2. Attach a power supply to the
camcorder.
Attach a power supply to the
camcorder–either the adapter/charger
or charged battery.
Adapter/Charger: Connect the
power connector’s small plug into the
DC OUTPUT jack on the adapter/
charger. Align the reference arrow on
the power connector with the arrow on
the camcorder. Hold the power
connector flush against the back of the
camcorder, and slide it in the direction
of the arrow as shown. Plug the
adapter/charger’s plug into an
operating outlet. Details are on
page 20.
Charged Battery: *
Match the arrow on the battery to the
arrow on the camcorder. Hold the
battery flush against the camcorder
and slide it in the direction of the
arrow. Details are on pages 21-22.
* The battery must be charged before it can
be used the first time.
4. Turn on the camcorder.
Because your camcorder is both a
camera and a VCR, it performs two
completely separate groups of
functions. The position of the
POWER (CAMERA/OFF/VCR) switch
tells the camcorder whether you want
to record (CAMERA), play back tapes
(VCR), or turn off the camcorder’s
power (OFF). Some of the controls
operate differently depending on the
position of the POWER switch.
• Press and hold the small button on
the POWER switch while sliding it
to the CAMERA position.
