Using the Wireless Remote Control 
Use the wireless remote control to operate the camcorder from a distance. The PLAY, F.FWD, 
REW, STOP, PAUSE (START/STOP) and ZOOM buttons on the wireless remote control operate 
the functions of the corresponding buttons on the camcorder. Aim the wireless remote control at 
the infrared receiver of the camcorder. 
Aiming remote Illustration 
Note: Use the wireless remote control within the range of the infrared receiver of the 
camcorder shown above. 
Note: The wireless remote control may not function in strong light such as direct sunlight or 
very bright artificial lighting. 
Note: Clear a direct path from the wireless remote control to the infrared receiver. The 
wireless remote control won't work if an obstacle blocks the infrared rays. 
Note: The remote control code of this camcorder is Hitachi code VCR2. If you have a VCR 
with the same code your Hitachi VCR may malfunction when you use the camcorder's 
wireless remote control. 
Creating and Recording A Title 
Create titles easily and personalize your recordings while keeping a permanent visual record of 
what is contained on a tape. The camcorder can store a title in its memory. A title stored in 
memory can be displayed and recorded at any time. A title contains two lines of up to 16 
characters per line. The camcorder contains 47 different characters for creating a title. When 
creating and recording a title, use the TITLE ON/OFF button on the remote control. (When 
creating a title in the CAM mode, the DATE/TITLE button of the camcorder can be used instead 
of the TITLE ON/OFF button on the remote control. " 
 TITLE" should be displayed in the 
viewfinder at this time.) 
Note: Be sure to insert the clock battery before creating a title. Although a title can be created 
without the clock battery inserted, it will disappear when the battery providing power to the 
camcorder is removed. 
 
Creating a Title 
1. Connect the camcorder to a power source. 
2. Hold down the red button on the CAM/OFF/VIDEO switch and slide it to either CAM or VIDEO. 
3. Press the TITLE ON/OFF button on the remote control and a flashing cursor appears in the 
viewfinder.
