Using a Household Power Source
You can operate the camcorder from a household power source using the supplied
power adapter. The power adapter converts current from a power outlet (100-240 V
AC, 50/60 Hz) to the DC current used by the camcorder.
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.
5. After use, turn off the camcorder and disconnect the power adapter
from the camcorder. Unplug the power cord from the power outlet and
disconnect it from the adapter.
❍
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.
