Car Battery Cord (P. 9)
• Be sure to start your car engine before
inserting the cigarette lighter plug of the
Car Battery Cord into the lighter socket;
otherwise, the cigarette lighter plug fuse
may burn out.
, Because the car is running while your
Palmcorder is in operation, make sure
you're in a well ventilated area.
•Disconnect the cigarette lighter plug when
your Palmcorder is not being used.
Note:
The Car Battery Cord can only be used in
vehicles equipped with DC 12V (negative
ground) batteries.
Charge the Battery Pack (P. 7)
•The usefuloperationtime ofthe Batterywill
gradually decrease after repeated use
and recharging.
The Battery is no longer serviceable if the
operation time is very short, even after a
sufficient charge.
Special Effects Playback (P. 22)
• During search playback, horizontal noise
bars will appear and there will be no
audio.
•To protect the tape and video heads, your
Palmcorder's operating modes will revert
as follows:
STILL _ STANDBY after 5 minutes.
STANDBY --_ POWER OFF after 5 minutes
when using a Battery Pack.
• When the tape reaches its end during
playback, or fast forward, it will rewind
automatically.
High Speed Shutter (P. 27)
• For proper color reproduction, it is
recommended that you use this feature
outdoors. For indoor High Speed Shutter
recording, additional halogen or tungsten
light should be provided. Fluorescent light
will degrade the picture quality.
•This feature requires ample light. More
light is required _or the fastest shutter
speeds.
•The Auto Focus system may not operate
properly in insufficient light when using
the High Speed Shutter.
Copying your Tapes (P. 31)
• Tapes recorded on other VCRs and used
for playback in the Palmcorder must be
recorded in SP or SLP mode.
• For technical reasons, dubbing a tape
may reduce its quality.
CCD Warning
When your Palmcorder is aimed at
excessively bright objects, such as the sun
or other bright lights, a vertical bar may
appear in the picture. This is a normal
characteristic of the CCD pick-up device.
Try to avoid aiming the camera at
extremely bright objects.
CATV System Installer
This reminder is provided to call the CATV
system installer's attention to Article 820-
40 of the NEC in USA (and to the
Canadian Electrical code in Canada) that
provides guidelines for proper grounding
and, in particular, specifies that the cable
ground shall be connected to the
grounding system of the building, as close
to the point of cable entry as practical.
Auto-Reset
The Palmcorder, provided no tape is
inserted, will reset the Backlight, High
Speed Shutter and Focus to their AUTO or
OFF modes if, after activation, none of
these buttons are pressed within 5
minutes.
