Using the Remote
Control
Use the supplied remote control to operate the
camcorder from a distance, such as when you
want to record yourself in a scene, or when the
camcorder is connected to a TV for use as a
VCR.
Notes:
• Be careful not to expose the remote sensor to
direct sunlight or strong interior lighting, as this
may prevent the remote control from operating
properly.
• Be sure that there are no obstacles between the
remote control and the remote sensor.
Operating
Aim the remote control at the remote sensor of
the camcorder, and press the control buttons to
operate.
