Step 6 Preparing a disc for recording

A new DVD-R or DVD-RW is required for recording. You cannot overwrite or delete
data recorded on a DVD-R, but you can delete data and record again with a DVD-RW.
The preparation procedure is different depending on the type of disc you use.

Note
You can open the disc cover only while the Access/Open lamp is lit in green. The cover
will be locked after about 30 seconds if you do not open the disc cover. When the lamp
turns off, slide the disc cover OPEN switch again.

Tips
•The camcorder is set in the VIDEO mode as the default setting.
•Formatting is required when a DVD-RW is used for the first time.
