Checking the Remaining Battery Charge
When the camera is turned on, you can check the approximate remaining battery usage time (in minutes) by
looking at any recording/playback screen or the [Battery/Hour Meter] status screen (
A
187). You can also
check the approximate charge level on the battery pack itself.
Press the CHECK button on the battery pack. An
indicator will light for approximately 3 seconds and show
the approximate remaining battery charge.

Using a Power Outlet
You can also power the camera directly from a power outlet using the supplied CA-A10 AC Adapter. While the
camera is powered using a power outlet, you can replace the battery pack even when the camera is turned on.
North America only: The power cord for the CA-A10 AC Adapter is different from that for the CA-CP200B
Compact Power Adapter. If you do not use the correct power cord, it will not connect to the AC adapter.
Attaching the Ferrite Core
Before using the supplied CA-A10 AC Adapter, attach the supplied ferrite core to the power cord. This can help
reduce the likelihood of RF interference.
1 Attach the ferrite core to the power cord about 4 cm (1.6 in.) from the plug that
goes into the AC adapter.
2 Pass the cable through the center of the core and wrap it around the core
twice and close the ferrite core.
• For use in North America, you only need to wrap the cable around the core
once.
