Notices and Safety Precautions

Precautions when using the Memory Camcorder

✤ Please note the following precautions for use:

✤ Please keep this device in a safe place. The device contains a lens that can be damaged by shock.

Keep away from the reach of the children.

■

Do not place your device in a wet place. Moisture and water may cause the device to malfunction.

■

To avoid electric shock, do not touch your device or power cable with wet hands.

■

Do not use the flash close to another’s eyes. The flash emits a strong light that may cause damage similar to direct

sunlight on one’s eyesight. Particular care should be observed if photographing infants, when the flash should be no less

than 3 feet from your subject.

If the device is not working properly, please consult your nearest dealer or authorized Samsung service facility.

■

Disassembling the device yourself may cause irrecoverable damage which will be difficult to repair.

Clean the device with a dry, soft cloth. Use a soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent solution for removing stains.

■

Do not use any type of solvent, especially benzene, as it may seriously damage the finish.

Keep your device away from rain and saltwater. After using, clean the device. Saltwater may cause the parts to corrode.

■

To disconnect the apparatus from the mains, the plug must be pulled out from the mains socket, therefore the mains plug

shall be readily operable.

■

Using the earphone or headphone for an extended time can cause a serious damage to your hearing.

If you are exposed to a sound in higher than 85db for an extended time, you will be adversely affected on your

hearing. The higher the sound is, the more seriously damaged your hearing is (an ordinary conversation is made in 50

to 60 db and the noise level on the road is approximately 80 db).

You are strongly advised to set the volume level to medium (the medium level is usually less than 2/3 of the

maximum).

■

If you feel a ringing in the ear(s), lower the volume or stop using the earphone or headphone.

Do not use the earphone while you are driving a bicycle, automobile or motorcycle.

Otherwise it can cause a serious accident and, furthermore, it is prohibited by the law in some areas.

Using the earphone on the way, in particular, on the crosswalk can lead to a serious accident.

■

For your safety, make sure the earphone cable should not get in the way of your arm or other surrounding objects while

you are taking exercise or a walk.

Getting Started

Using a Memory card (SD/MMC) (not supplied)

✤ Samsung is not responsible for data loss due to misuse.

✤ Turning the power off / ejecting the memory card during memory operation such as formatting, deleting, recording, and

playback may damage the data.

✤ You may modify the name of a file / folder stored in the memory card using a PC. The Memory Camcorder may not

recognise modified files.

✤ It is recommended that you power off before inserting or ejecting the memory card to avoid losing data.

✤ It is not guaranteed that you may use a memory card formatted on other devices. Be sure to format your memory card using

the Memory Camcorder.

✤ Save important files separately on other media, such as floppy disk, hard disk, or CD.

✤ You have to format newly-purchased memory cards, memory cards that the Memory Camcorder cannot recognise or the

cards that have data saved by other devices.

✤ A memory card has a certain life span. If you use it for a long time, you may not be able to record new data. In this case,

you have to purchase a new memory card.

✤ Do not bend, drop, or apply a strong impact to the memory card.

✤ Do not use or store in a hot, dusty or humid environment.

✤ Do not allow foreign substances on the memory card terminals. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the terminals if required.

✤ Use a memory card case to avoid losing data from moving and static electricity.

✤ After a period of use, the memory card may get warm. This is normal and not a malfunction.

✤ Damaged data may not be recovered, and SAMSUNG is not responsible for the lost data. Make sure to back up important

files separately on a PC.

✤ miniSD/RS-MMC cards must be inserted in a special card adapter in order to be used.

✤ Be sure to insert miniSD/RS-MMC cards in the dedicated card adapter before use. Inserting a card in the Memory

Camcorder without the adapter may damage the Memory Camcorder or the card.

✤ Do not insert an empty card adapter in the Memory Camcorder. Do not leave the adapter in
