Powering the Camcorder
1. Connect one end of the adapter/
charger’s cable to the adapter/
charger’s DC OUTPUT jack and the
other end to the DC IN 9.6V jack on
the back of the camcorder.
2. Plug the adapter/charger into the
nearest AC outlet (120V, 50/60 Hz).
3. The POWER indicator on the
adapter/charger will light when it is
properly connected.
Notes: The adapter/charger cannot charge
the battery and operate the camcorder at the
same time. If you connect both, the
adapter/charger will power the camcorder.
Remove the adapter/charger’s cable from
the DC OUTPUT jack to charge the
battery.
When using the adapter/charger to power
the camcorder, the battery level indicator
may display
. This indicator is used
for battery operation and has no meaning
when using the adapter/charger to power
the camcorder.
To Remove the Adapter/Charger
1. Remove the adapter/charger’s plug
from the AC outlet.
2. Remove the adapter/charger’s DC
cable from the DC IN 9.6V jack on the
camcorder.
Caution: Do not attempt to use a “power converter” to use your AC adapter/charger
on a power source other than 120 volts, 50/60 Hz, or the adapter/charger and
camcorder may be damaged. If you wish to operate the AC adapter/charger on a
power source other than 120 volts, 50/60 Hz, use only a transformer-type power
converter. Do not use “solid-state” or “switching-type” power converters. They
will damage your AC adapter/charger. An optional CPS014 shown on page 55 is
designed for use on 100-240 volts, 50/60 Hz.
