Customizing Your Camcorder
The default clock setting is set to New York or Panama time.
If you do not use your camcorder for about four months, the date and time settings may
be released (bars may appear) because the vanadium-lithium battery installed in your
camcorder will have been discharged. If this happened, charge the vanadium-lithium
battery (p. 108) before setting the clock.
First set the year, then the month, the day, the hour and then the minute.

SET UP.
(3) Touch CLOCK SET.
(4) Turn the control dial to adjust the year, then press the dial.
(5) Set the month, day, hour and minute by turning the control dial and pressing
the dial.
(6) Touch EXEC on the screen.
The clock starts to operate.
