To save battery power, the Camcorder (when battery operated)
switches itself off automatically in the following situations:
(1) When left for longer than 5 minutes in the Stop mode.
(2) When left for longer than 5 minutes in the Recording Standby
mode.
To protect the tape, the Camcorder (regardless of whether
battery operated or AC powered) releases tape tension slightly
and switches itself off automatically if left for longer than 5
minutes in the Recording Standby mode.
For the same reason, the Camcorder enters the Stop mode and
switches Itself off automatically if left for longer than 5 minutes
in the Still (Play-pause) mode.
