Note
:
•
Once you turn the DVD video camera/recorder on to
let it recognise the disc, you can immediately record
or play back by turning the DVD video camera/
recorder on again. However, if a long time has
elapsed after the disc was inserted, it will take some
time for the DVD video camera/recorder to start
because it must recognise the disc again (see
page 138).
•
It will take some time for the DVD video camera/
recorder to display the Disc Navigation screen after
power is turned on.
•
If you turn the DVD video camera/recorder on, the
ACCESS/PC or CARD ACCESS indicator will light or
blink to show that the DVD video camera/recorder is
recognising the disc or card: During this time, no
operation, such as recording, can be performed.
After several seconds, the ACCESS/PC or CARD
ACCESS indicator will go out, and operating the
DVD video camera/recorder will be possible.
If the ACCESS/PC or CARD ACCESS indicator does
not go out, refer to “Check 4” on page 138.
•
When the DVD video camera/recorder is turned on,
the self-diagnosis function will work and a message
may appear. In this case, refer to “Trouble Messages”
on page 139 and take corrective action.
•
While the ACCESS/PC or CARD ACCESS indicator is
lit or blinking, do not violently open or close the LCD
monitor.
