• Since the AC Adapter processes
electricity internally,
it becomes warm during use. Be sure to use it only in
weft-ventilated
areas.
• The following
operation stops charging:
• Set the Power Switch _) to "PLAY", "Q" or "[] ".
• Disconnect
the AC Adapter from the camcorder.
• Unplug the AC Adapter from the AC outlet.
• Detach the battery from the camcorder.
• This camcorder witl be automatically
turned off if its power
is supplied from the AC adapter and about 5 minutes pass
since it has entered into the recording standby mode with
a cassette insetted. If, under those conditions,
the battery
is attached to the camcorder, its charging will start.
• Using the optional AA-V40U AC PowerAdaptar/Chargeh
you can charge the BN-V408U/V416U/V428U
battery
pack without the camcorder. However, it cannot be used
as an AC adapter.
• To avoid interference
with reception, do not use the AC
Adapter near a radio.
• Perform charging where the temperature
is between
10°C
and 35°C (50°F and 95°F). 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F)
is the ideal temperature
range for charging.
If the
environment
is too cold, charging may be incomplete.

About Batteries
DANGER! DO not attempt to take the batteries apart, or
expose them to flame or excessive heat, as it may
cause a fire or explosion.
WARNING! Do not allow the battery or its terminals to
come in contact with metals, as this can result in a
short circuit and possiblystart a fire.
The Benefits Of Lithium-Ion Batteries
Lithium-ion battery packs are small but have a large
power capacity. However, when one is exposed to cold
temperatures (below 10°C/5O°F), its usage time
becomes shorter and it may cease to function. If this
happens, place the battery pack in your pocket or other
warm, protected place for a short time, then re-attach it
to the camcorder. As long as the battery pack itself is
not cold, it should not affect performance.
(If you're using a heating pad, make sure the battery
pack does not come in direct contact with it.)
