Safety Instructions and Handling Precautions
Battery Pack
• Dirty terminals may cause a poor contact between the battery pack and the camcorder. Wipe the terminals
with a soft cloth.
Long-term storage
• Store battery packs in a dry place at temperatures no higher than 30 °C (86 °F).
• To extend the battery life of the battery pack, discharge it completely before storing it.
• Charge and discharge all your battery packs fully at least once a year.
Remaining battery time
When you are using a battery pack that is compatible with Intelligent System, if the remaining battery time
displayed is not correct, charge the battery pack fully. Still, the correct time may not be displayed if a fully
charged battery pack is used continuously in high temperatures or it is left unused for long periods of time. Also,
the correct remaining time may not be displayed, depending on the battery life. Use the time shown on the
screen as an approximation.
SD Card
• We recommend backing up the recordings on the SD card onto your computer. Data may be corrupted or lost
due to card defects or exposure to static electricity. Canon shall not be liable for lost or corrupted data.
• Do not touch or expose the terminals to dust or dirt.
• Do not use SD cards in places subject to strong magnetic fields.
• Do not leave SD cards in places subject to high humidity and high temperature.
• Do not disassemble, bend, drop, or subject SD cards to shocks and do not expose them to water.
• Check the direction before inserting the SD card. Forcing an SD card into a slot if it is not correctly oriented
may damage the card or the camcorder.
• Do not attach any labels or stickers on the SD card.
Disposal
When you delete clips or initialize an SD card, only the file allocation table is altered and stored data is not
physically erased. When you dispose of an SD card or give either to another person, initialize it using the
[Complete Initialization] option (A 34). Fill it up with unimportant recordings, and then initialize it again using the
same option. This makes recovering the original recordings very difficult.
DANGER!
Treat the battery pack with care.
• Keep it away from fire (or it might explode).
• Do not expose the battery pack to temperature higher than 60 °C (140 °F). Do not leave it near a heater or
inside a car in hot weather.
• Do not try to disassemble or modify it.
• Do not drop it or subject it to shocks.
• Do not get it wet.
