Removing a Cassette
Perform step 1 and then remove the cassette.
Cautions:
• Be careful not to get your fingers caught in the
cassette compartment.
• Do not apply force to the cassette compartment
except for pressing the “PUSH” mark to close it.
• Do not tilt the camcorder or hold it upside down
when you are inserting or removing a cassette. It
may damage the tape.
• Remove the cassette if you will not use the
camcorder for a long time.
• If you do not press the cassette holder closed
correctly in step 3, the camcorder’s cassette
protection mechanism might eject the cassette.
If this happens, repeat the insertion procedure.
• Do not attempt to pick up the camcorder by the
cassette compartment door.
• If the compartment door does not close when
gently pressed into position, check the
compartment door release. The door release
may not be completely opened as shown below
on the left. In this case, slide the door release in
the direction of the arrow and press the
compartment door closed.
• If the battery power is too low, you may not be
able to eject the cassette or operate the Power
switch. Replace the battery pack with a fully
charged one.
• If the tape cassette is loaded when dew has
formed, the camcorder’s cassette protection
mechanism might eject the cassette (see page
63). Check that the cassette holder has retracted
completely before closing the cassette
compartment door.
