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

(/ only) to permanently delete all the recordings it contains.

/ At the time of purchase, the built-in memory comes preinitialized and contains music files for use as background music during playback. It also contains images used for the image mix function.

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.

2 Initialize the memory.
