NOTES

•If a memory card becomes full during double slot recording, recording on both cards will stop.

•If an error occurs with one of the memory cards, recording will continue on the other card.

Initializing the Memory

Initialize memory cards when you use them with this camcorder for the first time. You can also initialize a memory card or the built-in memory to permanently delete all the recordings it contains.

At the time of purchase, the built-in memory comes pre-initialized and contains music files for use as background music and images for use with the image mix function (image mix frames).

Operating modes:

1Power the camcorder using the compact power adapter.

• Do not disconnect the power source or turn off the camcorder until the initialization is completed.

2Open the initialization screen for the desired memory.

[FUNC.] >[MENU] >q>[Initialize &/*] >[&Built-in Mem.], [6Mem. Card A] or [7Mem. Card B] >[Initialize]

•Touching [FUNC.] is necessary only when performing the procedure in a recording mode.

•In the initialization screen, touch [Complete Initialization] to physically erase all the data rather than just clear the file allocation table of the memory.

3Touch [Yes].

•If you selected the [Complete Initialization] option, you can touch [Cancel] to cancel the initialization while it is in progress. All recordings will be erased and the memory can be used without any problem.

4 Touch [OK] and then touch [X].
