You can find a downloadable copy of the User Manual after you choose what region (Brazil or Latin America) you're in here:

http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-find.pl?mdl=HDR+XR500

It should provide directions on how to transfer media files to external media. That said, if you still need assistance, I would advise speaking directly with Sony Support.
