    About the SD Memory CardSD Memory Card
    The SD Memory is an external Memory Card that 
    is available in larger capacities. It has a write 
    protect switch to prevent data writing and card 
    formatting, as well as a copyright protection 
    function. 
    ≥SD Logo is a trademark.
    ≥All other company and product names in the 
    operating instructions are trademarks or 
    registered trademarks of their respective 
    corporations.
    Files recorded on a SD Memory Card 
    It may not be possible to play back the files on 
    this Camcorder recorded on and created by other 
    equipment or vice versa. For this reason, check 
    the compatibility of the equipment in advance.
    ª
    About the compatibility of the card 
    files
    Data files recorded on an “SD Memory Card” by 
    this Camcorder conform with DCF (Design rule 
    for Camera File system) established by JEITA 
    (Japan Electronics and Information Technology 
    Industries Association).
    ≥If you attempt to play back files recorded with 
    this Camcorder on other equipment or to play 
    back files recorded with other equipment on this 
    Camcorder, you may not be able to play them 
    back. Please check the compatibility with the 
    other equipment in advance.ª
    About the folder structure when using 
    the Memory Card in a personal 
    computer
    ≥When a Card with data recorded on it is inserted 
    into a personal computer, folders will be 
    displayed as shown in the following figure.
    [100CDPFP]: The images (IMGA0001.JPG, 
    etc.) in this folder are recorded in 
    the JPEG format.
    [MISC]: Files in which DPOF Data has 
    been set to the image are in this 
    folder.
    ≥[DCIM] etc. are necessary items in the folder 
    structure. They have nothing to do with actual 
    operation.
    ≥In Card Mode, the Camcorder automatically 
    saves file numbers (IMGA0001.JPG, etc.) along 
    with the images. The file numbers are recorded 
    with each image as consecutive numbers.
    ≥When using the software without indication 
    function, indication data, such as date, are not 
    displayed. Depending on the software in use, 
    the date and the time may not be displayed 
    correctly.
    ≥The memory capacity indicated on the SD Card 
    label corresponds to the total card capacity. 
    Some of this capacity is used to protect and 
    manage the copyright data, and not all capacity 
    is available as conventional memory for a 
    Camcorder, personal computer or others.

    Before requesting repair 
    (Problems and solutions)
    Power/Body
    1: The Camcorder power cannot be turned on.
     Is the battery fully charged? Use a fully 
    charged battery.
     The battery protection circuit may have 
    operated. Attach the battery to the AC adaptor 
    for 5 to 10 seconds. If the Camcorder still 
    cannot be used, the battery is faulty.
    2: The Camcorder power is turned off 
    automatically.
     If you set [POWER SAVE] to [5 MINUTES] and 
    do not operate the Camcorder for about 
    5 continuous minutes, the power is 
    automatically turned off for tape protection and 
    power conservation. To resume recording, turn 
    the [OFF/ON] switch to [OFF]. Then turn it to 
    [ON] again. (
    -28-) 
    3: The Camcorder power does not stay on 
    long enough.
     Is the battery low? If the remaining battery 
    power indication is flashing or the message 
    “LOW BATTERY” is displayed, the battery has 
    run down. Charge the battery or attach a fully 
    charged battery. (
    -16-) 
     Has condensation occurred? When you carry 
    the Camcorder from a cold place into a warm 
    place, condensation may occur inside it. If so, 
    the power is turned off automatically, disabling 
    all operations except for taking cassettes out. 
    Wait until the condensation indication 
    disappears. (
    -73-) 
    4: Battery runs down quickly.
     Is the battery fully charged? Charge it with the 
    AC adaptor. (
    -16-) 
     Are you using the battery in an extremely cold 
    place? The battery is affected by ambient 
    temperature. In cold places, the operating time 
    of the battery becomes shorter.
     Has the battery worn out? The battery has a 
    limited life. If the operating time is still too short 
    even after the battery is fully charged, 
    depending on the usage, the battery has worn 
    out and can no longer be used. 
    5: The Camcorder cannot be operated though 
    powered up.
    The Camcorder does not operate normally.
     Remove the cassette and then press the 
    [RESET] button. (
    -72-) If normal conditions are 
    not restored yet, turn off the power. Then, 
    about 1 minute later, turn on the power again. 
    (Conducting the above operation when the 
    access lamp is on may destroy the data on the 
    card.) 6: The cassette cannot be removed.
     Does the power lamp comes on when opening 
    the cassette cover? (
    -20-) Make sure that the 
    battery and the AC adaptor are properly 
    connected. (
    -16-) 
     Is the battery in use discharged? Charge the 
    battery and remove the cassette.
     Close the cassette cover completely, and fully 
    open it again. (
    -18-) 
    7: No operation other than cassette removal 
    can be performed.
     Has condensation occurred? Wait until the 
    condensation indication disappears. (
    -73-) 
    8: The remote control does not function.
     Has the button-type battery of the remote 
    control run out? Replace it with a new button-
    type battery. (
    -25-) 
     Is the setting on the remote control correct? If 
    the setting on the remote control is not in 
    agreement with the [REMOTE] setting on the 
    Camcorder, the remote control does not 
    operate. (
    -25-) 
    Recording
    1: Recording does not start although power is 
    supplied to the Camcorder and the cassette 
    is correctly inserted.
     Is the accidental erasure prevention slider on 
    the cassette open? If it is open (set to [SAVE]), 
    recording cannot be performed. (
    -18-) 
     Is the tape wound to the end? Insert a new 
    cassette.
     Is the recording mode set? When in the 
    playback mode, recording cannot be 
    performed. (
    -27-) 
     Has condensation occurred? No operation 
    other than cassette removal can be performed 
    when condensation occurs. Wait until the 
    condensation indication disappears. (
    -73-) 
     Is the cassette cover open? If the cover is 
    open, the Camcorder may not operate 
    normally. Close the cassette cover. (
    -18-) 
    2: The screen has changed suddenly.
     Has the demonstration started? In the Tape 
    Recording mode, if you set [DEMO MODE] >> 
    [ON] without inserting a cassette and a card, 
    the demonstration starts. For normal use, set 
    this function to [OFF]. (
    -65-) 
    3: A cassette cannot be inserted.
     Has condensation occurred? Wait until the 
    condensation indication disappears.
    4: Auto focus function does not work.
     Is manual focus mode selected? If auto focus 
    mode is selected, focus is automatically 
    adjusted.
