• Check the direction before inserting the memory card. Forcing a mem-
ory card into the slot if it is not correctly oriented may damage the mem-
ory card or the camcorder.
• Do not attach any labels or stickers on the memory card.
• Secure Digital (SD) memory cards
have a physical switch to prevent writ-
ing on the card so as to avoid the
accidental erasure of the card's con-
tent. To write-protect the memory card
set the switch to the LOCK position.
Built-in Rechargeable Lithium Battery
The camcorder has a built-in rechargeable lithium battery to keep the
date/time and other settings. The built-in lithium battery is recharged
while you use the camcorder; however, it will discharge completely if
you do not use the camcorder for about 3 months.
To recharge the built-in lithium battery: Connect the compact power
adapter to the camcorder and leave it connected for 24 hours with the
camcorder off.
Disposal
When you delete movies or initialize the memory, only the file allocation
table is altered and stored data is not physically erased. Take the nec-
essary precautions when you dispose of the camcorder or memory
card, for example by physically damaging it to prevent the leakage of
private data.
If giving the camcorder or memory card to another person, initialize the
built-in memory (
/ only) or memory card using the [Complete
Initialization] option (
0
41). Fill it up with unimportant recordings, and
then initialize it again using the same option. This makes recovering the
original recordings very difficult.
