Cassette Care and Storage
• When you are finished with a cassette,
rewind it, remove it from the cam-
corder, and label it.
• Store cassettes vertically in their
protective cases at normal room
temperatures. Do not leave your
camcorder or cassettes in a car or
outdoors for an extended period.
Excessive heat or cold might damage
your cassettes.
• Keep the cassette away from strong
magnetic fields such as electric motors
and other devices.

1. Press EJECT. The cassette holder
opens automatically.
2. Insert the cassette with the tape wheel
facing up and tape window facing out.
3. Press on the area labeled PUSH until

• Keep dust from entering the cassette
compartment. All dust is abrasive and
causes excessive wear on the tape and
the camcorder's recording or playback
heads.
• Do not use cassettes with damaged or
spliced tape.
• Do not use a cassette if it has been
damaged or exposed to moisture. The
tape might jam and/or damage your
camcorder.
Caution: Insert
the cassette
only one way
with the tape
wheel facing up
and the tape
window facing
out. The
cassette should
slide easily into
the holder. Do
not force the
cassette.
