Video Cassettes
We recommend that our cassettes be used with your camcorder. Use of poor quality or
damaged tapes can contaminate the video heads. Head cleaning is not covered under
warranty and is considered normal maintenance.
1. Attach a power supply and turn on the
camcorder.
2. Press the EJECT button to open the
cassette compartment.
3. Insert the tape with the safety tab on
top and the tape window facing out.
Inserting or Removing Cassettes
Erase Protection — Safety Tab
You can protect your video cassettes
from being erased by closing the safety
tab. To erase a previous recording, open
the safety tab and record over it.
Caution: Insert the cassette so the
safety tab is at the top and the tape
window is facing out. The cassette
should slide easily in the compartment.
Do not force the cassette.
4. Gently press the compartment where
it is labeled PUSH until it clicks into
place. The top closes automatically.
CAUTION: Do not press down on the
top or you may damage your
camcorder.
