Inserting and Removing Cassettes

Cassette Care and Storage

• When you are finished with a cassette,

rewind it, remove it from the
camcorder, and label it.

• Store cassettes vertically in their

protective cases at normal room
temperatures. Do not leave your
camcorder or cassettes in a car or
outdoors for an extended period.
Excessive heat or cold may damage
your cassettes.

• Keep the cassette away from strong

magnetic fields such as electric motors
and other devices.

• Keep dust from entering the cassette

compartment. All dust is abrasive and
will cause excessive wear on the tape
and the camcorder’s recording or
playback heads.

• Do not use cassettes with damaged or

spliced tape.

• Do not use a cassette if it has been

damaged or exposed to moisture. The
tape may jam and/or damage your
camcorder.
