Packing/Unpacking

Inspect the shipping container for evidence of damage immediately after receipt. If

the shipping container or cushioning material is damaged, it should be kept until the

contents of the shipment have been checked for completeness and the unit has

been checked mechanically and electrically.

The shipping container should be placed upright and opened from the top. Remove

the cushioning material and lift out the contents.

The contents of the shipment should be checked against the packing list. If the

contents are incomplete, if there is mechanical damage or defect, or if the unit does

not perform correctly when unpacked, notify your Grass Valley sales or service

centre within eight days.

If the shipping container shows signs of damage or stress, notify the carrier as well.

If the unit is being returned to Grass Valley for servicing, try to use the containers

and materials of the original packaging. Attach a tag indicating the type of service

required, return address, model number, full serial number and the return number

which will be supplied by your Grass Valley service centre.

If the original packing can no longer be used, the following general instructions

should be used for repacking with commercially available materials:

• Wrap unit in heavy paper or plastic.

• Use a strong shipping container.

• Use a layer of shock-absorbing material around all sides of the unit to provide

firm cushioning and prevent movement inside container.

• Seal shipping container securely.

• Mark shipping container FRAGILE to ensure careful handling.

Notes

• The viewfinder's OLED panel is manufactured using high precision technology

that yields a quality of 99.99% or higher. However, it is possible that one or

more pixels may constantly display a single color or be permanently off. This

does not indicate a defective display and the camera's video signals are not

affected.

• Using the viewfinder at low temperatures may result in a decrease of dynamic

resolution and brightness.
