It is recommended to use the AC Power Adapter/

pack ( pg. 7).
If your VCR has an S-Video input connector,
connect the camcorder and the VCR using the
provided S-Video cable. This can improve the
dubbed picture quality (GR-SXM46/SXM26/SX41/
SX21 only).
To monitor the picture and sound from the
camcorder without inserting a tape, set the
camcorder's Power Switch to "CAMERA" ("AUTO"
or "PRO."), then set your TV to the appropriate
input mode.
Make sure you adjust the TV sound volume to its
minimum level to avoid a sudden burst of sound
when the camcorder is turned on.
If you have a TV or speakers that are not specially
shielded, do not place the speakers adjacent to the
TV as interference will occur in the camcorder
playback picture.
Set the video out select switch of the cable
adapter* as required:
