CHANGING DISPLAY FORMAT OF DATE AND TIME

month/day. Choose “Date Mode” on the “Date Setup” menu screen in procedure 1, and then set to
the desired date display mode.
Note :
This DVD video camera/recorder incorporates a rechargeable battery to store the date and time in memory. If this
built-in battery is exhausted, the date and time will be reset. To prevent this, connect the AC adapter/charger to DVD

turned off: The built-in battery will be charged.
Use 2 / 1 / 0 / / buttons
to select, and then press  to
