Step 2 Setting the date and time

Set the date and time settings when you use your camcorder for the first time. “CLOCK SET” will be displayed each time that you set the POWER switch to CAMERA/MEMORY (except DCR-TRV240) unless you set the date and time settings. If you do not use your camcorder for about half a year, the date and time settings may be cleared from memory (bars may appear) because the built-in rechargeable battery installed in your camcorder will have been discharged (p. 196).

Set the year, then the month, the day, the hour and then the minute.

(1) Set the POWER switch to CAMERA or MEMORY (except DCR-TRV240), and then press MENU to display the menu settings.

(2) Turn the SEL/PUSH EXEC dial to select CLOCK SET in , then press the dial.

(3) Turn the SEL/PUSH EXEC dial to adjust the desired year, then press the dial.

(4) Set the month, day and hour by turning the SEL/PUSH EXEC dial and pressing the dial.

(5) Set the minute by turning the SEL/PUSH EXEC dial and pressing the dial by the time signal. The clock starts to move.

(6) Press MENU to make the menu settings disappear.
