Setting the Date and Time
Take the time to set the date and time now. The date and time can be recorded on your
tapes to act as a handy reference when viewing them later. Use the following procedure
to set up the display for the current date and time.
Note: Be sure to insert the clock battery before setting the date and time. Although the date
and time can be set without the clock battery inserted, they will disappear when the battery
providing power to the camcorder is removed.
Make sure that the current time is displayed correctly before you start filming.
1. Load the battery ("Loading the Batteries: Camcorder batteries" p.15). Press the red
button on the CAM/OFF/VIDEO switch as you slide it to CAM.
2. Press the DATE/TITLE button and look into the viewfinder. The date and time should
appear in the lower right with the "1" flashing.
3. Pressing the F.F button gives you higher numbers while the REW button gives you
lower numbers. Select the right month and press STOP button. Use the F.F, REW and
STOP buttons to select the proper day, year, hour, minute, and AM or PM.
