b Notes
• If you do not use your camcorder for about 3
months, the built-in rechargeable battery gets
discharged and the date and time settings may
be cleared from the memory. In that case,
charge the built-in rechargeable battery and then
set the date and time again (p. 118).
• It takes a few seconds for your camcorder to be
ready to shoot after the power is turned on. You
cannot operate your camcorder during this time.
• The lens cover opens automatically when the
power is turned on. It closes when the playback
screen is selected, or the power is turned off.
• In the default setting, the power turns off
automatically if you leave your camcorder
unoperated for approximately 5 minutes, to save
battery power ([A.SHUT OFF], p. 83).
z Tips
• The date and time does not appear during
recording, but they are automatically recorded
on the media, and can be displayed during
playback ([DATA CODE], p. 78).
• See page 110 for information concerning
“World time difference.”
• If the buttons on the touch panel do not work
correctly, adjust the touch panel
([CALIBRATION], p. 117).
