NOTES:
●
The cassette holder cannot be opened unless a power supply is attached.
●
There may be a delay after you slide EJECT until the cassette holder opens. Do not use force.
●
The time required to calculate the remaining tape length, and the accuracy of the calculation, may vary
according to the type of tape used.
●
The tape remaining time indicator is correct only if the correct tape length has been selected (
Z
pg. 12).
●
“TAPE END” appears when the tape reaches its end, and the power goes off automatically if left in this
condition for 5 minutes. “TAPE END” also appears when a cassette whose tape is already at its end is loaded.
●
If the Record-Standby mode continues for 5 minutes without performing Zoom or any other operations, the
camcorder’s power shuts off automatically. Set the Power Switch to “OFF”, and then back to “CAMERA” to
turn the camcorder on again.
●
If the Recording Start/Stop button is pressed after the Record-Standby mode has continued for over 5 minutes,
recording may not start immediately.
●
If you are recording on a cassette from the middle (such as when a tape is removed and re-inserted during
recording), use the Retake function (
Z
pg. 19) to find the end of the last recording so you do not erase any
of it.
VIEWFINDER INDICATIONS
Press DISPLAY for more than 1 second to make the following indications appear/disappear from the
camcorder’s display: cassette warning, tape remaining time, battery pack remaining power indicator and tape

NOTE:
Even if the indications are off, the tape remaining time appears blinking when the tape is near its end, and the
battery pack remaining power indicator appears blinking when the power is almost gone.
