Powering the Camcorder
from an AC Outlet
You can also power the camcorder from a
power outlet by using the supplied AC adapter/
battery charger and DC cable.
Caution:
• The supplied AC adapter/battery charger 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 Align the notch on the side of the DC
cable connecting plate with the = mark
on the camcorder (1), and slide the
connecting plate in the direction of the
arrow completely until it locks into place
(2).
3 Insert the DC cable plug into the DC
OUT jack on the AC adapter. Connect
the supplied power cord to the AC
adapter, and insert the AC plug into a
power outlet.
• The POWER indicator on the AC adapter
lights up, and the camcorder is supplied
power.
Note:
• When using the AC adapter/battery charger to
power the camcorder, it cannot be used to
charge the battery pack.
Removing the DC cable from the
camcorder
Make sure that the Power switch is set to OFF.
Rotate the monitor section of the camcorder
(1), then press the power source release (2).
Slide the battery pack in the direction of the
arrow and take it out (3).
Cautions:
• BEFORE REMOVING THE DC CABLE,
ALWAYS STOP RECORDING OR PLAYBACK
AND TURN THE POWER OFF. Removing the DC
cable while shooting or during playback may
damage the tape by causing it to wrap around
the video head drum or destroy the card,
rendering it unreadble and unwritable.
• Disconnect the camcorder from the AC adapter
if you will not use the camcorder for a long
period of time.
• The supplied DC cable is designed for use only
with the supplied AC adapter/battery charger.
Do not use it with the other equipment, as this
may damage the cable or the equipment.
