Since the battery level is very low, you cannot start recording or editing.

When the battery is completely dis- charged, the battery indicator will flash. Recharge the battery or replace the al- kaline batteries with a new one.

When the battery has run completely out, “BATT EMPTY” will appear. Then, the power will be disconnected auto- matically.

Notes:

When using the unit with alkaline bat- teries or a rechargeable battery, the bat- tery indicator will not correctly display the remaining capacity for approximately 10 seconds after the power has been turned on.

When an AC adaptor or a car adaptor is used, the battery indicator will not be shown.

The number of bars shown in the bat- tery indicator may increase or de- crease, depending on the operation being performed. This is normal.

To prevent the unit from being operated by mistake

To avoid accidental operation of the unit, use the hold function.

Move the HOLD switch to the safety posi- tion (direction indicated by the arrow).

When the unit is in the hold mode, press- ing the buttons will have no affect.

To cancel the hold mode, move the HOLD switch away from the safety po- sition (the opposite direction of the ar- row).

If the hold function is active whilst the power is turned off, the power cannot be turned on by mistake and the battery will not be accidentally drained.
