SWITCHING TO THE POWER SAVING MODE

If you need to use the camcorder for an extended time, the following functions enable you to prevent unnecessary energy consumption.

In STBY mode:

The camcorder switches to "Quick On STBY" mode when you close the LCD screen. page 96

In Playback mode (Includes the thumbnail view mode):

The camcorder switches to the sleep mode when you close the LCD screen, and then, if idle for more than 20 minutes, the camcorder turns off.

However, if you set Auto Power Off to 5 Min, the camcorder turns off in 5 minutes.

If you open the LCD screen or connect a cable to the camcorder when the camcorder is in sleep mode, the camcorder exits sleep mode and returns to the last active operation.

The power saving mode does not work in the following situations:

-When the camcorder has a cable connection. (USB, Component/AV, or HDMI)

-While recording, playing back, or running a slideshow.

-When the LCD screen is opened.

The camcorder consumes battery power in the power saving mode (about 50% of the power consumed in the standby mode) However, if you plan to use the camcorder for the maximum

length of time without recharging, we recommend you turn off the camcorder by pressing the

power (SWITCHING TO THE POWER SAVING MODE) button when not using it.
