correctly.
The following procedure can also be used to correct the date and time you have already set.

d/c buttons to choose “Date Set” on the
“Date Setup” menu screen.

button to select the digit to be set. If you press the
A button after selecting the figure for the month,
the screen for verifying the set date will appear
instead of screen for setting day, year or time.

video camera/recorder will enter the
recording pause status.

CHANGING DISPLAY FORMAT OF DATE AND TIME
You can select one of three date display formats: month/day/year, day/month/year or year/
month/day. Choose “Date Mode” on the “Date Setup” menu screen in procedure 1, and then set to
the desired date display mode.
Note:
This DVD video camera/recorder incorporates a rechargeable battery to store the date and time in memory. If this
built-in battery is exhausted, the date and time will be reset. To prevent this, every 6 months, connect the AC
adapter/charger to DVD video camera/recorder and connect them to AC outlet, or attach a charged battery to the
DVD video camera/recorder, and leave it for at least 24 hours with the DVD video camera/recorder turned off: The
built-in battery will recharge.
