Step 1 Preparing the power supply
Notes
•Prevent metallic objects from coming into contact with the metal parts of the DC plug
of the AC power adaptor. This may cause a short-circuit, damaging the AC power
adaptor.
•Keep the battery pack dry.
•When the battery pack is not to be used for a long time, charge the battery pack fully,
and then use it until it fully discharges again. Do this once a year. Keep the battery
pack in a cool place.
When the battery pack is charged fully
The LCD backlight of the display window is turned off.
Remaining battery time indicator
The remaining battery time indicator in the display window roughly indicates the
recording time with the viewfinder.
Until your camcorder calculates the actual remaining battery time
"– – – – min" appears in the display window.
While charging the battery pack, no indicator appears or the indicator flashes in
the display window in the following cases:
– The battery pack is not installed correctly.
– Something is wrong with the battery pack.
If the power may go off although the battery remaining indicator indicates that
the battery pack has enough power to operate
Charge the battery pack fully again so that the indication on the battery remaining
indicator is correct.
When you use the AC power adaptor
Place the AC power adaptor near a wall outlet. If any trouble occurs with this unit,
disconnect the plug from the wall outlet as soon as possible to cut off the power.
