Notes on power sources
• Disconnecting the power source or removing the battery pack during recording or
playback may damage the inserted tape.
• The DC IN jack has priority over the battery pack for supplying the power. Even if
you unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, the battery pack cannot supply the
power to the camcorder as long as the AC power adaptor is connected to the DC IN
jack.
Using the house current
(1) Open the DC IN jack cover, and connect the AC power adaptor to the DC IN
jack on the camcorder.
( 2 ) Connect the power cord to the AC power adaptor.
(3) Connect the power cord to a wall outlet.
WARNING
The power cord must only be changed at a qualified service shop.
PRECAUTION
The set is not disconnected from the AC power source (house current) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the set itself has been turned off.
Note
Keep the AC power adaptor away from the camcorder if the picture is disturbed.
