USING AN OPTIONAL DC
ADAPTER
You can use a DC adapter (CMC No. T16-
CC70A, not supplied) to power your camcorder.
Cautions:
• Your vehicle must have a 12-volt, negative-
ground electrical system.
• The recommended DC adapter is specially
designed for use with your camcorder.
Never use it to power any other device.
• Use only the recommended DC adapter to
power the camcorder from your vehicle.
Using a DC adapter other than the recom-
mended DC adapter could seriously dam-
age your camcorder and the DC adapter.
• Always connect the DC adapter to the cam-
corder before you plug it into your vehicle's
cigarette-lighter socket, and unplug the DC
adapter from the cigarette-lighter socket
before you unplug it from the camcorder.
Follow these steps to power the camcorder from
your vehicle's battery:
1. Connect the DC adapter's barrel plug to the
DC IN jack on the back of the camcorder.
2. Plug the DC adapter into your vehicle's cig-
arette-lighter socket.
Notes:
• Be sure to push the plug completely into
the cigarette-lighter socket.
• Be sure the socket is free from ashes
and other debris.
