clockwise till the larger "-" mark on the front of the cover aligns with the "-" mark on the DC camera light. Check 
that the front of the camera light is attached properly before turning the light on. 
 
Note: Only replace the camera light bulb with VM-CP4L (optional) to reduce the risk of fire. 
General Maintenance 
Cleaning the camcorder Heads 
Dirt can accumulate on the video heads on the camera causing the playback picture to become blurred or appear 
as if video information is lost. This often means that the video heads are dirty. Use a video head cleaner such as 
a dry type head cleaning tape to clean the heads. 
If after cleaning the heads the picture does not clear up consult your nearest dealer or VCR service center for 
professional head cleaning. 
 
Cleaning the Lens and Picture Tube of the Electronic Viewfinder 
The lens of the electronic viewfinder can be user-cleaned if dust, dirt, or other foreign matter adheres to it. 
 
1. Rotate and remove eye cup. 
2. Clean the picture tube face and lens.
