If malfunction persists even after pressing the Reset button, consult the nearest JVC service center.

Caution :

The built-in battery is not charged at the time of purchase.

At the time of purchase or in case of the battery is not used for a long period of time, the charging time will be longer than usual. The camera does not turn on if the remaining battery power is low. In this case, charge the battery for more than 40 minutes before turning on the power.

Charging time: Approx. 6 h 10 m (when charging at 25°C (77°F))

The battery cannot be charged outside the room temperature range of 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F). The CHARGE lamp does not light up when the battery is not being charged. If the temperature increases or decreases during charging, the CHARGE lamp will blink slowly and charging will stop. In this case, remove the AC adapter, press the Reset button and wait until the room temperature is within the above stated range before charging again.

You can record or play back videos during charging. (However, the charging time will be longer than usual. In addition, the remaining battery power may decrease according to conditions.) If the internal temperature rises when using the unit, stop the charging temporarily. (The CHARGE lamp goes off.)

If malfunctions (such as overvoltage) occur, charging will stop. In these cases, CHARGE lamp blinks quickly as a notification.

During charging, the P icon on the screen changes to O to indicate that charging is in progress. (when the provided AC adapter is used)

When the recording time becomes extremely short even when the battery is fully charged, the battery needs to be replaced. For details on replacing the built-in battery (subject to a fee), consult the nearest JVC service center.

Caution :

There are certain specifications for a USB rechargeable device. To charge, use a device with the output voltage of 5 V/1 A or more.

Depending on and length of an USB cable used to connect to this unit, the charging time may be longer than usual, or it may not even start.

no guarantee that there will be no damages when the unit is used

There is within the above-mentioned limits. Scratches and dent caused by the impact if the unit is dropped, or other changes in appearance are not included in the warranty.

Malfunction due to mishandling will void the warranty. Before use in water, be sure to read and understand the “Before Using

Underwater or under Low Temperature” (A p. 6) .

Close the terminal cover firmly until it clicks and confirm that the red sign completely goes off.

Make sure that there is no damage to and no foreign material adhered to the packing inside the cover.

Use within a water depth of 5 m (16.4 ft) and a duration of 1 hour. The waterproof performance cannot be guaranteed if the camcorder is

subject to impact such as dropping. Do not jump or dive into water holding the camcorder. Do not use the camcorder in strong water flows such as in rapids or under

waterfalls. The strong water pressure may impair the waterproof performance.

Do not immerse into hot spring, or hot water above 40°C (104°F).

Dust-proof: Equivalent to IEC Standard publication 529 IP5X

Freeze-proof: Allowable operating temperatures: −10°C to +40°C (14°F to 104°F) Note: Temperatures between −10°C and 0°C (14°F and 32°F) temporarily lower battery performance, reducing the time available for

recording.

Before Using Underwater or under Low Temperature

“Cautions on Using Underwater” (A p. 6) “Maintenance after Use” (A p. 7) “Cautions on Using under Low Temperature” (A p. 7)

Cautions on Using Underwater

Please take note of the followings when using this unit near water or underwater.

Ensure that the cover is closed tightly.

“Opening the Terminal Cover (SD Card Cover)” (A p.

Ensure that the terminal cover and the gray waterproof seal are not damaged or dust) adhered on the cover.

Stop using the unit underwater if there are damages to the cover, etc. and consult your JVC dealer or the nearest service center.

Use within a water depth of 5 m (16.4 ft) and a duration of 1 hour.

Do not open/close the cover or insert/remove an SD card or any cables while using underwater or on the beach, or if your hands contain water droplets or sands. Doing so may cause water to enter into the camera or malfunction.

Do not current, waterfall or diving into water.

The waterproof performance is not guaranteed if the camera is dropped or subjected to other impact shock. If the camera has been subjected to impact shock, consult your nearest service center.

While shooting underwater, noise generated inside of the camera (zooming sounds, etc) may be picked up. This is not a malfunction.

Do not immerse into hot spring, or hot water above 40°C (104°F). Doing so deteriorates waterproof performance.

Keep away from hands with sun oil or sun screen. Doing so may cause discoloration or deterioration of material.

The accessories are not waterproof.

Do not use the lens filter or conversion lens underwater or at locations where there is water.

Rinse with clean water.

Soak the camera completely, and rinse it gently.

Dry the camera.

Wipe the well-ventilated and shady location.

* If you leave the camera immersed in salt water or allow water droplets from

the salt water to remain on the camera, this may cause corrosion, discoloration or deterioration of waterproof performance.

* If you wipe or dry the camera with sand particles adhered, this may cause

scratches on the camera. * Do not wash with chemicals, soap, neutral detergents, or alcohol. * Do not dry the camera with a hair dryer or other heat sources. This could

impair its waterproof performance.

Wipe off any foreign materials or water droplets inside the cover.

Other Precautions

0 0

leave the camera under low temperature in cold climates or under

Do not high temperature above 40 °C (such as under direct sunlight, inside a vehicle in the hot sun, or near a heater). This will cause deterioration of the waterproof performance.

Malfunction due to mishandling will void the warranty. We are not responsible for any loss of data due to water entering into inside

of the camera. Please be forewarned. It is recommended to replace the waterproof packing once a year to

maintain the waterproof performance. Consult your nearest service center. (Subject to a fee)

Cautions on Using under Low Temperature

The performance is -10°C to 0°C (14°F to 32°F), this will cause the remaining recording time to shorten.

Charging cannot be performed when the surrounding temperature is below 10°C (50°F).

Turning on the camera while it is still cold will deteriorate the performance of the LCD monitor. Problems such as the screen becoming dark momentarily or residual image can occur.

If snow or water droplets adhere to the camera under sub-zero temperature environment, ice can formed between the gaps around the buttons, speaker or microphone. This will cause difficulty in operating the buttons as well as decrease in the volume level.

Direct contact with exposed metal part under cold temperature can cause the skin to stick on the metal part resulting in injuries such as frostbite. Do not touch with bare hands.
