Unfinalize a disc to allow recording
additional movies on the disc even after it
was finalized.
IMPORTANT
Be sure to unfinalize the disc in normal room
temperatures. If the procedure was not completed
correctly due to high temperature, let the camcorder
cool off before resuming operation.
Place the camcorder on a table or other stable
surface before starting the procedure. Subjecting
the camcorder even to slight impacts (for example to
place it on a table or to disconnect the AV cable)
after the unfinalization process started may result in
permanent data loss.
Always power the camcorder using the
compact power adapter. The operation cannot
be started if the camcorder is powered only with
the battery pack.
Avoid the following actions while the
operation is in progress. Failing to do so can
interrupt the process and result in permanent
data loss.
- Do not move the camcorder.
- Do not disconnect the compact power
adapter.
Only discs that were finalized using this
camcorder can be unfinalized with it.
POINTS TO CHECK
Power the camcorder using the compact
power adapter.
