Getting Started
On the battery pack
• Before changing the battery pack, slide the
POWER switch to OFF (CHG).
• The CHG (charge) lamp flashes during charging,
or BATTERY INFO (p.47) will not be correctly
displayed under the following conditions.
– The battery pack is not attached correctly.
– The battery pack is damaged.
– The battery pack is fully discharged.
(For BATTERY INFO only.)
• The power will not be supplied from the battery
as long as the AC Adaptor is connected to the DC
IN jack of your camcorder, even when the power
cord is disconnected from the wall outlet.
• We recommend that you use an NP-FP70, NP-
FP71 or NP-FP90 battery pack when a video light
(optional) is attached.
On the charging/recording/playback time
• Times measured with the camcorder at 25 °C
(77°F). (10-30°C (50-86°F) is recommended.)
• Available recording and playback time will be
shorter when you use your camcorder in low
temperatures.
• The available recording and playback time will
be shorter depending on the conditions under
which you use your camcorder.
On the AC Adaptor
• Connect the AC Adaptor to an easily accessible
wall outlet close by. If any trouble occurs while
using the adaptor, immediately shut off the power
by disconnecting the plug from the wall outlet.
• Do not use the AC Adaptor placed in a narrow
space, such as between a wall and furniture.
• Do not short-circuit the DC plug of the AC
Adaptor or battery terminal with any metallic
objects. This may cause a malfunction.
PRECAUTION
• The set is not disconnected from the AC power
source (house current) as long as it is connected
to the wall outlet, even if the set itself has been
turned off.
