Powering the
Camcorder from an AC
Outlet
You can also power the camcorder from a
power outlet by using the supplied AC adapter.
Caution:
• The supplied AC adapter is specially designed
for use with this camcorder, and should not be
used as a power supply for other camcorders.
1 Make sure that the Power switch is set
to OFF.
2 Plug the AC adapter into a power outlet
(1), then insert the DC plug into the DC
input jack (2).
• The camcorder is supplied power.
3 Hold down the Lock button
and set the Power switch to
CAMERA or VCR.
Note:
• When using the AC adapter to power the
camcorder, the battery pack is not charged.
Cautions:
• BEFORE REMOVING THE DC PLUG, ALWAYS
STOP RECORDING OR PLAYBACK AND TURN
THE POWER OFF. Removing the DC plug while
shooting or during playback may damage the
tape by causing it to wrap around the video
head drum.
• Disconnect the camcorder from the AC adapter
if you will not use the camcorder for a long
period of time.
