a short circuit or heat generation and, if you 
touch the Battery in this condition, you may 
be badly burned.
≥Store the Battery in a completely discharged 
state. To store the Battery for a long period of 
time, we recommend you charge it once every 
year and store it again after you completely use 
up the charged capacity.
Cassette
≥Before storing it, rewind the tape to the 
beginning. If the Cassette is left for more than 
6 months with the tape stopped midway, the 
tape sags (although it depends on the storage 
condition). Be sure to rewind to the beginning.
≥Store the Cassette in its case. Dust, direct 
sunlight (ultraviolet rays), or humidity may 
damage the tape. Dust contains hard mineral 
particles, and dusty Cassettes damage the 
heads of the Movie Camera and other 
components. Develop a habit of returning the 
Cassette back to its case.
≥Once every half year, wind the tape to the end 
and then rewind it to the beginning. If the 
Cassette is left for 1 year or longer without 
winding or rewinding, temperature and humidity 
changes may cause the Cassette to deform due 
to swelling, shrinking, and so forth. The wound 
tape may stick to itself.
≥Do not place a Cassette near highly magnetic 
substances or equipment.
≥The surface of tape is covered with extremely 
minute magnetic particles, upon which signals 
are recorded. Magnetic necklaces, toys, etc., 
have magnetic force that is stronger than you 
may normally expect, and they may erase the 
contents of a recording or may cause noise in 
images and sounds.
Card
≥When the Card is being read, do not remove the 
Card, turn off the power, or subject it to vibration 
or impact.
≥Do not leave the Card in places where there is 
high temperature or direct sunlight, or where 
electromagnetic waves or static electricity are 
easily generated.
≥Do not bend or drop the Card. The Card or the 
recorded content may be damaged.
≥After use, be sure to remove the Card from the 
Movie Camera.
≥After usage, store the supplied SD Memory 
Card in the enclosed bag.
≥Do not touch the terminals on the back of the 
Card with your fingers. Do not allow dirt, dust or 
water to enter it.
ª LCD Monitor/Viewfinder/Lens Hood
LCD Monitor
≥In a place with drastic temperature changes, 
condensation may form on the LCD Monitor. 
Wipe it with soft dry cloth.
≥If your Movie Camera is extremely cold when 
you turn its power on, the image on the LCD 
Monitor is slightly darker than usual at first. 
However, as the internal temperature increases, 
it goes back to the normal brightness.
Viewfinder
≥Do not direct the Viewfinder or Lens to the sun. 
Internal components may be seriously 
damaged.
≥When the Movie Camera is used with a large 
capacity Battery (CGA-DU14, CGA-DU21; 
optional) attached to it, it is not practical to look 
in the Viewfinder from behind the Battery.
Lens Hood
≥Do not attach other conversion lenses in front of 
the Lens Hood; there is no mount to be used for 
the attachment.
≥When you wish to attach the Tele Conversion 
Lens (VW-LT2714N2E; optional), Wide 
Conversion Lens (VW-LW2707N2E; optional), 
MC Protector (VW-LMC27E; optional), or ND 
Filter (VW-LND27E; optional), first of all, turn 
the Lens Hood counterclockwise. If the MC 
Protector or ND Filter is used, the Lens Hood 
can be mounted on the filter.
≥If you push the [W/T] Lever toward [W] during 
recording with the filter and conversion lens 
attached together to the Movie Camera, 
4 corners of the image may become dark 
(vignetting). For details, please refer to the 
operating instructions of your accessories.
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.
