Precautions
Video Cassette Tapes
Use only those tapes with the q mark.
This unit is designed to operate with MP
tapes, so playing back ME tapes will result
in “noisy” pictures. Use MP-type tapes
whenever possible.
To protect recordings from erasure
When a previously recorded cassette is used again
for recording, the previously recorded material is
erased. To protect a recording from accidental
erasure, slide the tab on the cassette to cover the
hole. (A red mark will be exposed.)
To record, slide the tab to open the hole.
I-
Do not store or place your video tapes in direct
sunlight, near heaters, or in places with excessive
moisture or dust.
Do not keep video tapes near magnetic objects.
They may erase the recording.
Do not drop or subject the tapes to excessive shocks
Uneven tape winding will damage the tape. If the
tape is not properly wound, reinsert it in the
VIEWCAM and rewind the tape.
Store the cassettes in their cases and stand them
on edge.
Care
Do not insert anything into the erasure-protection
hole in the cassette.
Do not put anything into the holes on the bottom of
the cassette.
Cleaning and maintenance
l Many plastic parts are used in the VIEWCAM
casing. Do not use thinners, benzenes or other
strong chemical cleaners. These may cause
discolouration and damage to the casing.
l Clean the casing with a soft, dry cloth. If the casing
is particularly dirty, wipe it with a tightly wrung cloth
dampened with a diluted, neutral detergent. Then
wipe it again with a soft, dry cloth.
l Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe finger marks and other
soiling off the LCD monitor screen.
l If the lens needs cleaning, first remove the lens
cap and then clean the lens with a soft, dry cloth,
or compressed air and lens papers designed for
photographic lenses.

Television system signals and electrical system
voltages and frequencies vary substantially from

sections below before using the AC adapter or
connecting the VIEWCAM to a TV.
The supplied AC adapter is compatible with 50 Hz
and 60 Hz electrical systems in the range of 110 V to

negative-ground cars only. Do not use it with
positive-ground cars.
In any country, you can always watch the video
picture by using the LCD monitor screen. However, if
