50 EN TROUBLESHOOTING (cont.) SYMPTOM & During recording, the date/ time does not appear. * Time code does not appear. ( Images on the LCD monitor appear dark or whitish. ) The rear of the LCD monitor is hot. q The indicators and the image colour on the LCD monitor are not clear. w The LCD monitor or viewfinder indications blink. POSSIBLE CAUSES • "DATE/TIME" is set to "OFF" in the Menu Screen. • "TIME CODE" is set to "OFF" in the Menu Screen. • In places subject to low temperature, images become dark due to the characteristics of the LCD monitor. When this happens, the displayed colours differ from those that are actually recorded. This is not a defect of the camcorder. • When the LCD monitor's fluorescent light reaches the end of its service life, images on the LCD monitor become dark. Consult your nearest JVC dealer. • The light used to illuminate the LCD monitor causes it to become hot. • This may occur when the surface or the edge of the LCD monitor is pressed. • Certain Fade/Wipe effects, certain modes of Programme AE with special effects, "DIS" and other functions that cannot be used together are selected at the same time. CORRECTIVE ACTION • Set "DATE/TIME" to "ON" in the Menu Screen (੬ pg. 35). • Set "TIME CODE" to "ON" in the Menu Screen (੬ pg. 35, 36). • Adjust the brightness and angle of the LCD monitor (੬ pg. 15, 16). • Close the LCD monitor to turn it off or set the Power Switch to "OFF", and let the unit cool down. ---- • Re-read the sections covering Fade/Wipe effects, Programme AE with special effects and "DIS" (੬ pg. 24 - 27, 33).
