AUTOMATIC DEMONSTRATION

Automatic Demonstration takes place when “DEMO MODE” is set to “ON”
(factory-preset).

• Available when the Power Switch

is set to “

” or “

”.

• Performing any operation during the demonstration stops the demonstration temporarily. If no operation

is performed for more than 1 minute after that, the demonstration will resume.

• “DEMO MODE” remains “ON” even if the camcorder power is turned off.
• To cancel Automatic Demonstration, set the Power Switch

to “

” and press the MENU Wheel

while the demo is in progress. This takes you directly to the demo mode’s Setting Menu (so you will not
have to go through the main Menu Screen). Rotate the MENU Wheel

to select “OFF” and press it.

NOTES:

• When a tape whose Erase Protection tab is in the position that allows recording is loaded in the

camcorder, demonstration is not available.

• If you do not detach the Lens Cap, you cannot see the actual changes of the Automatic Demonstration

activated on the LCD monitor* or viewfinder.

* Applicable models only.
