Also, be sure to use the provided AC Adapter, as the memory
card may be corrupted if the battery becomes exhausted
during deletion. If the memory card becomes corrupted,
initialise it.
NOTES:
● Be sure to always use the same tape and memory card
together as they were during recording; otherwise, the
camcorder cannot recognise Tape and Memory Card IDs to
perform Navigation Function properly.
● Check if an appropriate tape and memory card are loaded
when the following messages appear: “NO ID ON TAPE
OR CARD”, “UNABLE TO USE NAVIGATION”, “THIS
MEMORY CARD IS NOT COMPATIBLE”.
● If you change the memory card while shooting on one tape,
two memory cards will share the tape’s thumbnail images.
We recommend that you use one memory card for one
tape.
● Navigation Search does not work if the current position is at
a blank portion on the tape. Also, do not leave a blank
portion partway through the tape when shooting; otherwise,
Navigation Function does not work properly.
● Before shooting newly over a recorded tape, be sure to
delete all thumbnail images of the previous recording from
the relevant memory card.
● If you copy thumbnail images from one memory card to
another via a PC, Navigation Search does not work with the
copied memory card.
