General Battery Precautions
• When the C-P6U or C-P7U (cassette adapter) is
not functioning even when correctly operated, the
batteries are exhausted. Replace them with fresh
ones.
• Use only the following batteries:
C-P6U or C-P7U .................... R6 (AA) size
Please make note of the following rules for battery
use. When misused, batteries can leak or explode.
1. Refer to the instructions when replacing the
battery.
2. Do not expose batteries to excessive heat as they
can leak or explode.
3. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
4. Remove the battery from the unit if it is to be
stored for an extended period to avoid battery
leakage which can cause malfunctions.
Battery Packs
The supplied battery pack is a nickel-
cadmium battery. Before using the
supplied battery pack or an optional
battery pack, be sure to read the
following cautions:
1. To avoid hazard . . .
.... do not burn.
.... do not short-circuit the terminals.
.... do not modify or disassemble.
.... use only specified chargers.
2. To prevent damage and prolong service
life . . .
.... do not subject to unnecessary shock.
.... avoid repeated charging without fully
discharging.
.... charge in an environment where
temperatures are within the tolerances shown
in the chart below. This is a chemical
reaction type battery—cooler temperatures
impede chemical reaction, while warmer
temperatures can prevent complete charging.
.... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure
to high temperatures will increase natural
discharge and shorten service life.
.... avoid prolonged uncharged storage.
.... remove from charger or powered unit when
not in use, as some machines use current
even when switched off.
3. To prevent damage to the camcorder . . .
.... replace the battery pack when it begins to
deliver less recording time per charge.
CAUTIONS
NOTE:
It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after
charging, or after use.
Temperature Ranges
Charging ................................... 10°C to 35°C
Operation ................................. 0°C to 40°C
Storage ...................................... –10°C to 30°C
NOTES:
● Recharging time is based on room temperature of
20°C.
● The lower the temperature, the longer recharging
takes.
Cassettes
To properly use and store your cassettes, be sure to
read the following cautions:
1. During use . . .
.... make sure the cassette bears the S-VHS-C or
VHS-C mark.
.... be aware that recording onto prerecorded
tapes automatically erases the previously
recorded video and audio signals.
.... make sure the cassette is positioned properly
when inserting.
.... do not load and unload the cassette
repeatedly without allowing the tape to run
at all. This slackens the tape and can result in
damage.
.... do not open the front tape cover. This
exposes the tape to fingerprints and dust.
2. Store cassettes . . .
.... away from heaters or other heat sources.
.... out of direct sunlight.
.... where they won’t be subject to unnecessary
shock or vibration.
.... where they won’t be exposed to strong
magnetic fields (such as those generated by
motors, transformers or magnets).
.... vertically, in their original cases.
