The provided AC Adapter features automatic voltage
selection in the AC range from 110 V to 240 V.
USING HOUSEHOLD AC PLUG ADAPTER
In case of connecting the unit’s AC Adapter to an AC
wall outlet other than American National Standard C73
series type use an AC plug adapter, called a “Siemens
Plug”, as shown.
For this AC plug adapter, consult your nearest JVC
dealer.
Video Light
DANGER:
• The video light becomes extremely hot. Do not touch
it either while in operation or soon after turning it off,
otherwise serious injury may result.
• Do not place the camcorder into the carrying case
immediately after using the video light, since it
remains extremely hot for some time.
• When operating, keep a distance of about 30 cm
(11-13/16" ft.) between the video light and people or
object.
• Do not use near flammable or explosive materials.
• It is recommended that you consult your nearest JVC
dealer for replacing the video light.
General Battery Precautions
If the remote control or cassette adapter is not function-
ing even if it is being operated correctly, the batteries are
exhausted. Replace them with fresh ones.
Use only the following batteries:
Remote control .................... AAA (R03) size x 2
(RM-V715U)
Cassette adapter .................. AA (R6) size x 1
(C-P6U or C-P7U)
Please make note of the following rules for battery use.
When misused, the batteries can leak or explode.
1.
When replacing batteries, refer to page 50 for the
remote control, or read the cassette adapter
(C-P6U/C-P7U) instructions.
2. Do not
use any different size of batteries from those
specified.
3.
Be sure to install batteries in the correct direction.
4. Do not

Battery Packs
The battery packs are nickel-cadmium
or nickel metal-hydride batteries. Before
using the supplied battery pack or an
optional battery pack, be sure to read
the following cautions:
1. To avoid hazard . . .
....
do not
burn.
....
do not
short-circuit the terminals.
....
do not
modify or disassemble.
.... use only specified chargers.
2. To prevent damage and prolong service
life . . .
....
do not
subject to unnecessary shock.
.... avoid repeated charging without fully discharging.
.... charge in an environment where temperatures are
within the tolerances shown in the chart below.
This is a chemical reaction type battery—cooler
temperatures impede chemical reaction, while
warmer temperatures can prevent complete
charging.
.... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to
high temperatures will increase natural discharge
and shorten service life.
.... avoid prolonged uncharged storage.
.... remove from charger or powered unit when not in
use, as some machines use current even when
switched off.
NOTES:
●
It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after
charging, or after use.
Temperature Range Specifications
Charging ................ 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F)
Operation .............. 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)
Storage .................. –10°C to 30°C (14°F to 86°F)
●
Recharging time is based on room temperature of 20°C
(68°F.)
●
The lower the temperature, the longer recharging
takes.
Cassettes
To properly use and store your cassettes, be sure to read
the following cautions:
1. During use . . .
.... make sure the cassette bears the S-VHS-C or
VHS-C mark.
.... be aware that recording onto prerecorded tapes
automatically erases the previously recorded
video and audio signals.
.... make sure the cassette is positioned properly
when inserting.
.... do not load and unload the cassette
repeatedly without allowing the tape to run at all.
This slackens the tape and can result in damage.
.... do not open the front tape cover. This exposes the
tape to fingerprints and dust.
