Insert a videocassette into the cassette insertion slot.

● Slowly close the cassette cover.
MEMO:
● Use a standard DV videocassette or a MiniDV
videocassette. (When a DVCAM cassette is used for
recording, longer recording can be performed than the
time indicated on the DVCAM cassette. For the recording
time, regard the remaining tape indication displayed on
the LCD or in the viewfinder as a guide.)
● Following loading of the cassette and when the POWER
switch is turned ON/OFF, the built-in head cleaner will
