Using a Household Power Source
Connect to a household power source to use the camcorder without worrying about the
battery power. You can keep the battery pack attached; the battery power will not be
consumed.
1. Turn the POWER switch to OFF.
2. Connect the power cord to the
power adapter.
3. Plug the power cord into a power
outlet.
4. Connect the power adapter to the
camcorder’s DC IN terminal.
 Turn off the camcorder before connecting or disconnecting the power adapter.
 If the adapter is used close to a TV, it may cause picture interference. Move the
adapter away from the TV or the antenna cable.
 Do not connect any products that are not expressly recommended to the
camcorder’s DC IN terminal or to the power adapter.
 You may hear some noise from the power adapter during use. This is not a
malfunction.
 Do not disconnect and reconnect the power cord while charging a battery pack.
Charging may stop. The battery pack may not be charged correctly even if the
CHARGE indicator glows steady. The battery pack may also not be charged
correctly when a power outage occurs during charging. Remove the battery
pack and attach it back to the camcorder.
 When the power adapter or battery pack is defective, the CHARGE indicator
flashes rapidly (at about 2 flashes/second) and charging stops.
 The CHARGE indicator informs you about the charge status.
0-50%: Flashes once every second
More than 50%: Flashes twice every second
100%: Glows steadily
