NOTES:

●It is recommended to use the AC Power Adapter/

Charger as the power supply instead of the battery pack (☞ pg. 9).

●If your VCR has an S-Video input connector, connect the camcorder and the VCR using an optional S-Video cable. This can improve the dubbed picture quality.

●To monitor the picture and sound from the camcorder without inserting a tape, set the camcorder’s Power Switch to “CAMERA” (“AUTO” or “PRO.”), then set your TV to the appropriate input mode.

●Make sure you adjust the TV sound volume to its minimum level to avoid a sudden burst of sound when the camcorder is turned on.

●If you have a TV or speakers that are not specially shielded, do not place the speakers adjacent to the TV as interference will occur in the camcorder playback picture.
