Initializing the Memory
Initialize memory cards when you use them with this camcorder for the 
first time. You can also initialize a memory card or the built-in memory 
(N only) to permanently delete all the recordings it contains. 
N At the time of purchase, the built-in memory comes pre-
initialized and contains music files for use as background music and 
image files for use with the image mix function (image mix frames).
1
Power the camcorder using the compact power adapter.
• Do  not  disconnect the power source or turn off the camcorder 
until the initialization is completed.
2
Initialize the memory.

Touch this option if you want to physically erase all the data rather than 
just clear the file allocation table of the memory.
