IMPORTANT

Be sure to finalize the disc in normal room temperatures. If the procedure was not completed correctly due to high temperature, let the camcorder cool off before resuming operation.

Place the camcorder on a table or other stable surface before starting the procedure. Subjecting the camcorder even to slight impacts (for example to place it on a table or to disconnect a cable) after the finalization process started may result in permanent data loss.

Do not disconnect the power source while the operation is in progress. Doing so can interrupt the process and result in permanent data loss.

Depending on the type of disc and the disc specification, after finalizing the disc you may not be able to initialize the disc, edit your recordings or add new recordings to the disc.

Do not use this camcorder to finalize discs that were not recorded using it.

NOTES

The time required to finalize the disc depends on the scenes recorded and the remaining free space on the disc.

After the disc is finalized, will appear on the playback screen.
