Safety Precautions
Before you use the DV camera, be sure to read the
following safety precautions, which detail the proper
operation of the DV camera and its accessories to
prevent injuries or damage to users or equipment.
Children should not be allowed to have access to
the DV camera. They could injure themselves with
inappropriate use of the DV camera or by becoming
entangled in the carrying strap. If a child swallows a DV
camera battery, get the child medical attention.
This symbol indicates situations where
improper use of the DV camera may result
in harm to the DV camera operator.
Subjecting the DV camera to water or any other
liquid, or allowing condensation to form, may start a fire
or give the user an electrical shock.
This symbol indicates situations where
improper use of the DV camera may result
in damage to the DV camera.
• If liquid gets inside the DV camera, turn the DV
camera power off by removing the battery or
unplugging the power cord (with dry hands).
• Allowing the DV camera to slowly adjust to
temperature changes (as in transferring the unit from
outdoors to indoors) will help to prevent condensation.
Let any condensation evaporate before using the DV
camera.
Exposing the DV camera to too much heat may
warp the DV camera casing or damage the batteries.
Battery damage may result in fire, burns or electrical
shock.
Another source of possible burns is heat from the flash
or DV camera itself.
• Touching the flash after it has been used extensively
can cause burns.
• The DV camera body itself may burn your hands if
the DV camera has been operated for a lengthy
period of time.
6
Do not drop batteries or let them be banged
around. This could damage the casings, causing the
batteries to leak.
Do not leave the DV camera in humid or dusty
areas. Dust and humidity can cause the DV camera to
short circuit, leading to a fire.
•
If the internal parts or components of the battery
come into contact with your eyes or your mouth,
flush the affected site with water and get medical
help.
If the DV camera gets anywhere near a strong
magnetic field, it may not work correctly, or the
pictures taken may be ruined or adversely affected.
Use a soft, absorbent cloth to clean the surface of
your DV camera.
•
Do not short-circuit the battery terminals, and be
sure to cover the terminals before you throw
batteries away. If the terminals contact metal, they
may overheat and explode, causing a fire.
Black or bright (red, green, blue, and white) dots
may sometimes appear on the LCD screen. These are
merely misfiring pixels, and have no effect on the
recorded image.
If you aim the DV camera at the sun, or shoot the
flash close to someone’s eyes, you may injure your
eyesight or that of someone else.
If you see smoke or smell a burning odor coming
from your DV camera, turn the DV camera off. If you
continue to operate the DV camera, it could cause a fire
or give you an electrical shock.
Do not clean the DV camera with flammable liquid,
as these may cause a fire.
