Cassette Handling Precautions
Rewind tapes after use. If the tape is lose or damaged, it may cause picture and sound distortion.
Return cassettes to their case and store them upright. Rewind tapes from time to time if they are
stored for a long time.
Do not leave the cassette in the camcorder after use.
Do not use spliced tapes or nonstandard cassettes as they may damage the camcorder.
Do not use tapes that have been jammed as video heads may become dirty.
Do not insert anything into the small holes of the cassette, or cover them with cellophane tape.
Handle cassettes with care. Do not drop or subject them to severe impact as this may damage the
cassettes.
With cassettes equipped with a memory function, metal plated terminals may become dirty with use.
Clean the terminals with a cotton swab after about 10 times of loading/unloading. The memory
function is not supported by the camcorder.
Protecting Tapes from Accidental Erasure
To protect your recordings from accidental erasure, slide
the tab on the cassette to the left. (This switch position is
usually labeled SAVE or ERASE OFF.)
If you load a protected cassette in recording mode, the
message "THE TAPE IS SET FOR ERASURE
PREVENTION" appears for approx. 4 seconds and
starts flashing. If you wish to record on that cassette,
slide the tab back to the right.

Memory Card

To transfer the still images recorded on the memory disc to a computer, use a commercially available
card reader or PC/PCMCIA memory card adapter.
Initialize new memory cards with the camcorder. Memory cards initialized with other devices such as
a computer may not operate correctly.
We recommend backing up memory card images to your computer's hard drive or other external
memory device. Image data may be corrupted or lost due to memory card defects or exposure to
static electricity. Canon makes no warranties for corrupted or lost data.
Do not use memory cards in places subject to strong magnetic fields.
Do not leave memory cards in places subject to high humidity or high temperature.
Do not disassemble memory cards.
Do not bend, drop, or subject memory cards to shocks and do not expose them to water.
