IMPORTANT
You may hear some noise from the compact
power adapter during use. This is not a

We recommend charging the battery pack in
temperatures between 10 °C and 30 °C (50 °F
and 86 °F). Outside the temperature range of
0 °C to 40 °C (32 °F to 104 °F), the charging will
not start.
Do not connect to the camcorder’s DC IN
terminal or to the compact power adapter any
electrical equipment that is not expressly
recommended for use with this camcorder.
To prevent equipment breakdowns and
excessive heating, do not connect the supplied
compact power adapter to voltage converters for
