●To turn on the LCD backlight, press LCD BACKLIGHT again.
Tripod Mounting
To attach the camcorder to a tripod, align the direction stud and screw to the mounting socket and stud hole on the camcorder. Then tighten the screw clockwise.
●Some tripods are not
equipped with studs.
1 Slide and hold OPEN/EJECT in the direction of the arrow, then pull the cassette holder cover open until it locks. The cassette holder opens automatically.
●Do not touch internal components.
2 Insert or remove a tape and press “PUSH HERE” to close the cassette holder.
●Be sure to press only the section labeled “PUSH HERE” to close the cassette holder; touching other parts may cause your finger to get caught in the cassette holder, resulting in injury or product damage.
●Once the cassette holder is closed, it recedes automatically. Wait until it recedes completely before closing the cassette holder cover.
●When the battery pack’s charge is low, you may not be able to close the cassette holder cover. Do not apply force. Replace the battery pack with a fully charged one or use AC power before continuing.
3 Close the cassette holder cover firmly until it locks into place.
●Be careful not to pinch your fingers by the cassette holder cover.
