Unknown red icon on screen of Canon MV830 minidv camera

I've got a Canon MV830 mini dv camera and don;t use it very often but have lost the instruction manual. There is red flashing icon - it looks a bit like a little flat dish and it has a red line going through it - on the screen. It is on the right hand side under the timings and the battery icons. I have no idea what this is or what it means. I am do to film a friends wedding in a couple of weeks and I just want to make sure that this icon has nothing to do with anything important! Many thanks in advance.

    Might it be the "no tape inserted" icon? I just checked my Canon MiniDV camcorder & with no tape there is a red icon in the top-right-hand side of a rectangle with a slash through it.

This is the icon to warn you to replace the back up battery which is housed behind the main battery unit. See page 15 of the manual.

I have a canon MV 830.Please could you tell me when i put the cassette into the camcorder it keeps beeping then asks me to eject the cassette. Is this expensive to fix?

My MV830 would load without a cassette; but freeze, beep 3 times and eject if a cassette was inserted. I read the following thread with a great deal of scepticism and concern that I would damage my MV830 camcorder even more; but what did I have to lose? I loaded the compartment without a cassette, hit it firmly 3 times on the tape loading side and the issue was gone. It now works perfectly! Technology is fantastic...
