First-Time Operation
Charging on the Docking
Station
If the camcorder is attached to the Docking
Station, the battery pack in the camcorder can be
charged automatically and continuously. The
Docking Station keeps your camcorder ready to
operate at any time.
1 Attach the AC adapter to the Docking
Station and insert the AC plug into a
power outlet (see page 7).
2 Insert the battery pack in the camcorder
(see page 9).
• Make sure that the Power switch is set to
OFF. Charging is not possible when the
camcorder is in the VCR or Camera mode.
3 Attach the camcorder to the Docking
Station with the LCD monitor facing the
Docking Station’s LED lamp window side
(Q). Then slide the camcorder securing
lever on the Docking Station in the
direction of the arrow to the lock position
(W). Charging starts automatically.
Caution:
• If you remove the camcorder from the Docking
Station without first setting the Power switch to OFF
while the battery pack is in the camcorder, the
power may turn off and not turn on even if you set
the Power switch to CAMERA or VCR.
Charging Two Battery Packs at the
Same Time
You can charge two battery packs at the same
time using the Docking Station unit.
1 Attach the first battery pack to the AC
adapter/battery charger.
2 Insert the second battery pack in the
camcorder and attach the camcorder to
the Docking Station.
• The battery pack on the AC adapter/battery
charger will be charged first and then the
battery pack in the camcorder will be
charged.
• The charge level of the battery pack in the
camcorder can be monitored by removing
the camcorder from the Docking Station
and setting it to Camera or VCR mode.
Note:
• Charging the battery pack fully in the camcorder on
the Docking Station will take approximately 11 hours
with BB75. If you are in a hurry, we recommend you
use the AC adapter.
Removing the Camcorder from the
Docking Station
Press the camcorder
release button and
remove the camcorder.
Note:
• If the camcorder is removed from the Docking
Station, the battery pack inside will naturally
discharge with time, even after it has been fully
charged. We recommend you place the camcorder
on the Docking Station even when it is not in use.
Cautions:
• Do not use excessive force with the camcorder
and/or Docking Station. Doing so may cause
damage or malfunction.
• When installing the camcorder on the Docking
Station, be sure to lock it firmly with the securing
lever. When removing, hold the camcorder firmly
while releasing the lock so that the camcorder will
not fall over.
