Troubleshooting (Continued)
Trouble
Action
If there are many files (such as video) in the camcorder, it takes
time for the camcorder to respond. It is recommended that you
copy all files from the camcorder onto your computer, and erase
the files from the camcorder.
The camcorder operates
slowly when switching
between video mode
and still image mode,
or when switching the
power on or off.
•
Check the remaining battery pack charge.
•
•
(When the battery pack is fully charged, the lamp does not flash.)
When recharging in either a hot or cold environment, ensure that
battery is being charged within the permitted temperature range.
(If the battery pack is being recharged outside the permitted
temperature range, recharging may stop to protect the battery
pack.)
The lamp does not flash
during battery pack
charging.
Replace the battery.
Set [REMOTE] to [ON].
The remote control may not operate outdoors or in places
exposed to strong light.
•
•
•
The remote control does
not work.
When connecting to the HDMI cable, the image or sound may not
appear on the TV properly depending on the TV connected. In
such cases, perform the following operations.
1) Disconnect the HDMI cable and connect it again.
2) Turn off and on the camcorder again.
When connecting to
the HDMI cable, the
image or sound does
not appear on the TV
properly.
•
•
•
TVs may operate differently depending on the specifications,
even if they are HDMI-CEC compliant. Therefore, the HDMI-CEC
functions of the camcorder cannot be guaranteed to operate in
combination with all the TVs. In such cases, set [HDMI CONTROL]
to [OFF].
HDMI-CEC functions do
not work properly, and
the TV does not work
in conjunction with the
camcorder.
It may occur when you connect the camcorder to a TV with
different language setting using an HDMI cable.
The language on the
display changed.
Ⅵ If a malfunction occurs in the HDD
! Perform [FORMAT HDD]. (All data is deleted.)
# If this does not solve the problem, perform the disc check function from a PC after formatting.
$ If this does not solve the problem, contact the JVC customer service for repairs.
Ⅵ To reset the camcorder when it does not operate normally
! Close the LCD monitor and remove the power supply (battery pack or AC adapter) from the
camcorder, then reattach it.

•
objects that have a strong magnetic field or
that emit strong electromagnetic waves.
to read the following cautions:
Do not store the recording medium in locations
•
with high temperature or high humidity.
Do not touch the metal parts.
•
When formatting or erasing data using
the camcorder, only the file administration
information is changed. The data is not
completely erased from the hard disk. If you
want to completely erase all of the data,
we recommend either using commercially
available software that is specially designed for
that purpose, or by physically destroying the
camcorder with a hammer etc.
•
To avoid hazards
... do not burn.
•
... do not short-circuit the terminals. Keep it away
from metallic objects when not in use. When
transporting, make sure the provided battery
cap is attached to the battery. If the battery cap
is misplaced, carry the battery in a plastic bag.
... do not modify or disassemble.
... do not expose the battery to temperatures
exceeding 60°C (140°F), as this may cause the
battery to overheat, explode or catch fire.

require longer charging time, or in some cases
stop charging at all. Warmer temperatures
prevent complete charging, or in some cases
stop charging at all.
LCD Monitor
... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure
to high temperatures will increase natural
discharge and shorten service life.
... fully charge and then fully discharge the battery
every 6 months when storing the battery pack
over a long period of time.
