Notes before sending your camcorder for
repair

Your camcorder may require initializing
or changing the current hard disk of the
camcorder, depending on the problem. In this
case, the data stored on the hard disk will be
deleted. Be sure to save the data on the 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.
