CAUTIONS

When using the AC Power Adapter/Charger in
areas other than the USA
The provided AC Power Adapter/Charger features
automatic voltage selection in the AC range from
110 V to 240 V.
USING HOUSEHOLD AC PLUG ADAPTER
In case of connecting the unit's power cord to an
AC wall outlet other than American National
Standard C73 series type use an AC plug adapter,
called a "Siemens Plug", as shown.
For this AC plug adapter, consult your nearest JVC
dealer.
INFORMATION
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation. Change or modifications not
approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment. This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

Battery Packs
The supplied battery pack is a
lithium-ion battery. Before using the
supplied battery pack or an optional
battery pack, be sure to read the
following cautions:
1. To avoid hazard . . .
.... do not burn.
.... do not short-circuit the terminals.
.... do not modify or disassemble.
.... do not expose the battery to temperatures exceeding
60°C, as this may cause the battery to overheat,
explode or catch fire.
.... use only specified chargers.
2. To prevent damage and prolong service life . . .
.... do not subject to unnecessary shock.
.... charge in an environment where temperatures are
within the tolerances shown in the chart below. This
is a chemical reaction type battery—cooler
temperatures impede chemical reaction, while
warmer temperatures can prevent complete charging.
.... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to high
temperatures will increase natural discharge and
shorten service life.
.... fully charge and then fully discharge the battery once
a year when storing the battery pack over a long
period time.
.... remove from charger or powered unit when not in
use, as some machines use current even when
switched off.
NOTES:
It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after
charging, or after use.
Temperature Range Specifications
Charging ....................................... 10°C to 35°C
Operation ..................................... 0°C to 40°C
Storage .......................................... –10°C to 30°C
Recharging time is based on room temperature of 20°C.
The lower the temperature, the longer recharging takes.
Cassettes
To properly use and store your cassettes, be sure to read the
following cautions:
1. During use . . .
.... make sure the cassette bears the Mini DV mark.
.... be aware that recording onto prerecorded tapes
automatically erases the previously recorded
video and audio signals.
.... make sure the cassette is positioned properly when
inserting.
.... do not load and unload the cassette
repeatedly without allowing the tape to run at all.
This slackens the tape and can result in damage.
.... do not open the front tape cover. This exposes the
tape to fingerprints and dust.
2. Store cassettes . . .
.... away from heaters or other heat sources.
.... out of direct sunlight.
.... where they won't be subject to unnecessary shock or
vibration.
.... where they won't be exposed to strong magnetic
fields (such as those generated by motors, transform-
ers or magnets).
.... vertically, in their original cases.
