2.7 AUTOMATIC DEMONSTRATION
Automatic Demonstration takes place when "DEMO MODE" is
set to "ON" (factory-preset).
(1) Available when the Power Switch is set to "A" or "M" while
pressing down the Lock Button located on the switch.
(2) Performing any operation during the demonstration stops
the demonstration temporarily. If no operation is performed
for more than 1 minute after that, the demonstration will
resume.
(3) "DEMO MODE" remains "ON" even if the camcorder power
is turned off.
(4) To cancel Automatic Demonstration, set the Power Switch
to "M" and press the MENU Wheel in while the demo is in
progress. This takes you directly to the demo mode's Set-
ting Menu (so you will not have to go through the main
Menu Screen). Rotate the MENU Wheel to select "OFF"
and press it.
NOTE:
• When a tape whose Erase Protection tab is in the position
that allows recording is loaded in the
camcorder, demonstration is not available.
• If you do not detach the Lens Cap, you cannot see the actual
changes of the Automatic Demonstration activated on the
LCD monitor* or viewfinder.
* Applicable models only.
