Notes before sending your camcorder
for repair
• Your camcorder may be required to
initialize or change the current hard disk
of the camcorder, depending on the
problem. In the event of this, the data
stored on the hard disk will be deleted. Be
sure to save the data on the internal hard
disk (p. 37) on other media (backup)
before sending your camcorder for repair.
We will not compensate you for any loss
of hard disk data.
• During repair, we may check a minimum
amount of data stored on the hard disk in
order to investigate the problem.
However, your Sony dealer will neither
copy nor retain your data.
The power does not turn on.
Attach a charged battery pack to the
camcorder (p. 13).
Connect the plug of the AC Adaptor to the
wall socket (p. 13).
Set the camcorder onto the Handycam
Station securely (p. 13).
The camcorder does not operate
even when the power is set to on.
It takes a few seconds for your camcorder
to be ready to shoot after the power is
turned on. This is not a malfunction.
Disconnect the AC Adaptor from the wall
socket or remove the battery pack, then
reconnect it after about 1 minute. If the
functions still do not work, press the
RESET button (p. 119) using a sharp-
pointed object. (If you press the RESET
button, all settings, including the clock
setting, are reset.)
The temperature of your camcorder is
extremely high. Turn off your camcorder
and leave it for a while in a cool place.
The temperature of your camcorder is

take it to a warm place. Leave the
camcorder there for a while, then turn on
the camcorder.
