Recording Playback
NOTES about S-VHS and S-VHS ET
n
JVC EHG (Extra High Grade) tapes are recommended for superior results.
Use S-VHS tape for storing recordings for an extended period or for recording important scenes, as it
enables higher-quality recording and playback.
n
With some tapes, better picture quality may not be obtained even with S-VHS ET recording. It is
recommended that you do test record beforehand to make sure whether better results can be obtained.
n
If the S-VHS ET mode or recording format is switched during recording, the playback picture will be
blurred at the switching point.
n
It is recommended that tapes recorded in the SP mode on this camcorder be played back on this
camcorder.
n
Noise may appear on-screen when tapes recorded in the EP mode are played back.
n
Tapes recorded in S-VHS or S-VHS ET mode can be played back not only on this camcorder but also on
a Super VHS VCR or a VCR equipped with the SQPB (S-VHS QUASI PLAYBACK) function.
— When tapes recorded in S-VHS or S-VHS ET mode are played back on a VCR equipped with the
SQPB (S-VHS QUASI PLAYBACK) function, S-VHS picture quality is not available.
— Tapes recorded in S-VHS ET mode cannot be played back on some VCRs, including some JVC VCRs
(eg: HR-S6600U, HR-SC1000U, etc.).
n
Tapes recorded in S-VHS or S-VHS ET mode cannot be played back correctly on a normal VHS VCR.
n
You can play back S-VHS ET recordings not only on this camcorder but also on another VHS VCR
equipped with S-VHS ET.
— It is recommended to specifically label S-VHS ET recordings so you can easily distinguish them from
regular VHS recordings.
n
S-VHS ET does not work with S-VHS tapes.
n
To avoid on-screen noise, do not perform Still Playback or Shuttle Search repeatedly.
n
If the picture contains a lot of jitter or noise, use a cleaning cassette.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If, after following the steps in the chart below, the problem still exists, please consult your JVC dealer.
The camcorder is a microcomputer-controlled device. External noise and interference (from a TV, a radio,
etc.) might prevent it from functioning properly. In such cases, first disconnect its power supply unit (battery
pack, AC Adapter, etc.); and then re-connect it and proceed as usual from the beginning.
SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE(S)
POWER
No power is supplied.
The power suddenly goes off and
does not come back on by itself.
Recording cannot be performed.
Recording does not start.
Animation or Time-Lapse is not
available.
The tape is running, but there is no
playback picture.
Playback picture is blurred or
interrupted.
The counter indication is blurred
during Still playback.
The tape stops during fast-forward or
rewind.
Rewinding or fast-forwarding cannot
be performed.
●The battery pack has not been attached correctly (Z pg. 6).
●The battery pack is not charged (Z pg. 6).
●The power supply has not been correctly connected
(Z pg. 6, 7).
●The battery pack has completely discharged.
●Remove the cassette and disconnect the power source, then
after a few minutes, try turning the power back on. If it still
does not come on, consult your nearest JVC dealer.
●Make sure the Erase Protection tab is in the position that
allows recording. If not, slide the tab. Some cassettes have
removable tabs. If the tab has been removed, cover the
hole with adhesive tape (Z pg. 13).
●The camcorder Power Switch has not been set to “ ” or
“ ” (Z pg. 14).
●Before recording in the Animation mode at the very
beginning of a tape, set the camcorder to the Recording
mode for about 5 seconds, so that the tape runs smoothly.
Using the Fade-in function at this point is a good way to
begin an animated program (Z pg. 26, 37).
●The TV has not been set to its VIDEO mode or channel.
●If A/V connection is used, the TV’s VIDEO/TV Switch has
not been set to VIDEO.
●The video heads are dirty or worn out. Consult your nearest
JVC dealer for head cleaning or replacement.
●This is normal.
●The Counter Memory Function has been activated
(Z pg. 31).
●The tape is already fully wound on one reel or the other.

SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE(S)
OTHER
During recording, the indications do
not appear.
The tape will not eject.
Some functions are not available.
Vertical white lines appear when
shooting a very bright object.
Bright, crystal-shaped spots appear in
the LCD monitor and the viewfinder.
The rear of the LCD monitor is hot.
Colored bright spots appear all over
the LCD monitor or the viewfinder.
The indicators and the picture color
on the LCD monitor are not clear.
The LCD monitor, the viewfinder and
the lens have become dirty
(ex. fingerprints).
An error number (i.e. E03) appears.
The image is out of focus.
The picture is blurred in the Quick
Review or Retake mode.
The date and time displays
disappear.
The wrong date and time are
displayed/recorded.
Even though the lens cap is detached,
the “LENS CAP” warning indicator
(Z pg. 47) blinks.
●Set “DISPLAY” to “FULL” in SYSTEM MENU (
Z pg. 24).
●The battery pack is running low.
●If the LCD monitor is not open over 60 degrees, the EJECT
Switch does not function.
●The Power Switch is set to “ ”.
●
Certain combinations of modes or effects are not possible to use.
●This sometimes occurs when the contrast between the
background and the object is great. It is not a defect of the
camcorder.
●Sunlight is directly entering the lens. This is not a defect of
the camcorder.
●The light used to illuminate the LCD monitor causes it to be
hot. Close the LCD monitor to turn it off or set the Power
Switch to “OFF”, and let the unit cool down.
●The LCD monitor and the viewfinder are made with high-
precision technology. However, black spots or bright spots
of light (red, green or blue) may appear constantly on the
LCD monitor or in the viewfinder. These spots are not
recorded on the tape. This is not due to any defect of the
unit. (Effective dots: more than 99.99 %.)
●This may occur when the surface or the edge of the LCD
monitor is pressed.
●Wipe them gently with a soft cloth. Gently wipe in a
semicircular motion, as wiping strongly spreads the stain
and it won’t come out easily.
●Turn the camcorder’s power off, then disconnect the power
source. After a few minutes, try turning the power on again.
If the error number still appears in the viewfinder, consult
your nearest JVC dealer.
●The diopter needs to be adjusted (Z pg. 8).
●The scene being shot is adversely affecting the operation of
Auto Focus (Z pg. 28).
●This is normal while recording in the EP mode. Some noise
may be present while recording in the SP mode (
Z pg. 12).
●If you remove the power source from the camcorder while
the power is on, all settings and selections are erased. Make
sure to turn the camcorder’s power off before disconnecting
the power source.
●If you have not performed Date/Time Setting ( pg. 9), theZ
date and time are not displayed/recorded correctly. Be sure
that Date/Time setting is carried out.
●The “LENS CAP” warning indicator may blink when the
camcorder is used in dark areas, regardless of whether the
lens cap is attached or detached.

❍
Perform charging where the temperature is between 10°C and 35°C (50°F
and 95°F). 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F) is the ideal temperature range for
charging. If the environment is too cold, charging may be incomplete.
❍ Charging times are for a fully discharged battery pack.
❍ Charging time varies according to the ambient temperature and the
status of the battery pack.
❍ To avoid interference with reception, do not use the AC Adapter near a
radio.
❍ Since the AC Adapter processes electricity internally, it becomes warm
during use. Be sure to use it only in well-ventilated areas.
❍ The following operation stops charging or discharging:
•Set the Power Switch to “ ”, “ ” or “ ”.
•Disconnect the AC Adapter from the camcorder.
•Unplug the AC Adapter’s power cord from the AC outlet.
•Detach the battery from the camcorder.
❍ The date/time cannot be stored in memory if the built-in clock battery
runs out. Consult an authorized JVC dealer for replacement, or set the
date/time as necessary before you start shooting.
❍ When the Power Switch is set to “ ” or “ ” and the LCD monitor is
opened at an angle of 60 degrees or more, the LCD monitor switches
on and the viewfinder switches off automatically to save power
(models equipped with LCD monitor only).
❍
The cassette holder cannot be opened unless a power supply is attached.
❍ There may be a delay after you slide until the cassette holderEJECT
opens. Do not use force.
❍
The time required to calculate the remaining tape length, and the accuracy of
the calculation, may vary according to the type of tape used.
❍ The tape remaining time indicator is correct only if the correct tape
length has been selected ( pg. 12).Z
❍ “TAPE END” appears when the tape reaches its end, and the power
goes off automatically if left in this condition for 5 minutes.
“TAPE END” also appears when a cassette whose tape is already at its
end is loaded.
❍ If the Recording Start/Stop button is pressed after the Record-Standby
mode has continued for over 5 minutes, recording may not start
immediately.
❍ While shooting, sound is not heard from the speaker (models equipped
with LCD monitor only).
❍ The “TBC” indicator turns green (gray with a camcorder equipped with
a black/white viewfinder) while TBC is working.
❍ TBC does not work during still playback and shuttle search.
❍ The “TBC” indicator turns white while TBC is not operative.
❍ It may take a few seconds before TBC actually starts working.
❍ The picture may be distorted if the TBC mode is activated or
deactivated at the edit-in/-out points or when normal playback resumes
after still playback or shuttle search.
❍ If the playback picture is distorted when TBC is set to on, turn off TBC.

Warning Indications
Indications Function
Displays the battery remaining power.
Remaining power level: high. It does not necessarily
mean that the battery pack is fully charged.
Remaining power level: exhausted
As the battery power comes close to nil, the battery indicator blinks (battery
power warning).
When the battery power is exhausted, power turns off automatically.
Blinks when no cassette is loaded, or when the Erase Protection tab is not in the position
that allows recording. (Z pg. 13)
Appears when the tape ends during recording, playback or fast-forward. (Z pg. 42)
Appears for 5 seconds after power is turned on if the lens cap is attached.
These 2 warnings appear alternately every 3 seconds if condensation occurs. In this case,
all functions except tape eject and power on/off are disabled. Remove the tape, turn the
unit off (without removing the power supply), wait a few minutes for the warnings to
clear, and turn it on again.
These 2 warnings appear alternately every 3 seconds if dirt is detected on the heads
during recording. In this case, use an optional cleaning cassette. If the warning remains
after cleaning, consult your nearest JVC dealer.
The error indications (E01 — E06) show what type of malfunction has occured. If an
error indication and warning appear, turn the unit off, remove the power supply (battery,
etc.) and wait a few minutes for them to clear. When it does, you can resume using the
camcorder. If the indication remains, consult your nearest JVC dealer.
