of the strap as

4.Attach the other end of the strap to the other shoulder strap attachment ring.

5.Adjust the shoulder strap to the desired length.

6.Slide both keepers up snugly against the shoulder strap attachment rings to prevent the strap from slipping.

Cautions: When carrying the camcorder with the shoulder strap, you may find it convenient to close the LCD monitor and rotate the viewfinder down. This helps prevent possible damage to the monitor or viewfinder from bump- ing against your body as you move. Make sure the shoulder strap is firmly attached before using it to carry the camcorder.
