transmitter at the AV optical receiver. 
When the AV optical receiver senses a signal from the camcorder, the 
power lamp of the receiver changes to green to show that the receiver is

no signal can be transmitted.

screen. 

Note: When you use the remote control to operate the camcorder, point it at 
the infrared receiver of the camcorder. You cannot operate the camcorder by 
pointing the remote control at the AV optical receiver. 

6. When playback is finished, set the CAM/OFF/VIDEO switch of the 
camcorder to "OFF". After approx. 20 seconds, the power lamp of the AV 
optical receiver changes to red to show that the receiver has entered the

* Lift the fitting at the bottom of the camcorder; it can be used as a simple 
stand. 

Note: The stand is likely to slip and may fall down even with a slight impact, 
so be careful when selecting the position where the camcorder is to be 
installed using the stand.
