Connecting the USB cable

files in a memory card to the PC.
1To assure safety, make sure all
units are turned off before
making any connections.
2Use the USB cable to connect
the camcorder to the PC.
NOTES:
It is recommended to use the AC
Adapter as the power supply instead
of the battery pack.
When the USB cable is connected,
turning on or off the camcorder or
switching the VIDEO/MEMORY (DSC)
mode on the camcorder causes
malfunctions of the PC.

happens, connect the camcorder directly
to the PC, not through the hub.
Do not use an extension USB cable.
