Cause and/or what to do about it
•The remote sensor mode is set to OFFB in the menu (p. 37).
•The remote sensor modes of the wireless controller and the camera itself are different (p. 37).
•The batteries are dead or not inserted.
•It is turned off (p. 38).
•This is unlikely, but may happen if you use the camera in places where the air pressure is low, in an airplane for example. The bubbles will disappear a week or so after you return the camera to normal atmospheric pressure.
•The camcorder is preparing the lens for image stabilization. This is not a malfunction.
•External interference may cause the camera’s microprocessor to malfunction temporarily. If random letters appear in the display or if normal operation is interrupted, remove and then replace the power source.
•If the camera still does not operate properly, press the RESET button (on the camera body behind the LCD panel, p. 8) using the tip of a ball point pen (or similar). Camera functions return to their default settings.
•Remove the cable and then reconnect it or turn the power off and back on again.
•This is not a malfunction.
