one spot and in the surround for up to two spots. These spots that can be normally occurred during

What is dew condensation?
 
Dew condensation happens when a camcorder is moved to a place where there is a significant temperature difference 
from the previous place. The Dew condenses on the external or internal parts of the camcorder, and on the reflection 
lens. When this happens, it may cause a malfunction or damage to the camcorder when using the device with the power 
on while there is dew condensation.
What can I do?
 
Turn the power off and detach the battery, and leave it in a dry area for 1~2 hours before using it.
When does the  dew condensation occur?
 
When the device is relocated to a place with a higher temperature than the previous location, or when using it in a hot 
area suddenly, it will cause condensation.
-  When recording outside in cold weather during the winter and then using it in indoors.
-  When recording outside in hot weather after being indoors or inside a car where the A/C was running.
Use the camcorder after dew condensation is completely disappeared. 
Be sure to use the recommended accessories supplied with the camcorder. For service, contact
