Notes
• Before inserting a cassette, make sure that there
is no cassette in the cassette compartment.
Inserting two cassettes by mistake may cause a
malfunction.
• Internal parts of the camcorder may become
bent or otherwise damaged if you attempt to
insert a mini-size cassette in the wrong direction
(such as with the cassette turned backside front
so the reel holes face the cassette holder window
or with the cassette turned sideways so that a
short side enters first).
• If a cassette is not inserted completely or gets
stuck when being inserting, take out the cassette
and reinsert it. If your insert a cassette forcibly,
the cassette may not be inserted in the correct
position or may cause a malfunction.
• When inserting a cassette, hold the center of the
cassette and insert it straight toward the
compartment.
Holding the side of the cassette
may cause it to be inserted incorrectly.
• When inserting a cassette, put the camcorder on
a horizontal and stable surface.
• When inserting a mini DV cassette tape, strong
light entering the slot may cause a malfunction
such as improper cassette type detection.
