ITEMS NOTES
V Power (੬ pg. 10) ● Perform charging where the temperature is between 10°C and 35°C (50°F and
95°F). 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F) is the ideal temperature range for charging. If
the environment is too cold, charging may be incomplete.
● Charging times are for a fully discharged battery pack.
● Charging time varies according to the ambient temperature and the status of the
battery pack.
● To avoid interference with reception, do not use the AC Adapter near a radio.
● Since the AC Adapter processes electricity internally, it becomes warm during use.
Be sure to use it only in well-ventilated areas.
● The following operation stops charging:
•Set the Power Switch to “PLAY”, “A” or “M”.
•Disconnect the AC Adapter from the camcorder.
•Unplug the AC Adapter from the AC outlet.
•Detach the battery from the camcorder.
V VIDEO
RECORDING
(੬ pg. 17)
● When you use the LCD monitor outdoors in direct sunlight, the LCD monitor may
be difficult to see. If this happens, use the viewfinder instead.
● The cassette holder cannot be opened unless a power supply is attached.
● There may be a delay after you open the cassette holder cover until the cassette
holder opens. Do not use force.
● Once the cassette holder is closed, it recedes automatically. Wait until it recedes
completely before closing the cassette holder cover.
● When the Recording Start/Stop button is pressed, it may take a few seconds before
actual recording starts. The “T” indicator starts rotating when the camcorder
actually starts recording.
● The time required to calculate and display the remaining tape length, and the
accuracy of the calculation, may vary according to the type of tape used.
● “TAPE END” appears when the tape reaches its end, and the power goes off
automatically if left in this condition for 5 minutes. “TAPE END” also appears
when a cassette at its end is loaded.
● During recording, sound is not heard from the speaker. To hear the sound, connect
optional headphones to the headphone connector. Adjust the sound volume by
rotating the MENU Wheel. (੬ pg. 20)
