Powering Your Camcorder
Before operating your camcorder, you will need to use the power adapter to:
Provide power from an AC outlet
or
Charge a battery pack
Notes:
The power adapter converts current from a household power socket (100–240 V
AC, 50/60 Hz) to the DC current used by your camcorder.
If the adapter is used next to a TV, it may cause bars to appear on the TV —
move the adapter away from the TV or the antenna cable.
