1. Plug the adapter/charger into the
nearest AC outlet (100-240V,
50/60Hz).
2. Place the battery on the adapter/
charger, and press it in place.
3. The adapter/charger’s CHARGE
indicator will light.
When the CHARGE indicator turns
off, the battery is fully charged.
If POWER on the adapter/charger starts
flashing, remove the plug from the outlet
for about 30 seconds. Then reattach it. If
after several attempts, POWER continues
to flash, your battery cannot take a charge
and must be replaced.
POWER will also flash if a hot battery is
attached to the adapter/charger. Attaching
an extremely hot battery is not
recommended. Allow it to cool down
before attaching it.
4. Slide the charged battery off the
adapter/charger and attach it to the
camcorder as shown on the next page.

take approximately one hour. When fully charged, the battery should supply about
45-55 minutes of operating time (depending on how much you use zoom and pause).
