Notes before sending your camcorder for
repair
Your camcorder may require initializing or

change the current hard disk of the camcorder,
depending on the problem. In the event of
this, the data stored on the hard disk will be
deleted. Be sure to save the data on the internal
hard disk (see "Handycam Handbook" (PDF))
on other media (backup) before sending your
camcorder for repair. We will not compensate
you for any loss of hard disk data.
During repair, we may check a minimum

amount of data stored on the hard disk in order
to investigate the problem. However, your Sony
dealer will neither copy nor retain your data.
