Charging the battery at low temperature may take longer or the
battery may not charge fully (green indicator will not turn on).
Please make sure that there are no foreign substances on the plug
or in the socket when you connect the AC power supply to the
camcorder.
When using the AC power supply, place it close to the wall outlet. If
you experience a malfunction while using the camcorder, separate
the AC power supply immediately from the wall outlet.
Do not use the AC power supply in a tight space, such as between
furnishings.

•
When recording indoors with a wall outlet available, it is convenient to use
the AC power supply instead of the battery.
We recommend you charge the battery in a place with an ambient
temperature between 50˚F and 86˚F ( 10°C ~ 30°C).
When charging, if both the USB cable and AC power adaptor are
connected, the AC power adaptor will override the USB.
If the camcorder is turned on, the battery will still charge, but more
charging time will be needed. We recommend you keep the camcorder
turned off while it charges.
