Note: After the simple programmable edit is finished, the programmed data is 
erased. If you want to continue editing other segments, repeat steps 5 ~ 12. 
Note: If you make a mistake in the middle of programming or want to correct 
the programmed data, start again from the beginning. 
Note: Most VCRs (recording machine) may be released from the record 
pause mode if it continues for more than five minutes. 
Note: The dubbing start and end positions may slightly drift from the specified 
positions when certain VCRs are used. 
Note: If you perform programmable simple edit using the optical link function, 
the infrared rays from the edit remote control may strike the AV optical 
receiver and noise may occur in the picture and sound. We recommend that 
you use the AV output cable for simple editing. 
To End Programmable Simple Edit 
Press the PROGRAM button to remove the program display from the 
viewfinder. Then press the stop button on the recording VCR to set it to 
the stop mode. 
Note: if the CAM/OFF/VIDEO switch of the camcorder is set to OFF or CAM 
when the recording VCR is in the record pause mode, the VCR enters the 
record mode. 
Controlling Your TV with the Camcorder's Remote Control 
The remote control is designed to be compatible with many televisions, 
but will not work with every one made. If your TV does not respond the 
way it should when you program it as explained below, this remote may be 
incapable of operating it. 
Once you have programmed the remote, you won't have to do it again 
until you change the batteries. 
This remote control can be used with your TV as well as the camcorder, 
as long as your TV comes with a remote control. This feature comes in 
handy -- you don't have to juggle two remotes. 
The remote control is compatible with the fourteen makers of TVs listed on 
the next page -- but don't be alarmed if yours is not on our list. You may 
still be able to program the remote for your TV. 
Every TV that comes with a remote control is set up to detect certain 
infrared signals. You need to program the camcorder remote control to 
send signals that your TV will recognize and respond to. Here's what to 
do: 
Programming the Remote Control 
 Turn the television on (any channel is okay). 
 Aim the camcorder's remote control at your TV set. Hold down the CH 
( ) button while you press the button corresponding to your brand of 
television as shown in the chart (page 57). 
For example, if you have an RCA television, press CH ( ) and DISPLAY 
at the same time. If this button combination sends a signal that matches 
with your TV, the channel will change on the TV, and you'll know the 
remote is set to control the television. 
 If that button combination does not change the TV channel, go through 
the whole list of button combinations one by one until you find one that 
does change your TV channel. 
Also, if your brand of TV is not listed in the chart, try all the buttons. One of 
them may work for you. 
If the TV channel still doesn't change after going through all the button
