Power source The camcorder will not turn on or it turns off by itself. - The battery pack is depleted. Replace or charge the battery pack. - Remove the battery pack and reattach it correctly. Cannot charge the battery pack. - Make sure the camcorder is off so charging can start.
Troubleshooting When a subject flits across in front of the lens, the image appears slightly bent. - This is a phenomenon typical of CMOS image sensors. When a subject crosses very quickly in front of the camcorder, the image may seem slightly warped. This is not a malfunction. Changing the operating mode between recording (Ü)/record standby (Ñ)/playback (Ð) takes longer than usual. - When the SD card contains a large number of clips, some operations may take longer than usual.
Troubleshooting The red POWER/CHG indicator flashes rapidly (one flash at 0.5-second intervals). - The temperature of the battery pack is outside its operating range (approximately 0 – 40 °C (32 – 104 °F)). Remove the battery pack, warm it or let it cool down, as necessary, and try charging it again. - Charge the battery pack in temperatures between approximately 0 °C and 40 °C (32 °F and 104 °F). - The battery pack is damaged. Use a different battery pack.
