About language setting

The on-screen displays in each local language

are used for illustrating the operating
procedures. Change the screen language before
using the camcorder if necessary (p. 20).
On recording
To ensure stable operation of the memory

card, it is recommended to format the memory
card with your camcorder before the first use
(p. 91). Formatting the memory card will erase
all the data stored on it and the data will be
irrecoverable. Save your important data on your
PC etc.
Before starting to record, test the recording

function to make sure the image and sound are
recorded without any problems.
Compensation for the contents of recordings

cannot be provided, even if recording or
playback is not possible due to a malfunction of
the camcorder, recording media, etc.
TV color systems differ depending on the

country/region. To view your recordings on a
TV, you need a PAL system-based TV.

and other materials may be copyrighted.

be contrary to the copyright laws.
Use the camcorder in accordance with local

regulations.
