Powering the Camcorder
from Your Car Battery
Use the optional SDC100 car battery adapter
(shown on page 58) to power the camcorder from
your car battery.
1
Open the battery compartment door
release on the bottom of the camcorder
and insert the DC cable connecting plate
in the camcorder.
2
Pass the DC cable through the battery
compartment notch, then close the battery
compartment door.
3
Insert the DC cable plug into the DC OUT
jack on the car battery adapter.
4
Start the car engine and leave it idling.
Then, insert the power cord plug of the car
battery adapter into the cigarette lighter
socket.
Note:
• See the SDC100 operation manual for details.
Cautions:
• Use only in DC 12 V or 24 V negative ground
system cars. Positive-ground car batteries
CANNOT BE USED. Check your car operation
manual or consult a local car dealer.
• Use the car battery adapter only when the car is
idling or being driven. Otherwise, the car’s
battery will be drained.
• Before starting the car engine, the car battery
adapter must be unplugged from the cigarette
lighter socket.
• Before removing either the DC plug or the
cigarette lighter plug, the camcorder’s Power
switch should be set to OFF.
• Do not apply strong force to the DC cable
connected to the camcorder as this will cause a
malfunction.
