Symptom Check Point & Correction
TAPE appears in the viewfinder. § Have you moved the camcorder or
cassette from a cold place to a warm
place so that its temperature
changed abruptly? If the temperature
has changed, remove the cassette
and set the CAM/OFF/VIDEO switch
to OFF, then wait for about one hour.
Remove the cassette and then try to
reinsert: remove it several times. If
the indication is still shown in the
viewfinder, use a cleaning tape to
clean the heads and replace the
cassette.
