Attaching the Shoulder Strap

We recommend that you attach the Shoulder Strap before going outdoors to record so as to avoid dropping the Palmcorder.

1Pass the tip of the Shoulder Strap through the Shoulder Strap Holders on the Palmcorder and pull the Shoulder Strap.

2Fold the tips of the Shoulder Strap, pass it through the Shoulder Strap Length Adjuster, and pull it.

≥Pull it out more than 1 inch (2 cm) 1 from the Shoulder Strap Length

Adjuster so that it cannot slip off.

≥Please perform this step on the other side as well.
