Concerning the Power Supply
When the Camcorder has been used for a long time,
the Camera body becomes warm, but this is not a
malfunction.
If the [CHARGE] Lamp does not light up although
the Battery is attached to the AC Adaptor, detach the
Battery and reattach it.
Inserting/Removing the Cassette
In the case of using a previously recorded Cassette,
you can use the Blank Search Function (p. 24) to nd
the position where you want to continue recording.
If a new Cassette is inserted, rewind to the beginning
of the tape before starting recording.
When inserting the cassette, make sure it faces in
the right direction and then push it in until it stops.
When the Cassette Holder is in action, do not touch
anything except the [PUSH] mark.
When closing the Cassette Compartment Cover,
do not get anything caught in the cover, such as
a cable of an optional stereo microphone (For
PV-GS14/PV-GS15).
