Notes regarding the Video Head Cleaning
To ensure normal recording and a clear picture, clean the video heads regularly. If a square block-shape distorts playback, or only a blue screen is displayed, the video heads may be dirty. If this happens, clean the video heads with a dry type cleaning cassette. Do not use a wet-type cleaning cassette. It may damage the video heads.
Notes regarding Camcorder
Do not leave the Camcorder exposed to high temperatures (above 60 C or 140 F). For example, in a parked car in the sun or exposed to direct sunlight. Do not let the Camcorder get wet. Keep the Camcorder away from rain, sea water, and any other form of moisture. If the Camcorder gets wet, it may get damaged. Sometimes a malfunction due to exposure to liquids cannot be repaired. A sudden rise in atmospheric temperature may cause condensation to form inside the Camcorder. - When you move the Camcorder from a cold location to a warm location (e.g. from outside to inside during the winter.) - When you move the Camcorder from a cool location to a hot location (e.g. from inside to outside during the summer.) If the (DEW) protection feature is activated, leave the Camcorder for at least two hours in a dry, warm room with the cassette compartment opened and the Battery Pack removed.

SB-LSM80 The continuous recording times given in the table 1hr 20min 1hr 30min 1hr 20min to the right are approximations. SB-LSM160 Approx. Approx. Approx. Actual recording time depends on usage. 2hr 40min 3hr (Option) 3hr The continuous recording times in the operating instructions are measured using a fully charged Battery Pack at 77 F (25 C). Even when the Power switched Off, the Battery Pack will still discharge if it is left attached to the device.
The amount of continuous recording time available depends on; - The type and capacity of the Battery Pack you are using. - Ambient temperature. - How often the Zoom function is used. - Type of use (Camcorder/Camera/With LCD Screen etc.). It is recommended that you have several batteries available.

Battery Level Display

The battery level display indicates the amount of power remaining in the Battery Pack. a. Fully charged b. 20~40% used c. 40~80% used d. 80~95% used e. Completely used (Blinking) (The Camcorder will turn off soon, change the battery as soon as possible.)

Battery Pack Management
The Battery Pack should be recharged in an environment between 32 F (0 C) and 104 F (40 C). The life and capacity of the Battery Pack will be reduced if it is used in temperatures below 32 F (0 C) or left in temperatures above 104 F (40 C) for a long period of time, even when it is fully recharged. Do not put the Battery Pack near any heat source (i.e. fire or a heater). Do not disassemble, apply pressure to or heat the Battery Pack. Do not allow the + and terminals of the Battery Pack to be short-circuited. It may cause leakage, heat generation, induce overheating or fire.
