you can save your image data using a VCR, or a
DVD/HDD recorder (p. 66).
Do not apply shock or vibration to your
camcorder
The hard disk of the camcorder may not be
recognized, or recording or playback may not
be possible.
Especially, during recording/playback, do not
apply shock. After recording, do not apply
vibration or shock to the camcorder, while the
ACCESS lamp is lit.
When using a shoulder belt (sold separately), do
not crash the camcorder against an object.
Do not use your camcorder in very loud areas.
On the drop sensor
To protect the internal hard disk from shock
by dropping, the camcorder has a drop sensor
function (p. 98). 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 battery pack/AC Adaptor
Be sure to remove the battery pack or the AC
Adaptor after turning off the camcorder.
Note on operating temperatures
When the temperature of the camcorder
becomes extremely high or extremely low, you
may not be able to record or play back on the
camcorder, due to the protection features of the
camcorder being activated in such situations.
In this case, an indicator appears on the LCD
screen (p. 112).
When the camcorder is connected to a
computer
Do not try to format the hard disk or music file
storage area (HDR-XR200E/XR200VE) of the
camcorder using a computer. If you do so, your
camcorder may not operate correctly.
Note on using the camcorder at high
altitudes
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

hard disk drive of your camcorder.
Note on disposal/transfer
Even if you perform [MEDIA FORMAT] (p. 71)
or formatting the hard disk of the camcorder,
you may not delete data from the hard disk
completely. When you transfer the camcorder, it
is recommended that you perform [ EMPTY]
(p. 71) to prevent the recovery of your data.
Also, when you dispose of the camcorder, it is
recommended that you destroy the actual body
of the camcorder.
If you cannot record/play back images,
perform [MEDIA FORMAT]
If you repeat recording/deleting images for
a long time, fragmentation of data occurs on
the recording media. Images cannot be saved
or recorded. In such a case, save your images
on some type of external media first (p. 66,
see Operating Guide too), and then perform
[MEDIA FORMAT] (p. 71).
