    before the product is operated.
    2Retain Instructions — The safety and 
    operating instructions should be retained 
    for future reference.
    3Heed Warnings — All warnings on the 
    product and in the operating instructions 
    should be adhered to.
    4Follow Instructions — All operating and 
    maintenance instructions should be 
    followed.
    5Cleaning — Unplug this product from the 
    wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use 
    liquid or aerosol cleaners. The product 
    should be cleaned only as recommended 
    in this manual.
    6Accessories — Do not use accessories not

    They may cause picture interference, or 
    permanently damage the camera.
    8Water and Moisture — Hazard of electric 
    shock — Do not use this product near 
    water or in rainy/moist situations.
    9Placing or Moving — Do not place on an 
    unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket or 
    table. The  product may fall, causing 
    serious injury to a child or adult, and 
    serious damage to the 
    product.
    A product and cart 
    combination should be 
    moved with care. Quick 
    stops, excessive force, 
    and uneven surfaces may 
    cause the product and cart 
    combination to overturn.
    10Power Sources — The CA-570 Compact 
    Power Adapter should be operated only 
    from the type of power source indicated on 
    the marking label. If you are not sure of the 
    type of power supply to your home, consult 
    your product dealer or local power 
    company. Regarding other power sources 
    such as battery power, refer to instructions 
    in this manual.
    11Polarization — The CA-570 Compact 
    Power Adapter is equipped with a 
    polarized 2-prong plug (a plug having one 
    blade wider than the other).
    The 2-prong polarized plug will fit into the 
    power outlet only one way. This is a safety 
    feature. If you are unable to insert the plug 
    fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If 
    the plug still fails to fit, contact your 
    electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. 
    Do not defeat the safety purpose of the 
    polarized plug.
    12Power Cord Protection — Power cords 
    should be routed so that they are not likely 
    to be walked on or pinched by items placed 
    upon or against them. Pay particular 
    attention to plugs and the point from which 
    the cords exit the product.
    13Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an 
    outside antenna is connected to the 
    product, be sure the antenna is grounded 
    so as to provide some protection against 
    voltage surges and built-up static charges. 
    Section 810 of the National Electrical 
    Code, ANSI / NFPA No. 70—1984, 
    provides information with respect to proper 
    grounding of the mast and supporting 
    structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to 
    an antenna discharge unit, size of 
    grounding conductors, location of antenna 
    discharge unit, connection to grounding 
    electrodes, and requirements for the 
    grounding electrode. See figure 1.

    Introduction
    How to select a DVD disc
    There are many types of DVD discs but this camcorder uses only the following three 
    types of 8 cm mini DVD discs: DVD-R, DVD-R DL and DVD-RW. Note that what you 
    can do with a disc depends on the type of DVD used so select the disc that best fits 
    your purpose.
    DVD-Rs can be recorded only once - you cannot edit or delete the recordings. On the 
    other hand, these discs are comparatively cheaper and they can be played back in 
    most common DVD players.
    Dual-layered discs allow writing up to 80% more data (2.6 GB) on a single recording 
    side. However, DVD-R DLs can only be played back on DVD devices compatible with 
    dual-layered discs. Also, you cannot edit or delete the recordings.
    Dual-layered discs have two recording layers. The camcorder 
    will record on Layer 1 and then continue to Layer 2. During 
    the playback of a recording spanning both layers, you may 
    notice a brief stop (about 1 second) at the point where the 
    camcorder switches to the second layer.
    Recordings made on a DVD-RW disc can be edited or deleted. Also, the disc can be 
    initialized1 allowing you to use the same disc numerous times.
    DVD-RBest for Compatibility
    DVD-R DLBest for Recording Time
    DVD-RWBest for Reusability
    Disc specification on DVD-RWs
    DVD-RW discs can be recorded using either one of two disc specifications: 
    VIDEO mode or VR mode. When you first insert a brand new DVD-RW disc, 
    the camcorder will automatically display the initialization screen where you 
    can select the disc specification for the disc.
    VIDEO mode: Once finalized
    2, discs recorded in VIDEO mode can be played 
    back in most common DVD players offering the best compatibility. However, 
    recordings cannot be edited (deleted, rearranged, etc.).
    VR mode: You can easily edit the recordings. However, discs recorded in VR 
    mode can only be played back with DVD players compatible with DVD-RWs 
    in VR mode.
    Note: DVD-R and DVD-R DL discs can only be recorded in VIDEO mode.

    No need to worry about recording over a tape.
    When you use a DVD, the camcorder will automatically record on the empty space of 
    the disc. So you dont have to worry about mistakenly recording over a precious 
    memory.
    Just select a scene from the index screen.
    You dont need to bother running a tape forwards and backwards to find the scene you 
    want to play back. Simply select a scene from the index screen and start the playback 
    in a breeze.
    Easily edit your recordings on a computer.
    You can transfer your videos and photos from the disc to a computer and easily edit 
    them with editing software. Easily create your own original movies.
    Great Advantages of DVDs
    Why DVDs are better than tapes
    Recommended Discs
    The camcorders performance was tested with single-layered discs using the 
    supplied discs and Hitachi-Maxell HG series DVD discs; and with dual-
    layered discs using Canon DVD-R DL54 discs and Verbatim DVD-R DL discs. 
    For further details, contact directly the manufacturers customer support 
    center. Note that attempting to record or play with this camcorder DVD discs 
    that were recorded, initialized or finalized with other digital devices can result 
    in permanently losing the recordings.
    For the highest compatibility with external DVD devices we recommend 
    using the VIDEO mode.

    Introduction
    Available features depend on the DVD disc used
    1 Disc initialization clears all the recordings on the disc and restores the free space on the disc to its 
    initial value so you can use the same disc again. DVD-R and DVD-R DL discs cannot be initialized. 
    2 Disc finalization is the processing of the free space (the unrecorded area) on the disc in order to 
    make it playable on external DVD devices (  77). To finalize a DVD-R DL disc, the camcorder has 
    to process both layers. Therefore, and depending on the amount of free space on the disc, this 
    process may be lengthy.
    3 Playback cannot be guaranteed with all external DVD devices.4 You will need to unfinalize the disc first.5 The MyDVD for Canon software is not included with the  .
