SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Dear Customer,
Thank you for purchasing this digital media camera. Before
use, please read the safety information and precautions
contained in the pages 3 – 4 to ensure safe use of this product.
WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD,
DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
CAUTIONS:
● If you notice smoke or a peculiar smell coming from the
camcorder or AC Adapter, shut it down and unplug it
immediately. Continue using the camcorder or AC
Adapter under these conditions could lead to fire or
electric shock. Contact your JVC dealer. Do not attempt
to repair the malfunction yourself.
● To prevent shock, do not open the cabinet. No user
serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified
personnel.
● When you are not using the AC adapter for a long period
of time, it is recommended that you disconnect the power
cord from AC outlet.
● In certain areas, use the conversion plug depending on
the type of your AC wall outlet.
CAUTION:
To avoid electric shock or
damage to the unit, first
firmly insert the small end
of the power cord into the
AC Adapter until it is no
longer wobbly, and then
plug the larger end of the
power cord into an AC
outlet.
CAUTIONS:
● This camera is designed to be used with PAL-type color
television signals. It cannot be used for playback with a
television of a different standard. However, live recording
and LCD monitor playback are possible anywhere.
● Use the JVC BN-VM200U battery pack and, to recharge
it or to supply power to the camera from an AC outlet, use
the provided multi-voltage AC adapter. (An appropriate
conversion adapter may be necessary to accommodate
different designs of AC outlets in different countries.)
NOTES:
● The rating plate (serial number plate) and safety caution
are on the battery pack mount of the main unit.
● The rating information and safety caution of the AC
adapter are on its upper and lower sides.
Do not point the lens directly into the sun. This can cause
eye injuries, as well as lead to the malfunctioning of internal
circuitry. There is also a risk of fire or electric shock.
CAUTION!
The following notes concern possible physical damage to
the camera and to the user.
Carrying or holding the camera by the LCD monitor can
result in dropping the unit, or in a malfunction.
Do not use a tripod on unsteady or unlevel surfaces. It could
tip over, causing serious damage to the camera.
CAUTION!
Connecting cables (Audio/Video, S-Video, etc.) to the
camera and leaving it on top of the TV is not recommended,
as tripping on the cables will cause the camera to fall,
resulting in damage.
