Getting Started
Correcting the Date and Time
1. Press the DATE button while pressing the stop button. The flashing cursor appears at
the month.
2. Move to where you need to make the correction with the STOP button and use the
F.FWD and REW/REVIEW to correct.
3. Press the DATE button to set the corrected date and time.
Automatic Date Recording
This feature records the date automatically once a day. After you begin recording, the
date is displayed and recorded automatically for 10 seconds. The same date is
recorded again in the following cases; when the cassette is replaced, when " AUTO" is
displayed again after being switched to the date display and when the recording is less
than 10 seconds long.
If the date changes while recording continues over 10 seconds, the date is recorded for
10 seconds when recording is restarted after the camera/recorder has been set to the
standby once.
Press the DATE button until " AUTO" and the date appear at the lower right of the
viewfinder before you begin to record. The date will be recorded whenever it appears in
the viewfinder.
Using the Linear Time Counter
The linear time counter displays the tape run in hours, minutes, and seconds helping
you to keep track of how long you've been filming or time you have left to film before
running out of tape.
Turn the camera/recorder on to display the linear time counter. The linear time counter
keeps track from when you load a cassette into the camera/recorder and clears to
0:00:00 when the cassette is ejected.
