When condensation is detected inside the camcorder, warning indicator (A) flashes in the viewfinder, and a second indicator (B) may flash on the cassette.
Install the battery pack on the AC adaptor/charger, plug the adaptor into an AC outlet, and the CHARGE indicator lights while the pack recharges automatically.
Eject the cassette and let the camcorder sit for 1–2 hours to dry; you can also wrap it in a cloth until fogging disappears.
