●To select the desired sound for playback, press AUDIO MONITOR on the remote control.

●If you dub onto a blank space on the tape, the sound may be disrupted. Make sure you only edit recorded areas.

●If feedback or howling occurs during TV Playback, move the camcorder’s microphone away from the TV, or turn down the TV’s volume.

●To hear sound, connect optional headphones to the AV OUT (headphones) connector.

●If you change from 32 kHz to 48 kHz in mid-recording and then use the tape for Audio Dubbing, it is not effective from the point where 48 kHz recording began.

●During Audio Dubbing, when the tape moves to scenes recorded in the LP mode, scenes recorded at 48 kHz or a blank portion, Audio Dubbing stops and “ERROR! REFER MANUAL” appears.
