• If the cover of disc insertion block is open, the
ACCESS/PC indicator will blink when an image is
displayed on the LCD monitor screen: In this case,
the DVD video camera/recorder will not turn off even if
the power switch is set to “OFF”.
If the cover remains open after a while, the DVD video
camera/recorder will automatically turn off.
• Disc cannot be inserted or removed unless a charged
battery or AC adapter/charger is connected to the
DVD video camera/recorder.
• If a discharged battery is used, the disc cannot be
inserted or removed: Connect a charged battery or
AC adapter/charger to the DVD video camera/
recorder.
• If there is some delay before recording starts, refer to
“Check 4” on page 155.
• If the disc is not correctly attached to the turntable, it
will be difficult to close the cover: If this happens, do
not forcibly close the cover (this could cause a fault),
but re-attach the disc to the turntable correctly.
• If a single-sided disc is inserted into DVD video
camera/recorder with the printed label facing the
inside, an error message will appear. Remove the
disc and reinsert it with its recording side facing the
inside. See “Trouble Messages” on page 157.
• When using double-sided disc
Recording is possible on both sides of double-sided
disc. However, when recording or playback on one
side is finished, recording or playback will not move
automatically to the other side. Remove the disc once
from the DVD video camera/recorder, turn over the
disc and insert it again for continued use.
The recording surfaces of double-sided disc are likely
to become dirtied or scratched: Always make sure
that there is no dirt or scratch on the recording
surface facing the pickup lens, and then use the disc
taking great care that it is not dirtied or scratched.
Use the provided disc cleaning cloth to wipe off any
dirt on disc (see page 29).
