Charging The Battery Pack
You can charge one battery pack at a time, or two consecutively.
GETTING STARTED
ATTACH
NOTES:
●
If you connect the camcorder’s DC cord to the
adapter during battery charging, power is
supplied to the camcorder and charging stops.
●
When using the AC Power Adapter/Charger, be
sure to use the supplied power cord only.
●
The AC Power Adapter/Charger is for use with the
BN-V814U or BN-V856U Battery Packs only.
●
When charging the Battery Pack for the first time
or after a long storage period, the Charger
Indicator may not light. In this case, remove the
Battery Pack from the AC Power Adapter/Charger,
then try charging again.
●
Since the AC Power Adapter/Charger processes
electricity internally, it becomes warm during use.
Be sure to use it only in well-ventilated areas.
●
If the battery operation time remains extremely
short even after having been fully charged, the
battery is worn out and needs to be replaced.
Please purchase a new one.
