Note
:
• See “Troubleshooting” on page 135 when recording 
movie is not possible.
• See “Troubleshooting” on page 135 if it takes some 
time before recording is possible.
• See “Troubleshooting” on page 135 if the DVD video 
camera/recorder does not operate.
• See page 43 for on-screen information display.
• While the ACCESS/PC indicator is lit or blinking, do 
not turn the DVD video camera/recorder off, and take 
care not to subject it to any vibration: Doing so could 
cause an error in the recorded data, which could 
make it unplayable (see page 7).
• The minimum recordable time of movie is 
approximately 3 seconds.
• See page 33 for setting of Record LED (recording 
indicator) On/Off.
• For various functions available during recording, see 
“Setting Up Camera Functions” on page 56.
• Hitachi cannot be responsible for video and audio that 
cannot be recorded or edited because of any defect.
• The power switch can be changed over even during 
recording, but the operation will not be changed.
• It is recommended that you set the LOCK switch to L 
(the upper position) to prevent the power switch in the 
“O” position from accidentally moving to “N” position.
• Each time the DVD video camera/recorder enters the 
recording pause status, the counter display will be 
reset to “0:00:00”.
• If, when using a +RW, one-time recording duration is 
short or you frequently switch the video quality, 
recording may not be possible even when the disc 
has remaining space.
Before You Begin
• Insert a recordable disc into this DVD video camera/recorder.
