Notes
• If the unit is left in playback pause mode for a long time, the tape or the video heads may
be damaged or the video heads may become clogged. Select the shortest time possible
—particularly when using a Mini-DV cassette that is longer than 60 minutes, select 30
SEC or 1 MIN.

the new time setting is used.

recording again.
• When the recording pause mode continues for a long time after you select REC PAUSE,
