NOTES:

In step 3, if the current position is at a blank portion the
camcorder searches in the reverse direction, and if the
current position is at a recorded portion the camcorder
searches in the forward direction.

Blank Search does not work if “HEAD CLEANING
REQUIRED. USE CLEANING CASSETTE” has
appeared with the tape.

If the beginning or end of the tape is reached during
Blank Search, the camcorder stops automatically.

A blank portion which is shorter than 5 seconds of tape
may not be detected.

The detected blank portion may be located between
recorded scenes. Before you start recording, make sure
there is no recorded scene after the blank portion.
