Panasonic nv-mx2b Manual De Usuario

≥The camera body may be deformed and the surface finish 

may peel off.

≥Before cleaning, detach the Battery or pull out the AC 

Mains Lead from the AC mains socket.

≥Wipe the Movie Camera with a soft dry cloth. To remove 

stubborn stains, wipe with a cloth that is soaked in a 
detergent diluted with water and afterward finish wiping 
with a dry cloth.

≥For storing or transporting the Movie Camera, place it in a 

bag or case lined with soft pads so as to prevent the 
coating on the camera body from being worn.

After use, be sure to take the Cassette out and detach 
the Battery from the Movie Camera or pull out the AC 
Mains Lead from AC mains socket.
≥If the Cassette is left in the Movie Camera, the tape sags 

and deteriorates.

≥If the Battery is left on the Movie Camera for a long time, 

the voltage drops excessively, and the Battery will not 
function even after it is recharged.

ª About AC Adaptor

≥If the temperature of the Battery is extremely high or 

extremely low, the [CHARGE] Lamp may continue flashing, 
and the Battery may not be charged. After the temperature 
of the Battery has decreased or increased sufficiently, 
charging starts automatically. If the [CHARGE] Lamp 
continues to flash even after the Battery temperature has 
decreased or increased sufficiently, the Battery or AC 
Adaptor may be faulty. In this case, please contact a 
dealer.

≥If the Battery is warm, charging takes a longer time than 

normal.

≥If you use the AC Adaptor near a radio, radio reception 

may be disturbed. Keep the AC Adaptor 1 metre or more 
away from radio.

≥When the AC Adaptor is in use, it may generate whirring 

sounds. However, this is normal.

≥After use, be sure to pull out the AC Mains Lead from the 

AC mains socket. (If they are left connected, a minute 
amount of current is consumed.)

≥Keep the electrodes of the AC Adaptor and Battery always 

clean.

ª Condensation

If the Condensation Indication flashes after the Movie 
Camera is turned on, condensation has formed inside the 
Movie Camera. In this case, the Movie Camera power is 
turned off automatically after about 1 minute.
Follow the steps below:

≥None of the other functions operate. Depending on the 

amount of condensation, removing the Cassette may 
even become difficult. If this happens, wait for 
2 to 3 hours before taking the Cassette out.

≥The number of hours to wait depends on the amount of 

condensation and ambient temperature.

≥Even if the Condensation Indication is not displayed, 

as a precaution, please wait for another hour before 
using the Movie Camera.

Watch for Condensation even before the Condensation 
Indication is displayed.
≥Because condensation takes place gradually, the 

Condensation Indication may not be displayed during the 

first 10 to 15 minutes of condensation formation inside the 
Movie Camera.

≥In extremely cold places, condensation may freeze and 

form frost. In this case, the frost melts first, thus forming 
condensation, and then it takes another 2 to 3 hours to 
eliminate the condensation.

When the Lens is Fogged:
Set the [OFF/ON/MODE] Switch to [OFF] and leave the 
Movie Camera in this condition for about 1 hour. When the 
lens temperature becomes close to the ambient 
temperature, the fog disappears naturally.

ª Video Head Clogging and Care

If the heads (the parts that make contact with tape) are dirty, 
mosaic-pattern noise may appear on the playback image, or 
the screen as a whole becomes black. If the heads are 
extremely dirty, recording performance deteriorates, and, in 
the worst case, the Movie Camera cannot record at all.
Causes of Dirty Heads
≥Large quantity of dust in the air
≥High-temperature and high-humidity environment
≥Damaged tape
≥Long operating hours
Using Mini-DV Format Digital Video Head Cleaner

Notes:
≥Do not rewind every time you use the Head Cleaner. 

Rewind only when the tape reaches the end, and then use 
it again from the beginning in the same manner as before.

≥If the heads become dirty soon after cleaning, the tape may 

be damaged. In this case, immediately stop using that 
Cassette.

≥Do not clean the heads excessively. (Excessive cleaning 

may cause excessive wear of the heads. If the heads are 
worn, images cannot be played back even after the heads 
are cleaned.)

≥If the dirty heads cannot be cleaned with the Head Cleaner, 

the Movie Camera needs to be cleaned at a service centre. 
Please consult a dealer.

≥Video Head Cleaners can be purchased from service 

centres.

≥Head cleaning due to dirty heads is not considered a 

malfunction of the product. It is not covered by the 
warranty.

Periodical Check-up
To maintain the highest image quality, we recommend 
replacement of worn parts, such as heads, etc., after 
approximately 1000 hours of use. (This, however, depends 
on operating conditions, such as temperature, humidity, 
dust, etc.)
