When problems occur while the unit is operating, the self-diagnosis
function starts working, and displays on the viewfinder, LCD screen
or LCD window what to do. This function consists of two display;
self-diagnosis display and service mode display.
Details of the self-diagnosis functions are provided in the Instruction
manual.

The “self-diagnosis display” data will be backed up by the coin-type lithium battery of CK-102 board BT3201. When the cabinet (R)(CK-102
board) is removed, the “self-diagnosis display” data will be lost by initialization.

When problems occur while the unit is operating, the counter of the
viewfinder, LCD screen or LCD window consists of an alphabet
and 4-digit numbers, which blinks at 3.2 Hz. This 5-character display
indicates the “repaired by:”, “block” in which the problem occurred,
and “detailed code” of the problem.

The service mode display shows up to six self-diagnosis codes shown in the past.

While pressing the “STOP” key, set the switch from OFF to “VCR”, and continue pressing the “STOP” key for 5 seconds continuously. The
service mode will be displayed, and the counter will show the backup No. and the 5-character self-diagnosis codes.

By rotating the control dial, past self-diagnosis codes will be shown in order. The backup No. in the [] indicates the order in which the
problem occurred. (If the number of problems which occurred is less than 6, only the number of problems which occurred will be shown.)
[1] : Occurred first time

[4] : Occurred fourth time

[2] : Occurred second time

[5] : Occurred fifth time

[3] : Occurred third time

[6] : Occurred the last time

Turning OFF the power supply will end the service mode display.

letters.
e.g. Set the POWER switch to CAMERA.
When you carry out an operation, you can hear a
beep sound to indicate that the operation is being
carried out.

Your camcorder is based on the DV format. You
can only use mini DV cassettes with your
camcorder. We recommend that you use a tape
with cassette memory 

.

The functions which require different operations
depending on whether the tape has the cassette
memory or not are:

– End search (p. 37)
– Date search (p. 84)
– Photo search (p. 86)

The functions you can operate only with the
cassette memory are:

– Title search (p. 82)
– Superimposing a title (p. 121)
– Making your own titles (p. 125)
– Labelling a cassette (p. 127)

For details, see page 221.

You see this mark in the introduction of
the features that are operated only with
cassette memory.

Tapes with cassette memory are marked by 
(Cassette Memory).

•Never leave your camcorder exposed to

temperatures above 60°C (140°F), such as in a
car parked in the sun or under direct sunlight
[b].

•Be careful when placing the camera near a

window or outdoors. Exposing the LCD screen,
the finder or the lens to direct sunlight for long
periods may cause malfunctions [c].

•Do not directly shoot the sun. Doing so might

cause your camcorder to malfunction. Take
pictures of the sun in low light conditions such
as dusk [d].

• Не допускайте, чтобы видеокамера

становилась влажной. Предохраняйте
видеокамеру от дождя и морской воды.
Если Вы намочите видеокамеру, это может
привести к неисправности аппарата,
которая не всегда может быть устранена
[a].

• Никогда не оставляйте видеокамеру в

видеокамеру вблизи окна или вне
помещения. Действие прямого солнечного
света на видоискатель или объектив в
течение длительных промежутков времени
может вызвать неисправности [c].

• Не снимайте солнце непосредственно. Это

может привести к неисправности
видеокамеры. Выполняйте съемку солнца в
условиях низкой освещенности, например,
на закате [d].
