Inserting/Ejecting the battery and memory ca,_d • You can use SD SDHC, and SDXC cards with this camcorder, We recornmend you use an SDHC card, This camcorder supports SD cards up to 2GB. We cannot guarantee normal oper_tion with SD cards bigger thar_ 2GB, Terminals MMC (Multi Media Card) and MMC Plus are not supported. Cornpatible memory card capacity: SD: 1GB--2GB SDHC: 4GB--S2GB SDXC: ,-Lip to 64GB <BD> Whet/you use unauthorized memory cards, the camcorder cannot record videos correctly and your recordings may be lost. The mernory cards released alter the release date of this camcorder may not be compatible with the camcorder, • To ensure stable operation, use 6MB/S (Class 6) or above memory cards, SD/SDHC/SDXC rnemory cards have a mechar/ical wnte protection switch, Setting the switch prevents accidental erasure ot files recorded on the card. To enable writing, move the switch up in the direction of the terminals. To set write protection, move the switch down, SDHC/SDXC cards are a higher version of SD memory cards arid provide more rnernory capacity than SD rnernory cards. SD cards can be used with current SD enabled host devices, Getting Started ]7 <SDHC> <SDXC> Inserting/Ejecting • the battery and memo_'y ca,_d Damaged data may not be recoverable. We recommend you make a back up of important data separately on the hard disk of your PC. Turning the power off or removing a memory card during an operation such as formalting, deleting, recording, and playback may cause data loss. If you modify the name of a file or folder stored in the mer//ory card with your PC, your camcorder may not recognize the modified file. The memory card does not support any data recovery mode. Therefore, care should be taken in case the rr_emory card is damaged while recording, Make sure to format the memory card on this camcorder, If the memory card had been formatted by a PC or other device, using it on this carncorder without reformatting it on the camcorder may result in trouble with recording and/or playback. Samsung is not responsible for damage to recorded contents caused by a failure to format the memory card properly. You have to format newly purehased memory cards and memory cards with data that your camcorder cannot recognize or with data saved by other devices, Note that formatting erases all data on the memory card and deleted data cannot be recovered, A memory card has a certain life span, If you cannot record new data, you have to purchase a new mernory card. Do not bend, drop, or subject the card to strong impacts, Do not place foreign substances on the memory card terminals, Use a soft dry cloth to clean the terminals if required. Do not paste anything other than the label provided with the card on the label pasting area of the card. Do not use a damaged memory card, Be careful to keep the memory card out of the reach of children, who might swallow it. The data storage speed of cards may differ, depending on the manufacturer and production system, SLC (single level cell) system: taster write speed enabled. MLC (multi level cell) system: only lower write speed is supported, For best results, we recommend using a memory card that supports a faster write speed. Using a lower write speed memory card for recording video may cause difficulties when storing. You may even lose your video data during the recording. In an altempt to preserve every bit of the recorded video on a low speed card, the camcorder forcibly stores the video on the memory card and displays a warning: Low speed card, Please record at a lower resolution. If you are unavoidably using a low speed mernory card, the resolution and quality of the recording may be lower than the value you set. _page 97 The higher the video resolution and quality, the more memory the camcorder uses, We recorrlmen d using a memory card case to avoid data 10ssthat can be caused by m0ving the card or by static electric!ty, ,, Getting Started ] Alter a period of USe, the memo!}/card and is not a malfunction, may get warm, Th!s is normal Inse_ting/Eiecting the batte_y and memo_'y card 1GB _ 1,000,000,000 as the internal Full HD 1080/60i 7 14 30 61 123 247 497 HD 720/60p 10 21 42 86 174 349 702 Web/HD 9 19 40 81 167 336 665 bytes firmware : Actual formatted uses a portion capacity may be less of the memory.

If you install a battery with the damaged terminal into the camcorder, you can darnage the camcorder. Battery properties A lithium ion battery is small sized and has a high capacity, Low ambient temperature (below 50<;F(10°O)) may shorten its usage time and affect its function. Before recording in low temperatures, put the battery into your pocket to warm it, then install it in the camcorder, • Make sure to store the battery separately after use. A small amount of battery power is cor/sumed when the battery is stored in the camcorder even if the camcorder power is off. The battery may be completely discharged, if it has been installed and left in the camcorder for a long period of time. If this occurs, the battery may not fully operate even if you charge it, If the battery is not used for a long time, fully charge the battery and then, using your camcorder, drain the charge completely once every 3 months to keep the battery functioning properly, To store the battery, remove it from your camcorder and put it in a cool, dry place, The battery terminals can become rusty or malfunction if the battery is stored in a smoky or dusty location, Recycle or dispose of your dead batteries properly. The battery lifetime is limited. Battery capacity decreases over time and through repeated use. If decreased usage time between charges becomes significant, it is probably time to replace the battery with a new one. Each battery's life is affected by storage, operating, and environmental conditions. • Charge an extra battery before using the camcorder outdoors in cold temperatures. The cold temperature may shorten the available recording time. Carry the supplied AC power adaptor to charge the battery while travelling, Getting Started Remove the battery and the memory card from the camcorder and disconnect the power adaptor after use. Store the battery in a stable, cod and dry place, (Recornmended temperature : 59°F - 77°F (15°0--25°C), recornmended humidity: 40%--60%) Temperatures that are too high or too low shorten the battery lifetime, 23 Tu rningyou r camco rder on/off [Home (In')] button _' • The cerncoroer operates the seEf*dlagnosls function WNeNyou turn It :_n, _pages 108-113 e If the Quick On STBY tunctl _- s set to 5 Min and you close the LCD screen when tne _ower is or- the nOW6 savlnc --bage The camooraer _aaDt( oDer LCD screen _oae aouvates 105 tulns on automatically if you comect the AC powel Dr _nsert_ne battery _n]) tne carscor_er wltn the LOB _oreer • ,3 C/;II'//COIL#©F OF/lie/IF_I /vnen you use _ )ur camcorder l[('e; for the t 3t time or reset IT [ne time zone screen appears at start-up.
