Notes:

•If a blank portion or disturbed image is played back on the player during dubbing, the dubbing may stop so that an unusual image is not dubbed.

•Even though the DV cable is connected

correctly, sometimes the image may not appear in step 4 . If this occurs, turn off the power and make connections again.

•If “Playback Zoom” (23) or “Playback Special Effects” (23) is attempted or SNAPSHOT is pressed during playback, only the original playback image recorded on the tape is output from the DV IN/OUT connector.

•When using a DV cable, be sure to use the optional JVC VC-VDV204U or VC-VDV206U DV cable.
