indicators on the screen are replaced by the

flashing indicator. To check the type of warning, rotate the monitor back to the normal position.

•In Self Recording mode, it is not possible to record using manual recording modes, change picture adjustments, display menus, record the date and time, or use the Quick Return and some of the other functions.
