IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
In addition to the careful attention devoted to quality standards in the manufacture of your video product, safety is a major factor in the
design of every instrument. But, safety is your responsibility too.
This page lists important information that will help to assure your enjoyment and proper use of DVD video camera/recorder and accessory
equipment. Please read it carefully before operating your video product and keep it in a handy place for future reference.
INSTALLATION
1
Read and Follow Instructions -- All the safety and op-
erating instructions should be read before the video product is
operated. Follow all operating and use instructions.
2
Retain Instructions -- The safety and operating instruc-
tions should be retained for future reference.
3
Heed Warnings -- Comply with all warnings on the video
product and in the operating instructions.
4
Polarized Plug -- This video product is equipped with a
polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). This plug will fit into the mains outlet
only one way. This is safety feature. If you are unable to insert
the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug
should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. To prevent electric shock do not use this po-
larized plug with an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet
unless the blades can be fully inserted without blade exposure.
If you need an extension, use a polarized cord.
5
Power Sources -- This video product should be operated
only from the type of power source indicated on the marking
label. If you are not sure of the type of mains supply to your
home, consult your video dealer or local power company. For
video products intended to operate from battery power, or other
sources, refer to the operating instructions.
6
Overloading -- Do not overload wall outlets and extension
cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Over-
loaded AC outlets and extension cords are dangerous, and so
are frayed mains cables, damaged or cracked wire insulation
and broken plugs. They may result in a shock or fire hazard.
Periodically examine the cord and have it replaced by your
service technician if appearance indicates damage or deterio-
rated insulation.
7
Mains-Lead Protection -- Mains leads should be routed
so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items
placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords
at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they
exit from the appliance.
8
Ventilation -- Slots and openings in the cabinet are pro-
vided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the video
product and to protect it from overheating. These openings
must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never
be blocked by placing the video product on a bed, sofa, rug, or
other similar surface. This video product should never be placed
near or over a radiator or heat register. This video product
should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a book-
case or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the video
product manufacturer's instructions have been followed.

13 Power Lines -- An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric
light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power
lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system,
extreme care should be taken to keep from touching or ap-
proaching such power lines or circuits as contact with them
might be fatal. Installing an outdoor aerial can be hazardous
and should be left to a professional aerial installer.

14 Cleaning -- Unplug this video product from the wall outlet
before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol clean-
ers. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

kind into this video product through openings as they may
touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could
result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind
on the video product.
16 Lightning -- For added protection for this video product
during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and un-
used for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet
and disconnect the aerial or cable-system. This will prevent
damage to the video product due to lightning and power-line
surges.
9
Attachments -- Do not use attachments unless recom-
mended by the video product manufacturer as they may cause
hazards.
Caution: Maintain electrical safety. Mains operated equipment or
accessories connected to this unit should bear the UL listing mark
or CSA certification mark on the accessory itself and should not
have been modified so as to defeat the safety features. This will
help avoid any potential hazard from electric shock or fire. If in
doubt, contact qualified service personnel.
