Troubleshooting (Continued)
The picture in the viewfinder is not clear.
Move the viewfinder lens adjustment lever until the picture appears clearly (p. 17).
The picture in the viewfinder has disappeared.
• If you change [VF POWERMODE] to [AUTO], the finder light remains off while the LCD
panel is open (p. 81).
The supplied Remote Commander does not function.
• Set [REMOTE CTRL] to [ON] (p. 92).
Remove any obstructions between the Remote Commander and the remote sensor.
• Keep strong light sources, such as sunlight or overhead lighting, away from the remote
sensor, otherwise the Remote Commander may not function properly.
Insert a fresh battery in the compartment with its +/– terminals matching those of the
compartment (p. 135).
Another VCR malfunctions when you use the supplied Remote Commander.
Select a commander mode other than VTR 2 for your VCR.
Cover the sensor of your VCR with black paper.
The cassette cannot be ejected from the compartment.
• Make sure the power source (battery pack or AC Adaptor/Charger) is connected correctly
(p. 12).
Moisture condensation has occurred inside the camcorder (p. 123).
The Cassette Memory indicator or title display does not appear while using a
cassette with the Cassette Memory function.
This camcorder does not support the Cassette Memory function, so the indicator does not
appear.
The remaining tape indicator is not displayed.
Set [ REMAINING] to [ON] to always display the remaining tape indicator (p. 82).
The cassette is noisier during rewinding or fast-forwarding.
When using the DK-415 cable rewind/fast forward speed increases (compared with battery
operation) and therefore increases noise. This is not a malfunction.
You cannot delete pictures on a “Memory Stick Duo.”
The pictures are protected. Release the protect function on your computer, etc.
