Display on the LCD monitor in the CAM mode: 
 
• When a recorded tape is in the camcorder during the VIDEO mode, "SEARCH" appears in the viewfinder. (Refer 
to "Date Search" on page 43). 
Note: The linear time counter with the memory feature and "SEARCH" in the viewfinder or LCD monitor can 
also be displayed on the connected television. 
Note: If the LCD monitor is opened or closed (the picture is switched) during playback, the on-screen display 
in the picture will disappear for about one second, and then reappear again. 
Note: When the date and time appear on the LCD monitor, you cannot erase them by pressing the DISPLAY 
button. If you want to erase the on-screen display, press the DATE/TITLE button on the camcorder. 
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.
