Notes on DEMO MODE

•You cannot select DEMO MODE when a cassette is inserted in your camcorder. •DEMO MODE is set to STBY (Standby) at the factory and the demonstration starts

about 10 minutes after you have set the POWER switch to CAMERA without a cassette inserted.

To cancel the demonstration, insert a cassette, set the POWER switch to other than CAMERA, or set DEMO MODE to OFF.

•If you press the touch panel during the demonstration, the demonstration stops for a while, then it starts again after about 10 minutes.

•When NIGHTSHOT is set to ON, the “NIGHTSHOT” indicator appears in the viewfinder or on the LCD screen and you cannot select DEMO MODE in the menu settings.

Note

If you press DISPLAY/TOUCH PANEL with “DISPLAY” set to “V-OUT/LCD” in the menu settings, the picture from a TV or VCR will not appear on the LCD screen even when your camcorder is connected to outputs on the TV or VCR.

In more than 5 minutes after removing the power source

The “AUDIO MIX”, “COMMANDER”, “HiFi SOUND” and “WHT BAL” items are returned to their default settings.

The other menu items are held in memory even when the battery is removed.
