video Camera is extremely cold when you turn its power on, the image on the LCD Monitor will be slightly darker than usual at first. However, as the internal temperature increases, it goes back to the normal brightness. ªOptimal Use of the Battery Battery CharacteristicsA lithium ion battery is a small-sized battery with large capacity. However, when it is cooled down due to the low temperature (10oC or less), the operating time becomes short by its characteristics and it may not operate properly. In this case, warm the battery moderately (e.g. in a pocket) and then insert it just before you use the Camera. (When using a body warmer, be careful not to directly make the battery touched to it.) Battery may be warmThe Battery may be warm after charge or use. This is not a malfunction. Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the LCD Monitor screen featuring a total of approximately 123,000 pixels. The result is more than 99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of the pixels inactive or always lit. However, this is not a malfunction and does not affect the recorded picture.
