Preparing the Power Supply

You can power the camcorder using a battery pack or directly using the compact power adapter. If you connect
the compact power adapter to the camcorder while a battery pack is attached, the camcorder will draw power
from the power outlet.

Using a Battery Pack

You can power the camcorder using the supplied BP-A30 Battery Pack or the optional BP-A60 Battery Pack.
Both battery packs are compatible with Intelligent System so you can check the approximate remaining battery
usage time (in minutes) on the screen. For more accurate readings, when using a battery pack for the first time,
charge it fully and then use the camcorder until the battery pack is completely exhausted.
Charging the Battery Pack
Charge battery packs using the supplied CG-A20 Battery
Charger and CA-CP200 L Compact Power Adapter, or using an
optional CG-A10 Battery Charger. Before charging, remove the
terminal cover of the battery pack.
1 Connect the power cord to the supplied CA-CP200 L
Compact Power Adapter.
2 Plug the compact power adapter's power cord into a power
outlet.
3 Connect the compact power adapter's DC plug to the battery
charger.
4 Attach the battery pack to the battery charger.
• Press lightly and slide the battery pack in the direction of
the arrow until it clicks.
• The CHARGE indicator starts flashing and also indicates
the battery pack's approximate charge. The indicator will
stay on when charging has completed.
approx. 0% to 49%: Flashes once every 2 seconds
approx. 50% to 74%: Flashes twice every 2 seconds
approx. 75% to 99%: Flashes 3 times every 2 seconds
5 When the battery pack is fully charged, remove it from the battery charger.
6 Disconnect the DC plug from the battery charger.
7 Unplug the power cord from the power outlet and disconnect the power cord from the compact power
adapter.
IMPORTANT
• Do not connect to the battery charger any product that is not expressly recommended for use with this
camcorder.
• When using the battery charger or compact power adapter, do not fix it permanently to one place as this may
cause a malfunction.
