Loading a Cassette
1. Make sure that you have attached a power source.
2. Slide the OPEN/EJECT 5 switch (on the bottom of the
camcorder) to release the cassette compartment cover.
• Pull the cover fully open (while holding the button) and wait a couple of
seconds for the cassette compartment to open automatically.
• The confirmation beep sounds when the cassette cover fully opens.
3. Load or unload the cassette.
• Insert the cassette gently with the window facing the grip belt, and the
REC/SAVE tab up.
• Remove the cassette by pulling it straight out.
4. Press the P mark on the compartment until it clicks, and
wait for the compartment to close.
5. Click the cover back into place.
* D is a trade mark.
Notes:
• Do not interfere with the cassette compartment while it is opening or
closing automatically, and do not attempt to close the cover until the
cassette compartment has fully retracted.
• Be careful not to get your fingers caught in the cassette compartment cover.
• Do not leave the cassette in the camcorder after use — return it to its case
and store it in a cool, clean, dry place.
• When you turn the camcorder’s power on, v flashes in the display until
you load a cassette.
• With some types of tapes, the remaining tape display may not give an
accurate reading ( 172).
