Playing Back Your Recording on Your TV
Depending on the setup of your video equipment, you connect the camcorder in one of the 3 methods explained
below.
Note: The letters and symbols are displayed on the LCD monitor in color, but they are in black-and-white on
the TV screen.
Note: Decrease the sound volume of the camcorder when you play back a recording by connecting the
camcorder to your TV. If the volume of the camcorder is set to maximum, the played back picture may be
distorted.
