NOTES about Automatic Demonstration

Automatic Demonstration takes place when “DEMO MODE” is set to “ON” (factory-preset).

Available when the Power Switch is set to “AUTO” or “PRO.”.

Operating the Power Zoom Lever during the demonstration stops the demonstration temporarily. If the Power Zoom Lever is not moved for more than 1 minute after that, the demonstration will resume.

“DEMO MODE” remains “ON” even if the camcorder power is turned off.

To cancel Automatic Demonstration, set the Power Switch to “PRO.” and press MENU while the demo is in progress. This takes you directly to the demo mode’s Setting Menu (so you will not have to go through the main Menu Screen.) Rotate the Select Wheel to select “OFF” and press it.
