Can I use another brand battery on my camera?
You can use another brand battery on your JVC camera as long as it meets the same specs as the original battery, however we recommend that you use a JVC battery to assure optimum performance from the battery and camera. If the camera is damaged by a third party battery the warranty will be voided and it will be up to the customer to cover the repair charges.
What is the significance of the “U”at the end of the model number?
The “U” at the end of the model number stands for a product designed for sale and use in the United States. There will be some listings that will not show the “U”. If this product is for sale in the United States, it is safe to presume that these are the identical products. Note: that any other suffix (such as “E” ) on a “Consumer Camera” sold in the United States is considered “Gray Market”, and may not be covered by warranty in the United States.
How do I make a copy from a camcorder to a VCR ?
Connect audio and video outputs of the playing camcorder or the audio and video input of the recording VCR. Set the recording VCR to AUX or Line Input setting. On most JVC VCR’s we use channel 0 for AUX. (F1 or L1 will appear on the front panel). If you have another manufacturers VCR, please refer to that owners manual for the proper setting.
Noise block doring playback of D-VHS tapes
* Do not record program in DVHS mode on an S-VHS cassette. Use of S-VHS cassettes will not allow for maximum performance and may result in head clogging. Use only D-VHS cassettes as recommended in the instruction manual on page 27.
* Make sure that the DIGITAL 3-DNR lamp is ON when playing back a cassette recorded in D-VHS mode. If not press DIGITAL 3-DNR so that the DIGITAL 3-DNR indicator illuminates.
* When block noise appears on the TV screen, clean the video heads with the DFC-2 D-VHS Head Cleaning Cassette (continue up to 3 minutes total). Please refrain from using any other head cleaning cassettes as drum damage may result.

Why won't my digital camera charge via USB anymore?
Take camera and its battery to a camera outlet, ask them to check the built-in rechargeable battery.
Most outlets will help you with this, as its likely that if the battery has failed, you'll buy a replacement from the same dealer.
