Playpak)

Use this to play back an S-VHS-C/VHS-C video cassette recorded with this camcorder on a S-VHS/

VHS VCR.

1)Slide the battery cover up to remove it, install one “AA (R6)” size battery, then reattach the cover.

2)Slide the latch to open the compartment door, then insert the cassette and close the compartment door.

3)Load the cassette adapter into the VCR and play the tape back.

4)Slide the latch and the compartment door opens automatically. This may take around 10 seconds. Do not attempt to force the adapter open. Then, insert your finger in the hole, and push up and remove the cassette.

During tape loading and unloading, do not touch the reels for safety and tape protection.

Tapes recorded in S-VHS or S-VHS ET mode cannot be played back on a regular VHS VCR. Playback is possible with a VCR equipped with the S-VHS or SQPB (S-VHS QUASI PLAYBACK) function (GR-SXM740/SXM340/SXM240

only).

During special-effect playback (slow motion, still frame, etc.), the picture may vibrate or noise bars may appear on the screen.

To record on a VCR using a compact cassette and the adapter, cover the adapter’s recording safety hole with adhesive tape.
