Notes on use
Do not do any of the following, otherwise, the
recording media may be damaged, recorded
images may be impossible to play back or may
be lost, or other malfunctions could occur.
Eject the memory card when the access lamp
(p. 14) is lit or flashing
Remove the battery pack or AC Adaptor from
the camcorder, or subject the camcorder to
shock or vibration when the POWER lamp
(p. 14) or the access lamp (p. 14) are lit or
flashing
Do not use your camcorder in very loud areas
(DCR-SR21).
On the drop sensor (DCR-SR21)
To protect the internal hard disk from shock
by dropping, the camcorder has a drop sensor
function. When a drop occurs, or under a non-
gravity condition, the block noise made when
this function is activated by the camcorder may
also be recorded. If the drop sensor catches a
drop repeatedly, recording/playback may be
stopped.
Note on using the camcorder at high
altitudes (DCR-SR21)
Do not turn on the camcorder in a low-pressure
area, where the altitude is more than 5,000
meters (16,000 feet). Doing so may damage the
internal hard disk drive of your camcorder.
