NOTES:
● Recording time is reduced significantly under the
following conditions:
• Zoom or record-standby mode is engaged
repeatedly.
• The LCD monitor is used repeatedly.
• The playback mode is engaged repeatedly.
● Before extended use, it is recommended that you
prepare enough battery packs to cover 3 times the
planned shooting time.
ATTENTION:
Before detaching the power source, make sure that
the camcorder's power is turned off. Failure to do so
can result in a camcorder malfunction.
Data Battery System
You can check the remaining battery power and
the recordable time.
1) Make sure the battery is attached and the
power switch is set to "OFF".
2) Open the LCD monitor fully.
3) Press DATA, and the battery status screen
appears.
● It is displayed for approx. 3 seconds if the
button is pressed and released quickly, and for
approx. 15 seconds if the button is pressed
and hold for several seconds.
● If "COMMUNICATION ERROR" appears
instead of the battery status even though you
tried to press DATA several times, there may
be a problem with your battery. In such a case,
consult your nearest JVC dealer.
● The recordable time display should only be
used as a guide. It is displayed in 10 minute
units.
Using AC Power
Perform step 4 in "Charging the Battery Pack".

The provided AC adapter features automatic voltage
selection in the AC range from 110 V to 240 V.
