Panasonic PV-GS29 用户指南

„

•  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 
3 feet (1 meter) or more away from radio.

•  When using the AC Adaptor, it may generate 

whirring sounds. However, this is normal.

•  After use, be sure to pull out the AC Cable from 

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

•  Always keep the electrodes of the AC Adaptor and 

Battery clean.

If you turn the Camcorder on when condensation 
occurs on the head or the tape, Condensation 
Indication [ 

 ] is displayed on the Viewfinder 

or the LCD Monitor and the messages [

DEW 

DETECT] or [

EJECT TAPE] (only when the tape 

is inserted) appear. In this case, follow the procedure 
below.

•  It takes about 20 seconds to open the Cassette 

Holder. This is not a malfunction.

Especially in cold conditions, dew may be frozen. 
In this case, it may take more time before the 
condensation indication disappears.

•  The condensation indication may not appear 

depending on circumstances. When condensation 
occurs on the lens or the Camcorder, it also may 
occur on the head and the tape. Do not open the 
Cassette Compartment Cover.

Set the [OFF/ON] Switch to [OFF] and leave the 
Camcorder in this condition for about 1 hour. When 
the lens temperature becomes close to the ambient 
temperature, the fog disappears naturally.

If the heads (the parts that make contact with the 
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 Camcorder cannot record at all.

•  Large quantity of dust in the air
•  High-temperature and high-humidity environment
• Damaged tape
•  Long operating hours

•  The One-Touch Navigation icon is 

displayed on the lower right of the 
screen.

•  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 Camcorder needs to be cleaned at a 
Servicenter. Please consult a dealer.

•  Head cleaning due to dirty heads is not considered 

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

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.)
