Step 1 Preparing the power supply

Charging the battery pack

Use the battery pack after charging it for your camcorder.
Your camcorder operates only with the “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack (L series).

(1) Open the DC IN jack cover and connect the AC power adaptor supplied with

your camcorder to the DC IN jack with the plug’s v mark facing up.

(2) Connect the power cord to the AC power adaptor.

(3) Connect the power cord to a wall outlet.

(4) Set the POWER switch to OFF (CHARGE). Charging begins. The remaining

battery time is indicated in minutes on the display window.

When the remaining battery indicator changes to u, normal charge is completed. To
fully charge the battery (full charge), leave the battery pack attached for about 1 hour
after normal charge is completed until FULL appears in the display window. Fully
charging the battery allows you to use the battery longer than usual.

After charging the battery pack

Disconnect the AC power adaptor from the DC IN jack on your camcorder.

Notes
•Prevent metallic objects from coming into contact with the metal parts of the DC plug

of the AC power adaptor. This may cause a short-circuit, damaging the AC power
adaptor.

•Keep the battery pack dry.
•When the battery pack is not to be used for a long time, charge the battery pack once

fully, and then use it until it fully discharges again. Keep the battery pack in a cool
place.

The LCD backlight of the display window is turned off.
