Serious malfunctioning
About moisture condensation
● You have observed that pouring a cold liquid
into a glass will cause drops of water to form
on the glass’ outer surface. This same
phenomenon occurs on the head drum of a
camcorder when it is moved from a cool
place to a warm place, after heating a cold
room, under extremely humid conditions or in
a place directly subjected to the cool air from
an air conditioner.
● Moisture on the head drum can cause
severe damage to the video tape, and can
lead to internal damage to the camcorder
itself.
If malfunctioning occurs, stop using the unit
immediately and consult your local JVC
dealer.
The camcorder is a microcomputer-
controlled device. External noise and
interference (from a TV, a radio, etc.) might
prevent it from functioning properly. In such
cases, first disconnect its power supply unit
(battery pack, AC Adapter, etc.) and wait a
few minutes and then re-connect it and
proceed as usual from the beginning.
CONDENSATION, OPERATION
PAUSED PLEASE WAIT
Appears if condensation occurs. When this
indication is displayed, wait more than 1
hour until condensation disappears.
Before cleaning, turn off the camcorder and
remove the battery pack and AC Adapter.
To clean the exterior
Wipe gently with a soft cloth. Put the cloth in
diluted mild soap and wring it well to wipe off
heavy dirt. Then wipe again with a dry cloth.
To clean the LCD monitor
Wipe gently with a soft cloth. Be careful not to
damage the monitor. Close the LCD monitor.
To clean the lens
Blow it with a blower brush, then wipe gently
with lens cleaning paper.
NOTES:
● Avoid using strong cleaning agents such as
benzine or alcohol.
● Cleaning should be done only after the battery
pack has been removed or other power units
have been disconnected.
● Mould may form if the lens is left dirty.
● When using a cleaner or chemically treated
cloth refer to the cautions of each product.
