NOTES:
The S-Video cable is optional. Be sure to use
the YTU94146A S-Video cable. Consult the
JVC Service Centre described on the sheet
included in the package for details on its
availability. Make sure to connect the end with
a core filter to the camera. The core filter
reduces interference.
It is recommended to use the AC adapter as
the power supply instead of the battery pack.
